Introduction to TITAN
The TITAN 875 Benzene Monitor is a fixed benzene monitor certified for Zone 1 hazardous areas. It detects 0­20ppm concentrations in ambient air, taking one sample per minute.
It monitors both the current benzene concentration and the STEL (Short-Term Exposure Limit, calculated over the previous 15 minutes).
Real-time display of the measurement is on the LCD and transmitted on a 4-20mA channel. Historic data stored in Titan can be viewed and stored externally either over the RS485 or the USB connection.
Alarms and warnings are transmitted by the 4-20mA channel and by two relays programmable to be Normally Open or Normally Closed.
It is powered by a single power supply in the range of range of 19VDC @ 4A to 32VDC @ 2.4A.
The Titan has two modules:
The Housing Module that is
installed permanently.
The Detection Module that can
be removed for servicing and calibration.
All the operational and calibration data is stored within the Detection Module. After the Detection Module has been calibrated, it will function correctly when installed in any Housing Module.
A Detection Module can be calibrated and tested off-site, then taken to the installation site and installed in place of an existing module. The removed module can then be serviced ready for installation later or in another Housing Module.

System Description The Gas Detector
The Titan samples the ambient air once every 60 seconds and passes the sample through a Photo-Ionisation Detector (PID).
The PID works by illuminating sample gases with high energy ultra-violet (UV) light. Benzene is one of the volatile organic compounds (VOCs) ionised by the UV photons. In a high voltage electric field, these ions create a current that can be amplified and measured to quantify the concentration of gases present. To make the measurements specific to benzene, it must be separated out from the other gasses before the PID measurement.
The sample passes through the AirSep filter which retards some gas components more than others. Under controlled conditions the filtration ensures the benzene will pass through the filter at a known and well defined time as a separated component. The benzene level is measured by analysis of the signal profile of the PID as the gasses from the AirSep filter pass through it.
For optimum performance it is important that the filter temperature and sample flow are tightly controlled. To achieve temperature stability, the AirSep filter is controlled to 50degC and the internal air temperature of the Titan is controlled to a maximum of 50degC by separate heating systems
There is no forced cooling mechanism so if the ambient temperature exceeds 50degC the measurement of benzene will be lower than the actual concentration.
Make sure to install the Titan where the ambient temperature does not rise above 50degC.
Pneumatic Connections
The Titan has three flame-arrestor connectors: one inlet and one outlet for the sampled air, and one breather. The breather keeps pressure equilibrium between inside and outside of the housing.
The inlet flame-arrestor can have a probe tube, up to 10m long, with hydroscopic filter, to detect benzene in areas remote from the Titan.
The outlet flame-arrestor can have an exhaust tube attached, to remove the processed air away from the inlet. Internally, there is also an inlet through the carbon filter and an outlet into the interior space.
Pneumatics
In running flow:
Pump P2 runs for 40 seconds out of every one minute cycle. The pump is stopped for twenty seconds to
allow accurate sampling by Valve V1. When the Valve V1 is in its normal "running" position, the air bypasses the Photo-Ionization Detector (PID).
Pump P1 keeps a constant flow of clean air from the internal (carbon) filter through the PID. Pump P1
outlet is inside the housing. Thus the clean air recycles through the internal (carbon) filter.
In sampling flow:
At 60 second intervals, Valve V1 moves to its "sampling" position for 0.5 seconds. Pump P1 then draws a sample of air from the Pump P2 flow. Through the AirSep filter and the PID. Analysis of the PID signal profile gives the benzene concentration.
Pump P1 flow is approximately 8mL per min. Pump P2 flow is approximately 200mL per min. The pressure sensors monitor the correct functioning of the pneumatic systems.

The external (hydrophobic) filter removes particles and moisture from the inlet Flow. Every three hours by the
clock (00:00, 03:00, 06:00…) the Titan will stop to measure the ambient pressure conditions to correctly adjust
for flow control. Important note: bump testing is inadvisable at these times as external pressure sources will affect the pressure calibration process

Heaters
The Titan has two heating systems, one regulates the internal temperature, the other regulates the temperature of the AirSep filter.
Internal temperature regulation is maintained by a set of four resistors in the base of the Housing Module.
AirSep filter temperature regulation is by two, 12V 2.5W, heater-mats within an insulated jacket in the Detection Module.

Outputs and Communications
Titan has five communication outputs:
The on-board LCD and LEDs on the faceplate. 4-20mA Current Loop. RS485 Modbus (simplex/half-duplex or fully-duplex), USB (Accessible on the Detector Module). Two programmable relays.
Titan monitors, in real-time, the current (Live) and the Short-Term Exposure Limit (STEL) benzene concentration. The STEL is calculated over the previous 15 minutes.
This real-time information is displayed on the LCD and transmitted on the 4-20mA and RS485 channels. You can program two alarms to operate at a chosen concentration of benzene and/or a chosen STEL limit. The
alarms will display a message on the LCD and LEDs; energize the relays: and transmit a signal on the 4-20mA channel.
The alarms and relays are individually programmable to the settings required by the site policy. You can choose either alarm to energize either relay. The default settings would be:
Alarm 1: 5.0ppm live Alarm 2: 0.5ppm STEL Relay 1: Alarm 1, N/O Relay 2: Alarm 2, N/O
Both relays can be programed to be Normally Open or Normally Closed. They can switch 24VDC at 1.5A maximum load. When the Titan is not powered the default state of relay 1 is N/C, the default state of relay 2 is N/O
Data is stored internally for a minimum of two years and can be downloaded with TitanPC software via USB or RS485 for analysis and archive storage.
You can configure the RS485 connection for half-duplex, 2-wire, or full-duplex, 4-wire, communication. Refer to Installation, Terminal Block-2.
The 4-20mA output fault indications are given by discrete current signals between 2.0 and 3.5mA. Refer to the table in Fault Diagnostics, Fault Conditions.

RS485 Modbus Interface
The Titan Modbus interface uses Serial ASCII format Modbus, at:
38400 baud 8 data bits, no parity, 2 stop bits.
Function Codes
Titan supports these function codes:
0x03 – Read Holding Registers 0x04 – Read Input Registers 0x10 – Write Multiple Registers
The address map for Read Holding Registers and Write Multiple Registers is the same – but not all addresses are writeable.
Bytes and Words
Modbus registers are generally 16 bits in length. For example if you send the command to Read Input Registers with a register quantity of 1 you will receive 2 bytes (1 word) of data. In the tables of addresses, we specify the length in bytes. This is the number of bytes of data associated with the read/write at that address.
Thus your Modbus request will be for half that number of registers.
Input Registers Address Map
Use the function code 0x04 to Read Input Registers in the address range given in the table. If you read more than the number of bytes indicated for the length at each address, any bytes beyond the length are undefined.
For example, if you read 32 bytes at address 1000, only the first 16 bytes returned are valid.

File Transfer
Titan has an internal file store to hold files containing configuration/setup data and data logs of results. You can read or write to these using read and write to holding registers at addresses F000, F080, F100.
File transfer is by three structures defined as follows (in C):
COMPILER_ALIGNED(4) static struct { unsigned short direction; unsigned short pack; union { unsigned int offset; char filename[40]; } d; } filename_data;
COMPILER_ALIGNED(4) static struct { int res; int state; int offset; int length; union { FIL hFile; DIR hDir; }; } fileinfo;
static struct { int attribute; int length; char name[40]; } directory_entry;
To read a directory
1. Write to F000 a filename_data block with values: direction = 5 filename = ASCII zero terminated path to read, ‘/’ indicates root folder.
2. Read from F080 a fileinfo block. Check that res = 0, State = 2 to indicate directory read open OK.
875 Benzene Monitor Manual Ion Science Ltd.
Page 22 of 65
3. Read from F100 a 128 byte block. This will contain a directory_entry. The length field is the length of the file name in ‘name’. The attribute is a bitmap combination of:
#define
AM_RDO
0x01
/* Read only */
#define
AM_HID
0x02
/* Hidden */
#define
AM_SYS
0x04
/* System */

AM_DIR
0x10
/* Directory */
#define
AM_ARC
0x20
/* Archive */
#define
AM_MASK
0x3F
/* Mask of defined bits */
4. Read from F080 a fileinfo block. This contains status information about the last directory entry read. Check res=0 to indicate success.
5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 until whole directory is read. A return in the fileinfo block with res <> 0 indicates end of directory.
6. Write to F000 a filename_data block with values: direction = 6 to close the directory read.
To read a file
1. Write to F000 a filename_data block with values: direction = 0 filename = ASCII zero terminated path to read, ‘/’ indicates root folder.
2. Read from F080 a fileinfo block. Check that res = 0, State = 1 to indicate file read open OK. File length will be in the length parameter.
3. Read 128 bytes of data from F100.
4. Read a fiileinfo block from F080. Check res=0 and the offset has incremented by 128.
5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 to read whole file.
6. Write to F000 a filename_data block with values: direction = 2 to close the file
While reading a file you can rewind by:
1. Write to F000 a filename_data block with values: direction = 3; offset = offset required
2. Read a fileinfo block from F080. Check res = 0 and offset is as required.
To write a file
1. Write to F000 a filename_data block with values: direction = 1 filename = ASCII zero terminated path to read, ‘/’ indicates root folder.
2. Read from F080 a fileinfo block. Check that res = 0, State = 1 to indicate file write open OK.
3. Write up to 128 bytes of data to F100.
4. Read a fileinfo block from F080. Check res=0 and the offset has incremented by 128.
5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 to write whole file.
6. Write to F000 a filename_data block with values: direction = 2 to close the file.
To delete a file
1. Write to F000 a filename_data block with values: direction = 4 filename = ASCII zero terminated path to delete.
2. Read from F080 a fileinfo block. Check that res = 0, to indicate file deleted OK.
Only single files may be deleted, the filename should be the full path to the file, e.g. /20150510/123456.txt

Data Files
Data files are written by Titan every minute. Data files are appended to a folder whose name is made from the current date, e.g. 20150301 will be the folder
for 1st March 2015. Within the Date folder there is a folder named RESULTS containing a series of TXT files. The filename is made
up of 8 hex characters which is the time of the file in seconds since 1/1/2010.
The files in the RESULTS folder contain ASCII information of the result, e.g.
Date,17/02/2015 Time,15:54 Benzene,0.0 STEL,2.1 Col Temp, 50.01 Amb Temp, 31.3 Flow,7.47 PS1,988 PS2,3828 PS3,6865 Slope,4000 Flags,1 Fence,22217 DriveDac,105 DriveVolt,63.0 Faults,0
To read logged data from the Titan use the Directory read commands to see what directories of type yyyymmdd exist. Then read the RESULTS sub-folder to see the data files available.
System Files
Titan stores configuration parameters in *.CFG files in the file store. Titan can malfunction if you delete or modify these files.

Installation Requirements
Please make sure you understand all the installation requirements before you install Titan.
Location Requirements
There are many variables involved in defining the optimum location for a gas detector. Mount the Titan:
in a location where it (or its inlet probe) is most likely to detect the gas in an area that has good air circulation. Restricting natural air current can result in delayed detection on a solid, stable support, where it is accessible for servicing vertically, with the flame arresters underneath the housing not in direct sunlight or over a heat source (This can cause the Titan to exceed its certified internal working
temperature of 50degC)
not in areas likely to flood. An exhaust line can be attached to the outlet flame-arrestor to remove the processed air away from the Titan. An inlet line (inlet probe), with hydrophobic filter can be attached to the inlet flame-arrestor to detect benzene in
areas remote from the Titan. These lines can be
Maximum of 10 meters long.
Recommended cross-section: 6mm OD x 4mm ID PTFE tube.
Power Requirements
Nominal Voltage
24VDC @ 3.2A
Minimum Voltage
19VDC @ 4A
Maximum Voltage
32VDC @ 2.4A
We recommend a power supply unit of 24VDC at 4.5A. Power consumption depends on the heaters in the temperature control systems. Running in ambient
temperatures below 5degC will use maximum power. Higher temperatures will reduce power consumption. The 4-20mA output requires its own power supply at 24 (minimum) to 32VDC (maximum). It can share the
instrument's 24 to 32VDC, 4.5A, power supply if:
the 4-20mA output goes to the same location as the instrument power supply and
their Grounds will be connected together.
Refer to Electrical Connections, Terminal Block-1.
Cable and Gland Requirements
We recommend you use screened cables e.g., multicore cable with SWA armour, or Braid Armour to protect against EMI.
The manufacture and build of the cable glands is the responsibility of the installer. The cable glands must conform to the certification standards required for the installation site. Install blanking plugs with the appropriate certification standards to unused cable gland ports.
For general advice on selection of cable glands please visit http:// cmp-products.com/cable-gland-selection-
guidelines.

Page 25 of 65
To connect a 120R termination resistor across 'A' and 'B': connect a jumper on L1 between the middle pin and 120R pin. (Refer to Note 1 of Terminal Block-2, Installation).
For Half-Duplex communication, connect jumpers on L2 and L3 between the middle pin and HD pin (Refer to Note 2 of Terminal Block-2, Installation).
This enables 2-wire communications and a 3rd wire ('0') as a Ground.
'A' is connected to 'Y'
'B' is connected to 'Z'
'0' is Ground
For Full-Duplex communication, connect jumpers on L2 and L3 between the middle pin and D pin (Refer to Note 3 of Terminal Block-2, Installation).
This enables 4-wire communications and a 5th wire ('0') as a Ground.
Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) Requirements
Titan can be sensitive to electromagnetic interference in the 1.8 to 2.0GHz range. If it will be exposed to strong signals in that range please contact Ion Science for a faceplate with increased protection against electromagnetic interference (EMI).

After-Installation Test
Do a test of the relay and the 4-20mA systems to check for correct installation and function. Refer to Relays and
4-20mA Test.
Do a "Bump Test" to verify that the sensors respond correctly to the Benzene gas. Refer to Bump test. for an accurate bump test the Titan needs to heat up and thermally stabilise. This can take up to 90 minutes. Before this an inaccuracy of up to 15% could be seen.
A bump test does not calibrate the sensors. If Titan does not display the gas concentration given by the bottle, do a calibration to give the correct readings. Refer to Benzene Calibration (on-board) or Benzene Calibration (using TitanPC).

Operating the Titan Switches and Display
The Titan front face has:
An LCD display, two switches, magnetically
operated,
three LEDs.
All three LEDs work together and display the same colour.
LEDs Green
Titan is operating correctly.
LEDs Yellow
Titan has an operational fault. An alert signal and the name of the fault is on the screen.
LEDs Red
The measured level of benzene is above the alarm threshold.
Power on
When power is turned on, the Titan displays the 'Ion Science' logo followed by the firmware version.
The Titan then starts to heat the AirSep filter. Normal operation cannot start until it reaches the target temperature. This will usually take a few minutes.
Normal operation starts when it is stable at the target temperature. The Titan then displays the ambient benzene level in parts per million (ppm). This updates once per minute.
Main screens and main menu

Benzene Calibration
For accuracy over the full range; Ion recommends a bottle of 5ppm benzene. The software allows you to use any benzene concentration from 0.1 to 20.0ppm, if your application has different requirements.
Attach the bottle before you start calibration. This ensures the benzene is flowing through the Titan system before the start of the calibration.
Connect the bottle to the hydrophobic filter on the inlet flame-arrestor of the Titan. Use a demand-flow regulator that delivers more than 500mL/min. A fixed-flow regulator will not perform correctly and can damage the Titan.
Move the cursor to the ppm value. Use Switch 2 to cycle through the values to the benzene concentration of the bottle.
Select to start the calibration process. Titan analyses the gas for a default time of 10 minutes. You can select the return arrow icon to stop the calibration process at any time. Once the timer has finished the new calibration will replace the previous calibration in the Detector Module. Do a Bump Test to check the calibration. Refer to Bump Test.
Flow Calibration
Ion recommends a bottle of between 5 and 10ppm benzene.
Select the flow arrow to go to the Flow calibration screen.
Attach the bottle before you start calibration. This ensures the benzene is flowing through the Titan system before the start of the calibration.
Connect the bottle to the hydrophobic filter on the inlet flame-arrestor. Use a demand-flow regulator that delivers more than 500mL/min. A fixed-flow regulator will not perform correctly and can damage the Titan.
Select to start the calibration process.
The calibration process lasts between 5 and 10 minutes.
You can select the return arrow icon to stop the calibration process at any time.

Flow Calibration
Click on the icon for the Flow Calibration window.
Attach a bottle of between 5 and 10ppm Benzene to the inlet flame-arrestor before you start calibration. This ensures the benzene is flowing through the Titan system before the start of the calibration.
Click the "Start Calibration" button. The text on the button will change to “Abort Calibration.” You can click the
button again to any time to stop the calibration and reset the screen to its original state. "Last Cycle" shows the pump power and AirSep Performance value for the previous cycle. If the AirSep Performance value is larger than the specified configuration value then the calibration will fail. "Live Status" shows the applied pump power and measured differential pressure of the current cycle. If the
pump cannot run between the limits of ‘Minimum Pump Power’ and ‘Maximum Pump Power’ then the calibration will fail.
"Sensor Calibration" If you tick "Enable Sensor Calibration" and type-in the Benzene concentration of the bottle, TitanPC will calibrate the sensor after the Flow Calibration.
The "Save Calibration" button is not active until the calibration is complete and successful. The new calibrated flow will not replace the old setting in the Detector Module until you click the button. The text "Calibration Saved" will then appear next to the button.
The Status, Pump power and Differential pressure stay on the screen until you start a new calibration. Do a Bump Test to check the calibration. Refer to Bump Test. During the procedure the "Status" message shows:
“Instrument ready”
When there is a Detector Module connected to TitanPC.
“Stabilising flow”
When the pump power has been adjusted and the software is waiting for stable flow conditions.
“Running measurement cycle”
When the software is doing a measurement cycle.
“Calibration successful”
When the calibration is complete and successful.
“Calibration failed: AirSep fault”
When the calibration diagnoses a failure of the AirSep.
“Calibration failed: pump power high”
When calibration diagnoses that the pump power required for a working flow is too high.
“Calibration failed: pump power low”
When calibration diagnoses that the pump power required for a working flow is too low

Benzene Calibration
Click on the icon for the Benzene Calibration window.
Ensure the Detector Module clock is set to the correct date and time. Ensure the flow is successfully calibrated before you do Benzene Calibration. For accuracy over the full range; Ion recommends a bottle of 5ppm benzene. The software allows you to use
any benzene concentration from 0.1 to 20.0ppm, if your application has different requirements. Titan analyses the gas for a default of 5 cycles (10 minutes). If the tube or inlet probe between bottle and Titan is long, you can increase the cycles to ensure a stable gas flow. (Contact Ion Science or your Service Center)
Attach the bottle before you start calibration. This ensures the benzene is flowing through the Titan system before the start of the calibration.
Connect the bottle to the hydrophobic filter on the inlet flame-arrestor of the Titan. Use a demand-flow regulator that delivers more than 500mL/min. A fixed-flow regulator will not perform correctly and can damage the Titan
Type-in the benzene concentration of the bottle and the cycles required. Click on the "Start Calibration" button. The screen shows the "Time Left" and the progress bar at the bottom. At the end of the calibration the option to "Save" will show on the screen. The new calibration will not replace the
previous calibration in the Detector Module if you do not click the Save button. Do a Bump Test to check the calibration. Refer to Bump Test.

Bump Test
A "Bump Test" is not a calibration. The test verifies that the Titan is accurately measuring benzene at a known concentration supplied from a bottle.
Use of the Test
Ion Science Ltd. recommend you do a Bump Test:
After initial installation. After replacement of a Detector Module. Once per week. Or at a regular period specified by the installation site policy. If the Titan is exposed to a high gas concentration. If the Titan receives a large physical shock. If the Titan is exposed to silicone poisons.
Test Procedure
Ion Science Ltd recommended you use a bottle of 5ppm benzene equipped with a demand-flow regulator delivering more than 500mL/min. A fixed-flow regulator will not perform correctly and can damage the Titan.
You can use any concentration from 0.1 to 20.0ppm benzene, if your application has different requirements. Connect the bottle to the hydrophobic filter on the inlet flame-arrestor. Allow 3 minutes for the reading on the
Titan display to stabilize. If the Titan does not display the gas concentration given by the bottle, calibrate the Titan to give the correct
readings. Refer to:
On-board Benzene Calibration On-board Flow Calibration TitanPC Benzene Calibration TitanPC Flow Calibration
Manually energize the relays and 4-20mA system to verify correct connection of the systems. Refer to Relays
and 4-20mA Test.
