ii Rosemount CT4215
1 Leak detection overview
Gas concentrations are measured using mid-infrared optica absorption spectroscopy. The light sources are Quantum Cascade Lasers (QCLs), which are operated to produce wavelength sweeps that cover the absorption lines of the target gases.
The laser is mounted in the baseplate between the upper and lower enclosures of the leak detector, and light is directed through the measurement cell and onto a detector. When molecules from a leaking container enter the measurement cell, they partially absorb the laser light. The variation in the intensity of the light indicates a leaking container, and the container is rejected from the line.
The leak detector identifies packaged products that have a break in seal integrity as they are carried along a conveyor belt at speed. The leak detection system consists of a sampling head which draws air from around the product. The air is passed through the measurement cell for high speed analysis.

3. Close the compressed air supply if required.
20 Rosemount CT4215
6 Operation
The packaged Leak Detection System is designed to run autonomously with minimal user interaction required. After the startup procedure in Chapter 4, the system needs only a green light to run.
There are up to three components mounted onto the packaged production line. The layout of the line is shown schematically in Figure 6-1.
Schematic Layout of the System On LineFigure 6-1:

Operation

The packs flow on the schematic above from left to right. The packs pass through the input gate which is located before the sample head. A space of at least 1 in. (2.5 cm) is required between packs in order to ensure correct counting and rejection. A space of at least 6 in. (15.2 cm) is advised for best operation.
The sample head then analyzes the pack/container.
The reject mechanism safely removes faulty containers from the production line without the need to stop the line. The distances between the components is set at the time of install and is determined by the speed of the production line.

Leak (abs): The maximum concentration value for each unit. If this value is greater than the upper
threshold, this package will be rejected.
Leak (cal): For certain applications, a calibration factor may be applied in order to have units for
leakage (i.e., bubbles/second or mg/day).
UT: The upper threshold value. If the concentration exceeds this value, the package is rejected.
LT: The lower threshold: If two consecutive concentration points exceed this value, the package is
rejected.
Noiselevel: the noise value at the time when the package is logged.
Reject: Packages which do not breach thresholds are reject = 0, and those which breach
thresholds are reject =1.
Note
If you want to view only rejected packages, then filter column H to show only rows with 1 in them.
NOTICE
The CanInfo type is logged for all units processed; the Reject type only shows the reject value.

6.3 Status lamps / errors

There are a number of errors that the Leak Detection System monitors, which may occur during the normal operation of the system. The errors are displayed as an illuminated lamp on the front of the enclosure. All errors latch and are cleared by the RESET button on the front of the enclosure. The errors are detailed below and, when activated, will trigger the red beacon bulb and line stop (if applicable).
Cabinet Status IndicatorsFigure 6-7:
Operation
A. Alarm beacon: Green for healthy; red for unhealthy/line stop. B. RESET button to clear latched alarms. C. AIR status bulb. Illuminates when blower or compressed air is off. D. Blower status: A status bulb turns on when power is supplied to the blower. If the power is
interrupted, the bulb doesn't turn on, and the AIR warning bulb turns on.

Operation
LDM Software ErrorsFigure 6-8:
1. System Ready: Shows when the system is ready for use. This is red during system
start up.
2. System Healthy: The system can become unhealthy if the gate in/out count is
different or if there have been n consecutive rejects (the default value is five consecutive rejects). Press Reset counters on the HMI to clear the error.
3. Laser Healthy: The laser becomes unhealthy if it is below the threshold value (see the
red line in Figure 6-2). Check the beam path for obstruction or clean the cell mirrors as described in Section 7.2. This error automatically clears when the pulse amplitude is above the threshold.
4. Maintenance: The yellow warning triangle appears if the laser pulse amplitude is
below the warning threshold value. System performance is not affected, but you should consider activating the mirror purge or cleaning the cell mirrors soon. This error automatically clears when the pulse amplitude is above the warning threshold.
5. Too many Consecutive Rejects: If several packs are rejected in a row, this error is
triggered. Figure 6-9 shows the error message generated. To reset this error, press the Reset Alarms button on the touch screen.

7 Maintenance
The packaged Leak Detection System is inherently reliable at reducing the requirement for routine maintenance. This section provides information on the schedule of maintenance you should perform to ensure the reliable performance of the system.
WARNING!
ELECTRIC SHOCK For all maintenance inside the lower section of the console, the system must be powered off using the shutdown procedure detailed in Chapter 5. Inside the console there are potentially dangerous voltages.

7.1 Scheduled maintenance

The maintenance activities and their related frequencies are shown below.

Maintenance

7.2 Clean cell mirrors

Follow the steps below to clean the cell mirrors in the Rosemount™ CT4215.
CAUTION!
EQUIPMENT DAMAGE
The cell mirrors are an optical device; only clean them when required. Avoid over cleaning the mirrors. Use only the cleaning parts listed in this document.
If the laser pulse amplitude drops below the laser warning threshold (default 0.4 V), then the yellow Maintenance warning message appears on the HMI (Figure 7-1).
Figure 7-1:
The system performance is not affected and runs as normal, but consider purging the cell or prepare to clean the cell mirrors soon.
Error Message for Pulse Amplitude below Warning Threshold
Reference Manual 33
Maintenance
If the laser pulse amplitude drops below the laser threshold (default 0.2 V), the Laser Healthy alarm turns red, and the LASER bulb on the front of the control system is red. At this point, the line stops, because of the red light; clean the mirrors.
Error Message for Pulse Amplitude below ThresholdFigure 7-2:
Procedure
1. Switch off the BLOWER ISOLATOR and compressed air supply.
2. Open the upper enclosure to see the red measurement cell jacket.
3. Release the two clamps on top of the cell lid.
4. Remove the top cover of the cell jacket.
5. Remove the black cell cover.
6. Use only Thor Labs lens cleaning tissue (P-5000-0613) to gently wipe the mirrors on
each side of the cell (see Figure 7-3).
CAUTION!
EQUIPMENT DAMAGE
Avoid skin contact with the mirrors as oils can be deposited.
Cleaning the Cell MirrorsFigure 7-3:
34 Rosemount CT4215
7. Once the mirrors have been cleaned, check the pulse amplitude on the HMI and
ensure it is > 0.4 V, resetting any alarms.
8. Replace the black cell lid, red cell cover, and clamps.
9. Switch on the BLOWER ISOLATOR and press the Purge button for a few short bursts.
10. Clsoe the upper enclosure and reset any alarms.

7.3 Air filter

The air filter is located externally at the rear of the upper enclosure and prevents dust and debris from reaching the cell. Emerson™ recommends inspecting the filter at monthly intervals. The steps below show how to access the air filter for inspection or changing.
1. Isolate the blower so that there is no air flow through the filter and cell.
2. Using circlip pliers, remove the circlip from the end of the filter housing, Figure 7-4.
Maintenance

7.4 Control system

The leak detector system is inherently tolerant to high levels of contamination/dust without a reduction in performance.
Depending on the factory cleaning regulations, wipe down the control cabinet with suitable cleaning products as required. Emerson™ recommends doing this monthly.

7.5 Sample head

The sample head comes into contact with packages, so it should be cleaned and inspected in line with the factory standards. Only clean the sample head when the system is switched off, compressed air is off, and the conveyor is off.
