This manual will show how to measure oxygen easily using the XTP601 Oxygen Analyzer.
The following sections contain information about:
• Analyzer components
• Operating instructions
• Calibration and maintenance of the Analyzer
• Installation
Please read this manual carefully and pay special attention to the safety warnings and
notifications.

The XTP601 Oxygen Analyzer is based on Michell Instruments’ advanced proprietary
Thermo-Paramagnetic technology. It measures the percentage of oxygen in a wide
range of gases, including nitrogen, hydrogen, carbon dioxide methane and biogas.
The sensor is housed in a weather-proof (GP version) or explosion-proof (EX version)
casing - both IP66 & NEMA 4X rated. It is suitable for a range of applications in safe or
hazardous areas.

INTRODUCTION
1.1 Features
• There are 2 versions of the XTP601 available:
• The XTP601 is calibrated in a specific background gas to match
customer's requirements. This is displayed on the front screen of the
analyzer or via the Application Software.
• The XTP601 provides 2 off 4-20 mA analog output signals that are
proportional to the oxygen concentration. The primary 4-20 mA output
is locked on the calibrated range of the instrument. The secondary
output is user-selectable within the calibrated range.
• Modbus RTU over RS485 protocol serial communications are provided
as standard.

Transmitter (base model)
• Accuracy of 1% FS or 0.02% O
ranges ±0.2% O2).
• Zero and span stability of 0.25% of span per month.
• The Thermo-Paramagnetic sensor used in the XTP601 Oxygen Analyzer
has no moving parts. This makes it less sensitive to vibration and
movement and highly resistant to drift over a long period of time,
compared to other sensing technologies.
• Innovative sensor design which minimizes zero drift and offers
increased protection against contamination.
• The robust and weather-proof enclosure (IP66 rated) allows the XTP601
to be installed on-site, at the point of measurement. It is also available
with an explosion-proof casing and certified to II 2 GD Ex d IIB+H2 T6
Gb, Ex tb IIIC T85°C Db IP66 T amb -40°C to +55°C. (Dependant on
O-Ring selection, see Section 1.3.)
• All of the analyzer functions can be accessed via the touch screen
(capacitive) buttons (on display model), or via the Application Software.
• Low cost of ownership due to minimal maintenance. When required,
the casing unscrews to allow for easy access to the sensor, enabling
maintenance to be carried out quickly and easily.

• The XTP601 is certified to ATEX, IECEX, cCSAus, INMETRO & TC TR Ex
for use in hazardous areas.
• 2 x single pole change-over relay alarms for oxygen concentration,
supplied as standard. Can be configured as OFF, LOW or HIGH on the
analyzer (GP1 or EX1) version or LOW or HIGH on the transmitter (GP3
or EX3) version.

1.2 Applications
The XTP601 has a robust sensor with high sensitivity and stability. It can be factorycalibrated in varying backgrounds to match the customer’s process gas. The analyzer
has a built-in local user interface with a display. The capacitive buttons work through
the glass face, without needing to remove the lid.
Together with the purpose designed sampling system, the XTP601 is able to work under
various process and environmental conditions. Examples of applications include:
• Monitoring inert blanketing gases
• Oxygen measurement at inlet of compressors in steel or gas industries
for safety
• Biogas, waste, landfill and digester plants
• Inert gas for pharmaceutical industry and painting gas
INTRODUCTION
• Catalyst regeneration
1.3 O-Ring Selection
The XTP601 is available with 3 types of O-rings to offer greater flexibility with material
compatibility. The Viton O-ring is fitted as standard. The EKRAZ O-ring is available for
solvent resistance. For extremely low temperatures there is a closed cell Silicone O-ring.
To comply with Hazardous Area certification, the material used in the EX1 & EX3 versions
is dependent on the lowest ambient temperature of the area the units are to be installed
in:
Ambient operating range:
-40°C to +55°C (-40°F to +131°F) (for Silicone version)
-15°C to +55°C (5°F to +131°F) (for Viton version) - Standard
-10°C to +55°C (14°F to +131°F) (for Ekraz version)
NOTE: Silicone O-ring is not suitable for oxygen enriched samples,
i.e. 0
> 21%.

2 OPERATION
This analyzer has been manufactured within our quality procedures and is configured
according to the purchase order. When it is installed and used as per the manufacturer’s
guidelines, it will operate within the stated specification.
Before starting operation it is recommended that the user becomes familiar with this
manual in which all the equipment controls, indicators, the elements of the display and
the overall menu structure are described.
XTP601 User’s Manual
The XTC601 is not certifi ed for use with ambient oxygen
levels that are enriched (i.e. over 21% O2)
2.1 Preparation
Zero and Span gas cylinders with correct regulation and flow control should be in place
before installing and powering up the analyzer. Commissioning should include a check
with both gases and, if necessary, a field calibration performed.
All analyzers will be calibrated with an inlet pressure of 1 barg (14 psig) with an
atmospheric vent and flow rate of 300 ml/min (0.63 scfh). The calibration gas applied
to the analyzer should be at the same pressure and flow rate as the process gas being
sampled.
Sample Inlet Pressure:
• 0 to 4 barg (0 to 58 psig)
Before applying power and beginning the fl ow of gas,
please ensure that the system has been properly installed
following the instructions in Section 4.
Check that the wiring has been completed correctly.
Sample Flow Rate:
GP1 & GP3 models: 100 to 500 ml/min (0.2 to 1.06 scfh)
After all the preparation work is done and the installation
and wiring have been checked, turn on the analyzer and
wait for at least 30 minutes (or until
message disappears). This will allow the analyzer to
reach its operating temperature of +50°C (or +60°C if
higher temperature cell is chosen) and protect it from any
There is no power switch on the XTP601 Oxygen Analyzer. It is turned on automatically
once a 24 V DC power source is applied. After the analyzer is powered up, the display
will be illuminated. The analyzer takes up to 5 seconds to initialize, and during this
period will display the product type and firmware version number.
