1-1 OVERVIEW
This manual describes the Heated Flame
Ionization Detector (HFID) Analyzer Module of
Rosemount Analytical's NGA2000 Series of
gas analysis components. See Figure 1-1
below and Figure 1-2 on page 3.
The HFID Analyzer Module is designed to
continuously determine the concentration of
hydrocarbons in a flowing gaseous mixture at
a user-selectable temperature setpoint between 93°C and 204°C (200°F and 400°F).
The concentration is expressed in ppm or
percent of volume.
The entire HFID Analyzer Module is designed
as a stand-alone module, with gas connections made from the rear. All electronics relative to sample detection and conditioning are
included in this module.
1-2 TYPICAL APPLICATIONS
The monitoring of atmospheric air for low-level
hydrocarbon contaminants and determining
the hydrocarbon content of exhaust emissions
+90V
Sample
ples of typical applications for the HFID Analyzer Module.
1-3 THEORY OF TECHNOLOGY
This Analyzer Module uses the flame ionization method of detection. The sensor is a
burner in which a regulated flow of sample
gas passes through a flame sustained by
regulated flows of a fuel gas (a hydrogen/diluent mixture) and air.
Within the flame, the hydrocarbon components of the sample stream undergo a complex ionization that produces electrons and
positive ions. Polarized electrodes collect
these ions, causing current to flow through an
electronic measuring circuit.
The ionization current is proportional to the
rate at which carbon atoms enter the burner,
and is therefore a measure of the concentration of hydrocarbons in the sample. This
measure of concentration is placed on the
network, where it can be shown on a data acquisition device.

through the combination of an inlet fuel flow
restrictor and purge gas flow.
This module is designed to use 40% H
He fuel at a maximum inlet pressure of 3446
hPa-gauge (50 psig).

constant ambient temperature.
2-4 GASES
a. Overview
During normal operation, the Analyzer
Module requires fuel and air to maintain
the burner flame as well as suitable
standard gases for calibration and instrument air for purge requirements. In
addition, instrument air for regulated air
in is required to control the sample
pressure at the sample capillary. Criteria for selection of these gases follow in
this section.
After initial startup or after startup following a prolonged shutdown, the analyzer may display baseline drift for a
considerable period of time, particularly
on the most sensitive range. Commonly, the drift is caused by small
amounts of hydrocarbons in the inner
walls of the tubing in both the internal
flow system and the external gas supply
system. Drift results from any factor influencing the equilibrium of these absorbed hydrocarbons, such as
temperature or pressure.
Note that this type of drift occurs only
when the flame is burning. If drift occurs
when the flame is extinguished, the
electronic circuitry is at fault. To minimize drift, use clean fuel and air, keep
the analyzer clean, and locate the gas
cylinders in an area of relatively constant ambient temperature.
The cylinders supplying all gases each
should be equipped with a clean, hydrocarbon-free, two-stage regulator and
a shutoff valve.

POSSIBLE INSTRUMENT DAMAGE
c. Fuel Gas Specification
Standard analysis usually requires
mixed fuel, i.e., 40% ±2%) hydrogen
and 60% helium. H
recommended over H2/N2 fuel because
of better linearity in concentration output. Such blends are supplied by many
gas vendors specifically for this use,
with a guaranteed maximum total hydrocarbon content of 0.5 ppm, measured as methane. This specification
should be used when obtaining these
mixtures.
The fuel restrictor is marked with a
red dot, and the sample capillary is
marked with a red or green dot for
mixed fuel applications.
d. Burner Air Specification
In order to ensure a low background
signal, burner air should contain less
than 1 ppm maximum total hydrocarbon
content. An alternate source for burner
air and zero gas (see Section 2-4g
below) is a combination diaphragm
pump and heated palladium catalyst.
This process continuously removes
moderate amounts of hydrocarbons and
carbon monoxide from ambient air.
