2.5Protection Against Emissions from Gas Carrying Channels
Protect against gas leakage from the gas-bearing channel
The Lambda Probe LS2-K is fitted directly to the gas-bearing channel via a counterflange. If
the Lambda Probe LS2-K is dismantled, depending on the plant but particularly in the case of
excess pressure, aggressive and / or hot gas can seep out of the channel and this could pose
a serious health hazard to an unprotected operator if suitable safety measures have not be
taken previously. For prevention, suitable protective measures must be taken in advance.
WARNING!
Discharge of hot, corrosive gases!
In the event of high pressure and temperatures higher than 200 °C in the gas duct, gas escapes when the LS2-K Lambda Probe is removed.
Switch OFF the application before opening.
Wear protective clothing and a protective mask.
Affix appropriate warnings near by.
Close aperture immediately after finishing work.
WARNING!
Danger from electrical shock
The device contains live parts and touching these parts could cause electric shock.
Before opening the housing, disconnect the mains plug!

4.7Measurement Start-up
NOTICE
When installing the probe and during subsequent operation, it is necessary to make sure that
the probe does not get into contact with oil, grease or with agents used to clean the tank.
This belongs to the cell and the connection area!
Poisoning or contamination of the probes is indicated by a potential difference across the air
gap of < -20 mV or > -30 mV. Furthermore, once installed the probe must always be in operation. This will prevent moisture from collecting on the measurement cell which can lead to
measurement errors and to the destruction of the probe!
CAUTION!
The temperature of the aluminium connection housing, should not be higher than +60 °C/
140 °F, because of internal built-in pressure sensors. If necessary use a longer probe with an
intermediate flange.
Do not insulate the counter flange and the housing.

6.1Measurement During Distinct Pressure Surges at the Measuring Site
If the display jumps badly, damping can be increased via the (optional) display and operating
unit and the service and diagnostic software (i.e. by increasing the integration's time-constant); this steadies the display: parameter 360 - Operational release level. However, this
slows down the display in terms of reaching an end state.
NOTICE
Large damping simultaneously leads to an artificial slowing down of the measurement signal.
6.2Operational Failure, Switching On and Off
In the event of long interruptions during operation, which are lasting for longer than approx. 3
months, it is recommended to switch off the measuring system. The probe should be dismantled to avoid damage (see chapters 8.6.11 Service Warning 1/Service Warning 2, 4.10 Decom-missioning4 Commissioning/Decommissioning).
NOTICE
Recommendation: Continue with the measurement in case of short service interruptions.
6.3Liquid Purification
To perform a liquid purification of the boiler is possible, if the probe is dismantled before. Performing a liquid purification to an installed probe, can damage the probe. An error free operation is no longer possible.

7.4.3Cleaning/Replacing the Sintered Metal Pre-filter
Cleaning the filter is only necessary if its permeability has been impaired due to deposits. In
this case the following warnings appear:
–’Delta-P offset calibration too high, filter clogged’
–’Delta-P offset calibration too low, too little gas’
Impaired permeability is indicated by a slower probe response to measurement value changes, and by a higher pressure increase (absolute pressure) during a calibration. If the error
messages are indicated after cleaning the filter the filter must be replaced. Therefore the repairing kit for O2 measurement cell type 650R2060 ... 2062 is necessary.
Remove the sintered metal pre-filter as follows:

Limit values are displayed only if they are activated in parameters 930/940/950/960 (access
level ’Service’).
NOTICE
Reset all warnings or faults by quitting them. If necessary eliminate the cause of the warning/
fault.
In 99 % of all cases, the LS2-K Lambda Probe was disconnected during operation. Reset fault
either by the multifunction key or by the display and operating unit etc.
1. Reset fault either by the multifunction key or by the display and operating unit etc.
2. A defect only exists if the fault cannot be reset.
Possible causes:
•Check fuse F 5 (see chapter 10.7 LT2 Power Electronic Type 657E1882
•Check the probe heater. In an intact heater, ca.10 (9 ... 11 ) can be measured
between terminal 35 and 36. If not (R ) heater faulty. Replace probe.
•If intact, check the supply voltage: The probe heater must be supplied with about 13 VDC,
cyclically reversed. If not, check the wiring and the terminals and tighten if necessary.
NOTICE
The probe is heated with direct current at approx. 13 V, cyclically reversed. Therefore the use
of a multimeter to measure it is somewhat difficult.
NOTICE
The current heating data can be read out from LT2 operating parameters 41/42/43.
8.5.3Broken Wire Probe/Defective Probe
This message is indicated if the AC internal resistance (Ri) or the ZrO2 cell exceeds the permissible limit of 300 . Before or after this message you normally will get the warning ’Inner
resistance [probe] too high’.
Possible reasons:
•The probe is disconnected (measuring signal on terminals 33 to 34)
•Loose connection check the terminals, re-tighten
•Probe too cold, possibly enhance the heating power gradually (0.5 W)
•Check wiring, if OK replace probe

8.5.4No Probe Dynamics
No probe dynamic detected. Check the probe.
NOTICE
Testing is shut off on delivery.
Activate testing in parameter group 1330 to 1334.
The testing checks, if the measuring value changes more than the parameter set threshold
value during a specified time.
Only valid in combination with an integrated O2 control.
8.5.5Fault Analogue Output
Check the settings in the parameters of the analogue outputs 1 to 4.
•Parameter 530 … 569 analogue outputs
Check the analogue outputs on the computer electronic and replace if necessary.
Check if an analogue output is activated but is not plugged in (check assembly).

8.5.6O2 Value Is Incorrect
If a control measurement results in a different O2 value than the one displayed:
•Has the relationship between wet/dry measurement been taken into account?
see chapter 10.8 Wet/Dry Measurement Deviations, Conversion Table
•Check LT2 and probe, see chapter 7.2 Checking the Measurement Input of LT2-K
•Commission the new probe as described in chapter 4 Commissioning/Decommissioning
•Measuring value too high? Secondary air, check sealing and hose connections if they are
tight.
NOTICE
During counter measurement, check whether the instrument being used measures wet or dry.
Those with an advance gas cooler are always used for dry measurement. This also applies to
instruments that extract moisture via a chemical compound. The LS2-K Lambda Probe measures wet. The difference between wet and dry measurements can be obtained from the diagram in the Appendix, see chapter 10.8 Wet/Dry Measurement Deviations, Conversion Table
8.5.7Reference Air Is Missing
Predefine this indication as a fault in parameter P395. If necessary this indication can be defined as a warning in P395 (trigger delay = 1 h).
The amount of reference air which is needed to flow around the reference electrode cannot
be reached. This leads falsifies the measurement value.
Possible causes:
•The reference air connection of the probe is not fed with instrument air (compressed air,
reference air pump).
•The throttle of the reference air is opened insufficiently.
•The difference pressure sensor’s signal has drifted.
Action:
•Check electric and pneumatic connections.
•Readjust the amount of reference air, see chapter 4.7.1.1 Adjust the Amount of the Refer-
ence Air
•Check difference pressure sensor and replace if necessary
•Check pressure input plug-in cards and replace if necessary

8.6Warnings - Causes and Solutions
In general: Warnings do not affect the measurement functions.
8.6.1LT2-K Calibration Menu
This message is output if the AC internal resistance (RI) of the ZrO2 cell exceeds the permissible limit of 200 during operation.
Possible cause:
Probe aged (worn out) Obtain a spare probe and replace.
Measurement can continue, using caution. Check accuracy by counter-measurement,
see chapter 6 Operation
–Check fuses F2, see chapter10.6 Fuses
–Fault in supply section electronics replace
Check the Lambda Transmitter’s electronic:
Measure the AC voltage across LT2 terminals 33 and 34, using a multimeter.
The result in mV corresponds approx. to half the AC internal resistance.
8.6.2Offset Voltage out of range
During offset calibration an invalid voltage is detected.
Check if the measuring cell has been supplied with air.
•Check if the flow of compressed air/instrument air is sufficient.
If the rise of pressure is higher than 1 ... 2 mbar, see chapter 7.1.1 Calibrating the Air Volt-
age (Offset)
•Check if pre-filter is torn?
If OK check probe voltage in air.
Permissible range: +5 … -30 mV.
Reversed polarity of the probe terminals 33/34
8.6.3Reference Air Is Missing (Indication as a Warning in Parameter 395)
Select in parameter 395 sets if the indication should be a fault or a warning (default = failure).

8 Fault Analysis/Trouble-shooting
8.6.4Delta-P Offset/Test Gas Calibration is Insufficient - Too less Gas
Insufficient rising of the pressure during offset calibration or test gas calibration at LS2-KV.
Possible causes:
•Instrument air or test gas (1 bar) is missing at the probe.
•The solenoid valve have not been switched.
•The calibration throttle has not opened sufficiently.
Action:
•Check pneumatic connections and throttle settings, see chapter 4.7.1 Measurement with LS2-K.
•Pre-filter is torn an must be replaced, see chapter 7.4.3 Cleaning/Replacing the Sintered Metal Pre-filter.
8.6.5Delta-P Offset or Test Gas Calibration too High - Filter Clogged
The rise of the pressure is too high at LS2-KV during offset calibration or test gas calibration.
Possible causes:
•The pre-pressure of the instrument air or the test gas has been increased (p.ex. from
0.3 bar to 6 bar).
•The throttle is opened too much.
•The pre-filter is clogged
Action:
•Check pre-pressure and throttle adjustment, see chapter 4.7.1 Measurement with LS2-K
•Clean or replace pre-filter, see chapter 7.4.3 Cleaning/Replacing the Sintered Metal Pre-filter.
8.6.6Amount of Calibration Gas Insufficient
Insufficient rise of the pressure during offset calibration or test gas calibration of Lambda
Probe
Possible causes:
•The stopcock of probe connection box (PCB) was not opened, see chapter 4.7.1.3 Per-forming an Offset Calibration with Compressed Air.
•The test gas throttle in the PCB is not open sufficiently.
•The signal from the differential pressure sensor has drifted (recalibrate to ’0’).
•Probe pre-filter cracked or broken (replace)
•see chapter 8.5.4 No Probe Dynamics

8 Fault Analysis/Trouble-shooting
8.6.7Test Gas Calibration Is Invalid
The probe temperature which is calculated from the probe voltage and the concentration of
gas is outside a range of 800° - 1200° Kelvin.
Possible causes:
•The connected test gas has not the same O2 concentration as set in parameter 301.
•Sensor aged/contaminated and must be replaced.
•Infiltrated air: Check seals and hose connection if they are tight.
8.6.8Test Gas Calibration Is Invalid
The O2 value differs more than 0,5 % O2 compared with previous calibration.
Possible causes:
•see chapter 8.6.7 Test Gas Calibration Is Invalid
8.6.9Analogue Inputs 1/2/3/4 Input Value too Large/too Small
The input value at the relevant analogue input is outside the permissible range.
•Check parameters 574/584/594/604 (minimum) and parameters 578/585/595/605 (maximum). Parameters 570/580/590/600 indicate the current value.
•Check wiring poles reversed?
•Check source (connected instrument).
•Analogue input card defective? Replace it.
8.6.10Configuration Error at Analogue Outputs
Parameters have been set for analogue outputs not physically found. Check parameters 539,
549, 559, 569 and 530, 540, 550, 560 and compare with the fitted cards.
If necessary, replace the analogue output cards and/or processor card.
8.6.11Service Warning 1/Service Warning 2
The service warnings are designed to draw attention to regular servicing. The service warnings can be freely defined by the operator, e.g.
Service warning 1 check probe
Service warning 2 replace probe
The appropriate cycle times can be freely configured by the parameters 1260 and 1261.

The LT2 carries out measurements directly in the humid flue gases (wet measurement). When
extractive devices are used, flue gases are removed and prepared. "Dry Measurements" are
normally used here, since the humidity has been extracted from the flue gas. As a result, O
measurement values vary (see diagrams below).
