1.Important information
1.1 Compulsory calibration
Installation and/or repair may only be performed by trained and
instructed service staff at Robert Bosch GmbH or by an organization nominated by Robert Bosch GmbH. All warranty claims are
rendered null and void in the event that any devices are opened
or modified by a non-authorized person.
Electrical systems and equipment may only be operated in proper
working condition (see also Test Equipment Information
0108_084). This requirement is met if it is ensured following a
modification or repair (initial test) that the applicable electrical
engineering standards have been complied with. To this end,
tests based on the type and scope of measures specified in the
electrical engineering standards (e.g. in Germany BGV A2) are to
be carried out. The type and scope of tests to be carried out is
specified for Germany in VDE 0701/0702 Part 1. Compliance
with the corresponding national standards for countries outside
Germany must be ensured.
When the BEA is used in systems for which calibration is required
by law, legal provisions in the country of use regarding operation,
maintenance and calibration must be observed.
The BEA carries dangerous contact voltage. Unsatisfactory or insufficient maintenance and repair work may
lead to a risk of accident through electric shock.
The regulations governing the calibration of exhaust-gas analyzers in the specific country of use must be complied with.
At half-yearly intervals
the BEA must be serviced by expert, instructed persons.
If an official test seal is broken during such work, proper and
expert repair must be performed and confirmed by the authorized
Service Agent and a new calibration undertaken by the responsible calibration authorities.
Service work
must be recorded in writing, including the following information:
zTime of service
zType of service work undertaken
zName of person or company performing the work
These records must be preserved for the duration of five years.
The Operating Instructions must be kept with the BEA so that they
are available at all times.
The owner of the BEA is responsible for compliance
with calibration laws and for regular service and
maintenance.
The BEA must not be used to measure explosive gases.
The exhaust-gas analyzer must not be operated in
rooms where there is a risk of explosion.
During work with toxic gases, care must be taken to
ensure that a concentration which is hazardous to
health cannot arise in the workplace.
Improperly conducted maintenance and repair work
may lead to a risk of intoxication when working with toxic
gases.
In order to save on calibrating-gas bottles, we recommend a
calibrating-gas bottle filled with mixed gases:
z1 laptop or PC
zP100
zP140
zService software for BEA
zESA module system software to test Engine test functions

3.Brief description of unit functions and
Servicing the unit
3.1Exhaust-gas analyzer module
The exhaust-gas analyzer module is designed for the following
measuring ranges:
The BEA performs a self-test during which it checks all its most
important functions. Any malfunctions detected result in an error
message (Section 8).
3.1.4 Adjustment (HC, CO and CO
measuring channels)
2
During 1-point adjustment (recalibration) with calibrating gas, the
measurement effect (difference from zero) is measured. The
analyzer module is informed by means of a nominal value as to
which concentration of calibrating gas corresponds to this
measurement effect.
You may preselect different adjustment options which vary in type
and frequency, to suit your application.
The measuring channels for HC, CO and CO

function using the
2
This technique makes use of the ability of different gases to
absorb infrared rays of a certain wavelength.
An infrared ray is produced by a lamp and interrupted in cycles by
a chopper wheel, then it passes through analysis systems for CO,
HC and CO
sensitive to infrared light of different wavelengths and can there-
in succession. The individual analysis systems are
2
fore be mechanically arranged one behind the other.
Each of these systems consists of an analysis chamber through
which test gas flows, and a receiving chamber filled with a suitable
gas mixture.
The systems are constructed in such a way that when zero gas
(air) flows through the analysis chamber, a maximum electric
alternating-voltage signal – the measured-value signal – is generated in the receiving chambers.
The signal is amplified by the appropriate channel amplifier,
rectified and conveyed on the motherboard to an analog-to-digital
converter (ADC). The digitalized signal is read and stored by the
MPU.
When test gas containing the component to be measured flows
through the analysis chambers, component-specific wavelengths
of the infrared ray are attenuated accordingly. A smaller measured-value signal is generated in the receiving chambers (see gas
circuit diagram, Section 12.5).
3.1.2 System calibration
System calibration is always started automatically when the
system switches to a measuring mode and the infrared measured
values at this moment differ from zero.
During system calibration, a solenoid valve switches the zero-gas
inlet (with carbon canister) into the test-gas duct for the duration
of calibration. During this process, zero gas (air) is used to
determine the actual system sensitivity of the HC, CO and CO
measuring channels. This value is then stored as the zero point.
If the exhaust-gas analyzer module is still in analysis mode after
15 minutes, system calibration is repeated. Here, the analyzer
module automatically checks whether analysis is currently taking
place and, if it is, delays system calibration until all measured
values have fallen to zero.
3.1.5 O
measuring channel
2
The sensitivity of this measuring channel is adjusted automatically
during each system calibration. During this process, the measured oxygen content is set against the compensating air = 20.9 %
and the condition of the O
zero point of the O
cally.

measuring sensor is monitored. The
2
measuring channel is recognised automati-
The oxygen measurement function can be deactivated
(Section 4.5, Write parameters
menu).
3.1.6 Compensation of pressure influence
Different levels of atmospheric pressure mean that different
concentrations are measured in the analysis system. In order for
the exhaust-gas analyzer module to achieve a correct measurement, the atmospheric pressure to be taken into consideration is
determined by means of an integral pressure sensor. The exhaustgas analyzer module can then calculate the correct displayed
value itself.
3.1.7 Compensation of temperature influence
Temperature sensors are situated on the receiving chambers and
on the infrared lamp. The operating temperatures measured there
are automatically taken into account during the adjustment of the
exhaust-gas analyzer module and the conversion of the measured
value to the displayed value.
3.1.8 Measurement of excess-air factor (lambda)
The exhaust-gas analyzer module calculates the excess-air factor
(lambda λ) from the measured concentrations of CO, HC, CO
2
and O2. The lambda value is indicated on the display if the
measured CO
content exceeds 2 % and both the oxygen
2
measurement and excess-air measurement functions are activated. The oxygen measurement is extremely important for calculating the excess-air factor. An imprecise oxygen measurement
leads to the incorrect calculation of the excess-air factor. The
lambda measurement function can be deactivated (Section 4.5,
Write parameters menu).

3.1.9 Corrected CO concentration (CO

3.2 Servicing the unit
The exhaust-gas analyzer module calculates the true CO concentration (CO
process also takes , for example, factors such as leaks in the
) from the concentrations of CO and CO2. This
vrai
exhaust system into consideration.
This function can be deactivated (Section 4.5, Write parameters
menu).
3.1.10 Parameterization
The exhaust-gas analyzer module can be parameterized for its
specific intended tasks in the Set parameters menu (Section 4.5).
Additional possibilities for parameterization are contained in the
Adjustment functions
menu (Section 9). However, these - like
the adjustment functions themselves - can only be accessed if a
test seal has been broken.
3.1.11 Filtration
Particles and aerosols are removed from the test gas by a
cascade of filters.
Particles constitute solid bodies such as dust and soot, while
aerosols are tiny droplets of fluid which condense in the gas duct
and analysis chambers. There they form a coating which may give
rise to error messages.
For this reason, it is imperative to ensure the correct manner of
filtration.
The service work listed below must be performed irrespective of
legal requirements in the country of operation.
3.2.1 Half-yearly service
i At this interval, only work for testing and maintaining opera-
tional readiness must be performed.
1. Replace GF1 filter (Item 1)
2. Replace inlet filter GF2 (Item 2)
3. Check that both PVC hoses are connected to the gas outlet
(Items 3, 4)
4. Visual inspection of exhaust-sample probe (Item 6)
In the case of major contamination, blow out with compressed air against the direction of suction
5. Perform leak test (Sec. 4.2)
6. Update service date (Sec. 4.7.8)
3.1.12 Principle of filtration
The first filter, GF1, filters the majority of particles and aerosols out
of the gas flow. This filter clogs most rapidly and must therefore
be replaced most frequently: about once a week.
The inlet filter, GF2, at second place in the cascade, filters out a
further part of particles and aerosols. The more clogged the filter
is, the smaller the mesh size and thus the better the filtering action.
The filter becomes wet very quickly from water in the exhaust gas.
This moisture washes the aerosols out of the flow of gas and filters
the particles better. A wet filter is therefore desirable!
This filter should be replaced from around once a month to once
a year.
Filters GF3 and GF4 have the task of protecting the internal
pumps. When the filtration system as a whole is being used
correctly, these filters must only be replaced once a year, at the
most.
Filter GF4, in particular, also has a better filtering action when wet
than dry.

exhaust-gas analyzer via the calibrating-gas inlet. Note down
the displayed values.
Next, use test gases no. 5 and no. 1 (gas mixture for sag test)
to check linearity, and note down the displayed values.
If the display deviates from the certified calibrating-gas value
during a measurement (sensitivity or linearity) by more than 5
%, replace the measuring bank (Section 10.10).

This menu is used to check the NO
measuring sensor.
Start the NO test by pressing E or by
double-clicking the mouse.
Zero calibration now takes place.
After zero calibration, the data of the NO
measuring sensor are displayed.
Limit values with air:
NO< 20ppm NO
Voltage3.290 V
Current10 µA
+ 0.040 V
+ 10µA
If the limit values are not complied with,
perform trouble-shooting as described in
Section 10.20.
4.12.4Mounting a new NO-Sensor
Return to the NO menu by clicking Back
or by pressing Alt + B.
i See Section 10.20 for sensor
installation
After the NO measuring sensor has been installed, it must be calibrated. The date of
calibration is written in the flashprom, enabling the age of the NO measuring sensor to be
determined subsequently at any time.
The same calibrating gas is used for calibrating the NO measuring sensor as for
recalibration.
Before commencing calibration, connect the BEA to the calibrating-gas bottle as shown
in the illustration below.

4.12.4Mounting a new NO-Sensor
! For initial calibration, it is imperative that the hoses (1) are of the same length and are
connected to the gas outlets of the exhaust-gas analyzer in the same manner as will
actually be the case during subsequent operation by the user.

i If the outlet hoses are shortened or lengthened, calibration must be performed again.
The signal from the NO measuring sensor is very sensitive to vibrations from the
pump. The strength of these vibrations depends upon the length of the outlet hoses.
Following successful calibration, the timer for monitoring the set recalibration interval
is started.
- Start evaluation by clicking on Yes or
selecting this button with the z key and
confirming with E.

Using the keyboard, enter the calibratinggas value in ppm NO.
i If the calibrating-gas value is stated
on the certificate in mg/m

you must
convert this value to ppm.
The formula required for conversion
is:
Test gas value x 0.737.
Example:
2179 mg/m

= 1606 ppm NO
Confirm your entry with E or by clickingOK.
4.12.4Mounting a new NO-SensorZero calibration is performed.
Allow calibrating gas to flow through the
BEA in line with the instructions on
screen.
Open the Test-gas bottle sufficiently to
allow some Test gas to continually flow
out through the rotameter, even with the
pump running (pressure-less calibration).
i The NO measuring sensor is very
sluggish. An "advance flow" through
the NO measuring sensor is therefore
necessary.
After this flow, confirm with E or by
clicking OK.
Assessment is performed. The remaining
flow time is displayed.
After calibrating gas has flown through
the BEA, the measured NO value, the
corresponding test current and the date
calibration are displayed.
To end calibration of the NO measuring
sensor, confirm No by pressing E or
clicking on No.

You will now return to the NO-Sensor
menu, and the timer for the adjustment
interval is started.

4.12.5 Readjustment with test gasi To calibrate the NO measuring sensor you will require a calibrating gas with the
following composition:
From 1000 to 5000 ppm NO in nitrogen (N).
The electrochemical measuring sensor must be recalibrated at regular intervals. Only in
this way can measuring accuracy be reliably maintained. The recalibration process also
allows faulty NO measuring sensors to be detected.
Before commencing recalibration, connect the calibrating-gas bottle as shown in the
illustration below. Connect the calibrating-gas connection to the test-gas inlet.
