1.1 OVERVIEW
The Model 951A NO/NOx Analyzer continuously analyzes a flowing gas sample performing one of two switch selectable determinations:
1. Nitric oxide (NO); or
2. Combined nitric oxide (NO) and nitrogen dioxide (NO,) designated NOx. By definition [NOx] = [NO] + [NO2].
Typical applications include analyzing vehicular exhaust emissions from internal combustion engines and monitoring the effluent from stationary (stack) sources
The analyzer utilizes the chemiluminescent method of detection In the nitric oxide determination, sample NO is quantitatively converted into NO2 by gas-phase oxidation with molecular ozone produced within the analyzer from air or oxygen supplied by an external cylinder. A characteristic of this reaction is the elevation of approximately 10% of the NO2 molecules to an electronically-excited state, followed by immediate reversion to the non-excited state accompanied by emission of photons.
The emitted photons impinge on a photomultiplier detector generating a low-level DC current. The current is amplified to drive a front panel meter and an accessory potentiometric recorder if desired.

NTRODUCTION
I
To minimize noise and reduce dark current, the photomultiplier tube is mounted in a thermoelectrically-cooled housing with temperature held constant at about 59oF (15oC). Control circuitry is contained in the 652831 Cooler Temperature Controller/Power Supply Assembly. The power supply circuit provides a high-current source of DC voltage. A thermistor sensor attached to the housing, and an associated switching transistor, control a pass transistor, providing closely regulated on-off control.
Attached to the cooler housing is thermal fuse F3, setpoint 150oF (65oC). This fuse protects the thermoelectric cooler against the overheating that otherwise could occur as a result of excessively high ambient temperature or failure of a fan.
CAUTION: EXCESSIVE HEAT
Do not operate this analyzer without the air duct covering the cooling fins of the thermoelectric cooler. Excessive heat may damage the cooling devices. The cooler indicator lamp DS1 (mounted on the upper left side of the inner flow regulator panel and can be viewed through the window) will cycle on and off until a control point is reached.
Analyzer functioning for the NOx determination is identical to that described above for the NO determination except that, before entry into the reaction chamber, the sample is routed through a converter where the NO2 component is dissociated to form NO. Instrument response is proportional to total NO in the converted sample, that is the sum of the NO present in the original sample plus the NO produced by dissociation of NO2.
To minimize system response time an internal sample-bypass feature provides high-velocity sample flow through the analyzer.
The electronic circuitry is modularized, utilizing plug-in p rinted circuit boards with solid state components and test jacks for easy troubleshooting and replacement.
If desired, the Model 951A may be factory equipped with various optional features in addition to the standard features of the basic instrument. Brief descriptions of the principal options are given in the following section.
1.2 OPTIONS
ANGE
R
I.D.
1-2
This option provides contact closure signals that enable a computer or other external device to identify the setting of the front panel PPM RANGE Switch. The Model 7D Thermal Conductivity Analyzer is designed to continuously measure the concentration
July 2000 Rosemount Analytical 556383-YModel 951A NO/NOx Analyzer
NTRODUCTION
I
of a single component of interest in a flowing gas mixture. The measurement is based on the different thermal conductivity's of the individual components of the sample stream. The method is especially well suited to analysis of two-component sample streams. However, analysis of multi-component streams is possible if the various components of the background gas occur in relatively constant ratio, or have similar thermal conductivity's.
EMOTE RANGE CHANGE
R
For applications where remote operation of the analyzer is desired, as in an emission test console, the Remote Range Change Option may be used. This option permits either the operator or a computer to override and disable the front panel MODE and PPM RANGE Switches and thus to control selection of: (a) NO or NOx mode, and (b) parts-per-million range.
The unit consists of an electrical plug connector with plug-in logic card and harness for connection to a rear panel terminal strip on the analyzer.
ANGE
R
AND REMOTE RANGE CHANGE
I.D.
The Range I.D./Remote Range Change Option is a combination of the Range I.D. and Remote Range Change options. This option is compatible with a user supplied remote control system employing a 24 VDC digital output and input for analyzer range control and analyzer range sense, respectively. It is completely integral within the analyzer and provides a terminal strip on the rear of the analyzer for connections of the user cable.
AMPLE PUMP
S
The basic Model 951A is designed to accept pressurized samples. To permit analysis of gases at atmospheric or sub-atmospheric pressure the analyzer may be equipped with an optional, internally mounted sample pump. This option is not available on Low Tempco versions of the 951A. An external, accessory pump can be ordered instead.

2.1 FACILITY PREPARATION
Sections 2.1.1 through 2.1.3 provide information that may be required prior to installation of the analyzer.
2.1.1 O
2.1.2 L
2.1.3 P
UTLINE AND MOUNTING DIMENSIONS
Significant dimensions are shown in Figure 2-1.
OCATION
Install analyzer in a clean area, not subject to excessive vibration or extreme temperature variations .
Preferably, the analyzer should be mounted near the sample stream, to minimize sample transport time. A circuit controlled by a thermal switch holds internal temperature of the analyzer to the correct operating temperature for ambient temperatures in the range 40oF to 100oF (4.4oC to 37.7oC). Temperatures outside
these limits necessitate use of special temperature controlling equipment or environmental protection.
Preferably, the cylinders of air (or oxygen) and span gas should be located in an area of relatively constant ambient temperature.
OWER REQUIREMENTS
Electrical power requirements are 107 to 127 VAC, 50/60 Hz, 1000 watts.
2.2 UNPACKING
Unpack instrument carefully. Preparatory to shipment, the photomultiplier tube housing and the sample pump (if instrument is so equipped) are immobilized with hold down screws, inserted from the bottom of the instrument and marked with red paint for identification. The hold down screws must be removed prior to operation of the instrument. In the event the instrument is ever returned to the factory, these screws must be replaced to ensure safe shipment.

Use to equalize pressure drop for NO and NOx legs of the internal flow system. Criterion for correct adjustment is an NO2 free nitric oxide standard gas should give equal readings of ppm for NO and NOx modes. An alternate flow balance check , if NO2 free standard gas is unavailable, is to verify that the reading on the SAMPLE pressure gauge is the same for NO and NOx modes.
Select either FAST or SLOW electronic response. When set to FAST, electronic response time (for 0 to 90% of fullscale) is then approximately one second for all ranges except 10 ppm, which is approximately three seconds. When set to SLOW (as in monitoring stack sources), electronic response time 0 to 90% of fullscale) is approximately ten seconds for all ranges.

2.3 GAS REQUIREMENTS
WARNING: HIGH PRESSURE GAS CYLINDERS
This instrument requires use of oxygen and a known standard gas in high pressure cylinders. Refer to Handling and Storing High Pressure Gas Cylinders located in the rear of this manual.
IR OR OXYGEN
A
This is used as both (a) oxygen source for generation of the ozone required for the chemiluminescent reaction, and (b) standard gas for zero calibration. Gas for both purposes may be supplied from a single cylinder and routed through a tee. Alternatively, two separate cylinders may be used.
Oxygen is usable in all applications. Air is suitable for the oxygen source only if the desired fullscale operating range is 2500 parts-per-million or less. Breathing grade oxygen or air is recommended. Clean, dried ambient air containing less than 0.1 parts-per-million nitric oxide may be used, provided that its de wpoint is below -10oF (­23oC). If air is insufficiently dried, or contains excessive nitric oxide, instrument response will not be linear to 2500 ppm.

PAN GAS
S
This is a standard gas of accurately known composition, used to set an upscale calibration point.
Alternative span gases are:
1. The usual span gas is NO in a background of nitrogen.
2. For span check or adjustment in the NOx mode, the span gas may be NO2 in a background of air or nitrogen.
3. For convenient calibration in either the NO or NOx mode, the span gas may be a cylinder gas mixture consisting of known concentrations of both NO and NO2 in a background of nitrogen.
Note For maximum calibration accuracy, the concentration of NO and/or NO2 in the
span gas should be as near as possible to that in the sample gas. Also, the span gas should be supplied to the rear panel SAMPLE inlet at the same pressure as the sample gas. To ensure constant pressure, a pressure regulator may be utilized immediately upstream from the SAMPLE inlet.
Preferably, each gas used should be supplied from a tank or cylinder equipped with a clean, non-corrosive type two stage regulator. In addition, a shut-off valve is desirable. If possible, install the gas cylinders in an area of relatively constant ambient temperature.
2.4 SAMPLE REQUIREMENTS
The Sample must be relatively clean and dry before entering the analyzer. In general, before admission to the analyzer, the sample should be filtered to 2 microns and should have a dewpoint below 90oF (32oC). The factory can provide technical assistance if desired .
Proper supply pressures for sample and span gases depend on whether or not the analyzer is equipped with the optional 632748 Sample Pump:
For the basic Model 951A, without sample pump, sample must be supplied to the SAMPLE inlet at a pressure of 5 to 10 psig (34.5 to 69 kPa). This ensures that the normal bypass flow of two liters per minute will be obtainable by adjustment of the BYPASS Needle Valve. (Proper bypass flow is essential for rapid system response and stable flow into reaction chamber.)
For an analyzer equipped with sample pump, the acceptable pressure range at the SAMPLE inlet is 0 to 5 psig (0 to 34.5 kPa). The pump pressurizes the sample to between 5 and 10 psig (34.5 to 69 kPa) for supply to the internal flow system.

1. Remove plugs and caps from all inlet and outlet fittings. See Figure 2-4.
2. Connect EXHAUST outlet to outside vent via tubing with O.D. of 1/4 inch (6.3mm) or larger.
3. Connect external lines from air (or oxygen) cylinder and sample source to corresponding rear panel inlet ports. For sample line, stainless steel tubing is recommended.
4. Adjust regulator on air (or oxygen) cylinder for output pressure of 35 to 40 psig (251 to 276 kPa).
Supply sample gas to rear panel SAMPLE inlet at appropriate pressure: 5 to 10 psig (34.5 to 69 kPa) for basic analyzer without sample pump; 0 to 5 psig (0 to 34.5 kPa) for analyzer with pump.

Preparatory to startup and operation, a thorough familiarization with Table 2-1 and Figures 2-2, 2-3 and 2-4 is recommended. These figures give locations and brief descriptions of operating controls. For more detailed information on controls, refer to Section Five.
3.1 STARTUP PROCEDURE
Following are detailed stepwise instructions on startup and calibration. For convenience, condensed instructions for startup, routine calibration and normal operation are provided at the front of this manual.
1. W ith power removed from analyzer, check front panel meter. It should read zero; if not, adjust Mechanical Zero Screw at rear of meter for zero reading.
2. Place front panel PPM RANGE Switch at 1000.
WARNING: OZONE HAZARD
When instrument power is on, the ultraviolet source sample is energized, converting a portion of the oxygen contained with the ozonator into ozone. With normal flow through the ozonator, the ozonized air or oxygen is continuously swept though the ozonator and into the reaction chamber. If flow is stopped, however, the ozone will diffuse and will attack the sintered metallic restrictor element in the tee fitting at the upstream end of the ozonator. Operation of the analyzer with the restrictor element thus rusted will result in the following consequences: Reduced flow of air or oxygen through the ozonator, ozone deprivation within the reaction chamber and non-linear response of the analyzer to NO/NOx.
To prevent such damage, verify that the front panel ozone ON/OFF switch is turned off if flow of feed gas to the air inlet is terminated.
3. Set front panel MODE Switch at NO or NOx. Place POWER Switch at ON. Electrical power is now being supplied to all circuits, including sample pump if analyzer is so equipped. Analyzer will now require approximately one hour for temperature equilibration before ready for calibration.

4. Establish correct pressure for air oxygen: a. Verify that pressure regulator on cylinder of air or oxygen is set for supply
pressure of 35 to 40 psig (242 to 276 kPa).
a. On internal gas control panel, Figure 2-3. adjust OZONE Pressure Regulator so
that OZONE Pressure Gauge indicates either 20 psig (138 kPa) or 30 psig (207 kPa), depending on the desired operating range.
5. Establish correct flow of sample gas: a. Supply sample gas to rear panel SAMPLE inlet. b. Adjust SAMPLE Backpressure Regulator so SAMPLE Pressure Gauge
indicates the value appropriate to the desired operating range.
c. Adjust BYPASS Needle Valve for reading of two liters per minute on BYPASS
Flowmeter.
Note Inability to obtain a bypass flow of two liters per minute by adjustment of the
BYPASS Needle Valve usually indicates insufficient sample supply pressure at the SAMPLE inlet.
6. Establish correct flow of zero air: a. Supply zero air to rear panel SAMPLE inlet. b. Note reading on SAMPLE Pressure Gauge. It should be the same as in Step
5b. If not, adjust output pressure regulator on air cylinder as required.
7. Establish correct flow of upscale standard gas: a. Supply upscale standard gas to rear panel SAMPLE inlet. b. Note reading on SAMPLE Pressure Gauge. It should be the same as in Step
5b. If not, adjust output pressure regulator on cylinder of upscale standard gas as required.
Note Supply pressures for sample and upscale standard gases must be the same;
otherwise, readout will be in error.
The Analyzer is now ready for calibration per Section 3.2.

parts-per-million concentration of NO or NOx in the span gas. In operation at
NOx levels in the range of 2500 to 10000 parts-per-million, the correct reading
may not be obtainable, initially, by adjustment of the SPAN Control. The cause
is that the reduced sample flow required for linearity results in lowered
sensitivity and slower response. To compensate for these effects, make the
electronic adjustments of Steps (e) and (f) below. e. If necessary, increase sensitivity by raising photomultiplier voltage per Section
6.1, Step 5.

3.3 MEASURING EFFICIENCY OF NO2 TO NO CONVERTER AND ADJUSTING TEMPERATURE SETPOINT
It is the responsibility of the user to measure efficiency of the NO2 to NO converter during initial startup and thereafter at intervals appropriate to the application, normally once a month.
The reactant material used in the converter provides the optimum combination of high conversion efficiency and low ammonia interference. Unlike most competitive analyzers, the Model 951A utilizes a reactant material that gradually becomes more efficient at a given temperature , and thus after a period of use may permit operation with a lower temperature setpoint than that required initially.
Conversion efficiency in the Model 951A is typically 95% to 98% +, considerably above the 90% minimum accepted by the EPA. Refer to 40 CFR 60, App. A, Method 20, Section 5.6.
3.3.1 T
EST SETUP FOR MEASUREMENT OF CONVERSION EFFICIENCY
3-4
A typical setup for measurement of conversion efficiency is shown in Figure 3-2A. The test setup includes:
1. A cylinder of nitric oxide standard gas consisting of NO in N2. The concentration of NO in the standard gas should be about the fullscale value of the range under test. The test sample supplied to the analyzer should contain a concentration of NO
July 2000 Rosemount Analytical 556383-YModel 951A NO/NOx Analyzer
TARTUP
S
comparable to that in the samples that are to be analyzed. Alternately, a higher concentration NO standard may be used if the test setup includes provision for diluting it appropriately with zero air. Suitable standard gases are available from various suppliers. Stainless steel cylinders are commonly used, but specially treated aluminum is preferre d for low parts-per-million NO samples.
2. An ozone generator utilizing an ultraviolet lamp, not a corona discharge. A corona discharge ozone generator is undesirable as it may produce oxygen atoms, which can then combine with atmospheric nitrogen to form NO. The result can be an erroneously high value for the measured conversion efficiency.
3.3.2 T
EST PROCEDURE
1. Measure converter temperature by connecting a millivolt meter to terminals 5 (+) and 6 (-) on TB9. Within the analyzer, these terminals are connected to a Type J thermocouple. Note present reading as a reference for comparison with subsequent measurements. The optimum temperature differs from one analyzer to another. but typically is in the range of 660oF to 750oF (350oC to 400oC).
2. Turn front panel CONVERTER ADJUST one turn counterclockwise, to lower temperature setpoint slightly from the original factory setting. Wait 15 minutes for temperature equilibration, then proceed to Step 3.
3. Refer to Figure 3-2. Connect the Model 958 NO2 Converter Efficiency Tester to the Model 951A, and use the following procedure, adapted from 40 CFR 60, to determine the values to be used in Equation (A):
a. Attach the NO/N2 supply at C2. the air supply at C1, and the analyzer inlet
connection at C3.
b. With the variable transformer off, place Model 951A in NO mode and close
valve MV1. Open valve MV2 until Model 951A SAMPLE Pressure Gauge reaches operating pressure and BYPASS Flowmeter indicates some bypass flow. Wait until stable readings are obtained at analyzer. Zero and span the analyzer output to indicate the value of the NO concentration being used. This value should be approximately 80% of fullscale. Record this concentration.
c. Open valve MV1 (air supply metering valve) and adjust to blend enough air to
lower the NO concentration (ii) about 10%. Record this concentration.
d. Turn on the ozonator and increase its supply voltage until the NO concentration
of (iii) is reduced to about 20 percent of (ii). NO2 is now being formed from the NO + O3 reaction. There must always be at least 10 percent un-reacted NO at this point. Record this concentration.
e. W hen a stable reading has been obtained from (iv), place Model 951A in NOx
mode. It will now indicate the total NOx concentration. Record this concentration.

f. Turn off the ozonator and allow the analyzer reading to stabilize. This reading is
the total NOx concentration of the dilute NO span ga s used at step (iii). Record this concentration.
f. Close valve MV1. The NO concentration should be equal to or greater than the
reading of (ii). Indicating whether the NO contains any NO2.
g. Calculate the efficiency of the NO converter by substituting the concentrations
obtained during the test into the following equation.
Equation (A)
% Efficiency = 1 + X 100
v-vi iii-iv
In the example of Figure 3-2B,
% Efficiency = 1 + X 100% = 92%
85-90 80-20
Efficiency checks should be made on each analyzer range, using an NO span gas concentration appropriate to the instrument range.
Note
In the initial measurement, following lowering of the temperature setpoint in Step 2, the efficiency will normally be less than 92%.
4. Turn CONVERTER ADJUST one quarter turn clockwise, thus raising temperature setpoint slightly. Wait 15 minutes for temperature equilibration. Again measure conversion efficiency per Step 3; it should be somewhat improved.

6. Turn CONVERTER ADJUST one-eighth turn counterclockwise, thus lowering temperature setpoint very slightly. Converter temperature is now set at a point on the front edge of the plateau on the efficiency-vs.-temperature curve, Figure 3-3. This setting should provide the optimum combination of high conversion efficiency and low ammonia interference. Wait about fifteen minutes for temperature equilibration, then again measure converter temperature as in Step 1. Compare present temperature with original value.

UBNORMAL CONVERSION EFFICIENCY
If a measured conversion efficiency of 95% is unobtainable within the normal temperature range, the most probable cause is depletion of the catalytic material within the converter. However, before concluding that the converter is defective, make sure that the conversion efficiency measurement is accurate. Even though the measured eff iciency is less th an 95%, the actual efficiency may be somewhat higher. An apparent subnormal efficiency can be due to a problem external to the analyzer, located either within the test setup, or between it and the analyzer. Check for the following:
1. Leakage.
2. Loss of NO2 between test setup and analyzer. Such loss can occur by reaction with a rubber diaphragm in a pressure regulator or flow controller. Stainless steel diaphragms are preferred. Loss can also occur during passage through filter media.
3.3.4 R
EPLACEMENT OF CONVERTER
If it is determined that the subnormal conversion efficiency is real, and not due to measurement error introduced by the test setup, the converter must be replaced per Section 6.2.3. The usual cause of converter failure is destruction of a large part of the catalytic material by excessive heat, due either to excessively high temperature setpoint or failure of the converter temperature control circuit.
3.3.5 C
APILLARIES
Replacement capillaries shou ld be installed finge r-tight. Use of a wrench can constrict capillaries, changing flow rate.
3.3.6 TEA S
CRUBBER
The TEA Scrubber accessory (PN 635741) can be used to remove residual NO2 from the NO cylinders. Use of this accessory allows a true calibration of the analyzer.
White crystal deposits on the windows of the reaction chamber and plugging of capillaries and vent are usually due to sample contaminates reacting with the high ozone levels. To eliminate the contaminates, the sampling system should be reworked or a preventive maintenance program developed (if dropout is not excessive). Another source of crystalline formation is contaminated air.

4.1 ROUTINE OPERATION
After calibrating analyzer per Section 3.2, supply sample to SAMPLE inlet. Place MODE Switch in NO or NOx position, depending on the desired determination. Set PPM RANGE Switch in appropriate position. The instrument will now continuously analyze the sample stream.
The Model 951A is designed for continuous operation. Normally, it is never turned off except for servicing or for a prolonged shutdown. However, if the instrument is to remain idle for an extended period with power on, the recommended practice is to leave the MODE Switch in NO position to de-energize the NO/NOx Mode Switching Solenoid Valve.
4.2 RECOMMENDED CALIBRATION FREQUENCY
After initial startup, or startup following a shutdown, the analyzer requires about one hour for stabilization before it is ready for calibration. Maximum permissible interval between calibrations depends on the analytical accuracy required, and therefore cannot be specified. It is recommended that initially the instrument be calibrated at least once every eight hours, and that this practice be continued until experience or requirements indicate that some other interval is more appropriate.

ITRIC OXIDE DETERMINATION BY CHEMILUMINESCENCE METHOD
The chemiluminescence method for detection of nitric oxide (NO) is based on its reaction with ozone (O3) to produce nitrogen dioxide (NO2) and oxygen (O2). Some of the nitrogen dioxide molecules thus produced are initially in an electronically excited state (NO2*). These revert immediately to the ground state, with emission of photons. The reactions involved are:
NO + O3 NO2* + O NO2* NO2 + hv
where
h = Planck's constant v = frequency, Hz
As NO and O3 mix in the reaction chamber, the chemiluminescence reaction produces light emission that is directly proportional to the concentration of NO. This emission is measured by a photomultiplier tube and associated electronic circuitry. Refer to Section 5.3.
ETERMINATION
2
The NOx determination is identical to the NO determination described in Section 5.1.1 except that, prior to entry into the reaction chamber, the sample is routed through a converter where the NO2 component is converted into NO. The reaction is:
2NO2 2NO + O
Instrument response is proportional to total NO in the converted sample, that is, to the sum of the NO originally present in the sample plus the NO resulting from conversion of NO2. This sum of NO and NO2 is commonly termed NOx, i.e., ([NOx] = [NO] + [NO2]).

capillary. The regulator is adjusted for appropriate reading on the SAMPLE Pressure Gauge. For operation at NOx levels below 2,500 parts-per-million, correct setting on the SAMPLE Pressure Gauge is 4 psig (27.6 kPa), resulting in a flow of approximately 60 cc/min to the reaction chamber. For operation at NOx levels in the range of 2,500 to 10,000 parts-per-millio n, se ttin g on SAMP LE Pressure Gau ge shou ld b e 1.5 p sig (10 .3 kPa), resulting in a flow of approximately 20 cc/min to the reaction chamber.
Gas in excess of the flow required for the reaction chamber is discharged through the BYPASS Flowmeter and out the BYPASS outlet. Bypass flow should be two liters per minute to ensure optimum functioning of the SAMPLE Pressure Regulator and rapid system response. Total flow of sample or standard gas into the SAMPLE inlet is adjusted by means of the BYPASS Needle Valve (or optional flow controller). Excessive changes, on the order of ±5 psig (±34.5 kPa), in the pressure of the sample or standard gas will affect the bypass flow rate and can affect accuracy.

LOW OF AIR OR OXYGEN
WARNING: OZONE HAZARD
When instrument power is on, the ultraviolet source sample is energized, converting a portion of the oxygen contained with the ozonator into ozone. With normal flow through the ozonator, the ozonized air or oxygen is continuously swept though the ozonator and into the reaction chamber. If flow is stopped, however, the ozone will diffuse and will attack the sintered metallic restrictor element in the tee fitting at the upstream end of the ozonator. Operation of the analyzer with the restrictor element thus rusted will result in the following consequences: Reduced flow of air or oxygen through the ozonator, ozone deprivation within the reaction chamber and non-linear response of the analyzer to NO/NOx.
To prevent such damage, verify that the front panel ozone ON/OFF switch is turned off if flow of feed gas to the air inlet is terminated.
Suitably pressurized air or oxygen from an external cylinder is supplied to the rear panel AIR inlet. Immediately downstream from the inlet, a regulator and associated gauge provide pressure adjustment and indication for air or oxygen. Proper pressure setting. and the corresponding flow to the ozone generator, will depend on sample NOx level. Refer to Table 3-1.
1. For operation at NOx levels below 1,000 parts-per-million, correct air pressure setting on OZONE Pressure Gauge is 20 psig (138 kPa), resulting in a flow of approximately 500 cc/min of air to the ozone generator.
2. For operation at NOx levels in the range of 1,000 to 2,500 parts-per-million, air pressure setting on OZONE Pressure Gauge should be 30 psig (207 kPa),

resulting in a flow of approximately 1 liter per minute of air to the ozone generator.
3. For operation at NOx levels in the range of 2,500 to 10,000 parts-per-million, oxygen pressure setting on OZONE Pressure Gauge should be 30 psig (207 kPa), resulting in a flow of approximately 1 liter per minute of oxygen to the ozone generator.
Within the ozone generator, a portion of the oxygen in the stream is converted into
ozone by exposure to ultraviolet radiation from a lamp source. From the generator, the flow passes into the reaction chamber for use in the chemiluminescence reaction.

LOW SYSTEM OPERATING MODES
Downstream from the BYPASS Needle Valve, the sample or standard gas flows through either the FLOW BALANCE Needle Valve or the NO2 to NO converter, depending on the status of NO/NOx Mode Switching Solenoid Valve K3. Status of this valve depends on whether the front panel MODE Switch is in NO or NOx position.
Operation for NO and NOx determination is as follows:
NO D
ETERMINATION
Sample or standard gas is supplied to the rear panel SAMPLE inlet, passes in turn through the BYPASS Needle Valve, NO/NOx Mode Switching Solenoid Valve K3, the sample capillary, and on to the reaction chamber. Since the NO2 to NO converter is bypassed, any NO2 component originally present in the sample remains in the NO form and does not contribute to the output signal. (During startup, the FLOW BALANCE Needle Valve is adjusted to equalize flow rated for NO and NOx flow modes.)
NOX D
ETERMINATION
Sample or standard gas supplied to the rear panel SAMPLE inlet passes in turn through the BYPASS Needle Valve, the NO2 to NO converter, the solenoid valve, the sample capillary and on to the reaction chamber. With the sample now routed through the converter, the NO2 component is converted into NO prior to entry into the reaction chamber, and thus will contribute to the output signal.

5-4
During startup, the FLOW BALANCE Needle Valve is adjusted to equalize flow rates for NO and NOx flow modes. Criterion for correct adjustment is that an NO2 free nitric oxide standard gas should give equal readings of parts-per-million for NO and NOx modes.
An alternate method of checking flow balance, usable if NO2 free standard gas is unavailable, is to verify that the reading on the SAMPLE Pressure Gauge is the same for NO and NOx modes. If not, adjust FLOW BALANCE Needle Valve as required.

ONVERTER BLEED FLOW
Even in converter bypass condition (i.e., de-energized state of the solenoid valve), a flow of approximately 100 cc/min of sample or standard gas passes continuously through the converter and the bleed capillary. This bleed flow pro vides f aster respo nse and ensures that the sample within the converter is current. Bleed flow need not be precisely 100 cc/min. However, an excessively low bleed flow will result in impaired response. Conversely, use of excessively high bleed flow may result in failure to obtain the required flow of 60 cc/min for the reaction chamber. Thus the nominal value of 100 cc/min represents a compromise between response time requirements and sample supply.
5.3 ELECTRONIC CIRCUITRY
Photons emitted during the chemiluminescence reaction (Section 5.1.1) impinge on the end-on photomultiplier tube, generating a signal current of approximately 3 x 10 amperes per parts-per-million concentration of NO in the reaction chamber. This current is measured by an electrometer amplifier.
A functional diagram of the electronic signal circuitry is shown in Figure 5-2. For a more detailed presentation of the signal circuitry, plus control circuitry for actuation of NO/NOx Mode Switching Solenoid Valve, etc., refer to the overall schematic and pictorial diagrams in the rear of this manual, respectively.

As shown in Figure 5-2, the anode of the photomultiplier tube is connected to the inverting input of AR1, and integrated circuit MOSFET amplifier with extremely high input impedance to minimize loading effects, and comparatively low output impedance to match the following stage. The signal from AR1 is directed to integrated circuit amplifier AR2 for addition al gain.
The front panel ZERO Contro l applies an adjustable zero-biasi ng signal to the input of AR1, to permit setting the zero point on the meter scale or recorder chart.
For adjustment of overall sensitivity, the current measuring circuitry utilizes two front panel controls:
1. The PPM RANGE Switch, associated with AR1, provides a choice of seven fullscale sensitivities, obtained by a combination of high/low feedback selection and output attenuation. Potentiometers R31, R32, R33 and R34 are adjustable to provide inter-range correlation of exactly adjusted integral multiples. Refer to Section 6.1, Step 3.
2. The SPAN Control, associated with AR2, provides continuously variable gain through feedback adjustment. A voltage divider network associated with AR2 provides a selectable output for a potentiometric recorder.
The following sections describe electronic circuitry of individual circuit boards.

Front Panel SPAN Control: Provides continuously variable adjustment of AR2 gain. Response Time Selection Switch SW2: Provides choice of fast or slow response:
With switch in FAST position, electronic response time (for 0 to 90% of fullscale) is approximately one second for all ranges except 10 ppm, approximately three seconds for 10 ppm range.
For such applications as monitoring of stack sources, where slow response is desired, switch is placed in SLOW position. Electronic response time (0 to 90% of fullscale) is then approximately 10 seconds for all ranges. Closure of the switch connects capacitors C7 and C8 across resistor R17, thus increasing the RC time constant.
Recorder Output Selection Switch SW1: The desired recorder output is obtained by closing the corresponding contact on Switch SW1, thus selecting the appropriate tap on a voltage divider connected across the output of AR2.
Meter Span Adjustment Potentiometer R22: Potentiometer R22, adjustable by insertion of a screwdriver through the hole in the amplifier cover, permits adjusting the fullscale span of the meter so that meter readout agrees with recorder readout.

RONT PANEL MODE SWITCH AND ASSOCIATED
, F
As shown in Drawings 649834 and 649835, actuation of NO/NOx Switching Solenoid Valve K3, associated with the NO2 to NO converter, is controlled by front panel MODE Switch SW2 via the valve driver circuit on the Valve Control Board. With MODE Switch in NO position, the solenoid valve is de-energized, placing the converter in bypass condition. With switch in NOx position, the solenoid valve is energized, placing the converter in in-line condition.
Drawing 656313 shows internal circuitry of the Valve Control Board. The valve driver circuit consists of a single-pole, single-throw relay and associated TRIAC element. The relay is used only to switch the gate current for the TRIAC; therefore, power carried by the relay contacts is very small.

T
Each relay is connected to AC neutral while the associated TRIAC is connected to 115 VAC. When the relay closes, in response to closure of the associated contacts on the MODE Switch, gate current flows through the relay contacts and causes the TRIAC to fire. Resistance of the TRIAC becomes very small, causing application of 115 VAC across the solenoid. When the relay contacts open, the gate current is interrupted and the TRIAC stops conducting. Thus the relay controls the power applied to the solenoid.

OLT POWER SUPPLY
The ±15 Volt Power Supply provides power for the various circuits. As shown in Drawing 619710, power transformer T1 has three secondarys that are used as follows:
38 VAC center-tapped secondary - Powers both 15 volt supplies through diode bridge CR1 and filter capacitors C1 and C4.
The adjustable positive regulator, VR1, is set by voltage divider R1, R2 and R3; and its output is applied to pin A of the circuit board and to test point TP1. Potentiometer R2 should be adjusted to +15.5 VDC ±50 mVDC.
The negative DC, regulated by VR2, is applied to pin D of the circuit board. The center tap is the common reference for both the +15 and the -15 volt supplies and
is applied to pin R of the circuit board and test point TP2. Both outputs are used for individual amplifiers on the various circuit boards and for the
zero-biasing circuit associated with the front panel ZERO Control (Section 5.3.1).

As shown in Drawings 649834 and 649835, DC high voltage for the photomultiplier tube is provided by the 630922 High Voltage Power Supply. It operates from the ±15 Volt Power Supply (Section 5.3.3).
Drawings 652423 and 654348 shows internal circuitry of the high voltage power supply. It consists of a voltage regulator circuit utilizing non-inverting operational amplifier AR1 and a flux-switching DC to AC converter. Potentiometer R4 provides an adjustment range of approximately -650 V to -2100 V for the regulated DC voltage supplied to the photomultiplier. Nominal setting is for -900 V; however, during factory checkout of the individual instrument, R4 is adjusted as required for overall system sensitivity. If necessary, R4 is readjusted per Section 6.1, Step 5.

ONVERTER TEMPERATURE CONTROL BOARD AND ASSOCIATED ELEMENTS
The temperature control circuit for the NO2 to NO converter consists of:
Temperature sensor R3, a platinum resistance element m ounted in the converter. Converter Temperature Control Board. CONVERTER ADJUST potentiometer R6 mounted on the front panel, Figure 2-2. Resistive heating element within a lace-on jacket.
During startup, temperature of the platinum sensor is initially below the setpoint selected with the CONVERTER ADJUST potentiometer. Controller now switches to “on” condition, and applies power to the header via TRIAC element Q5. The controller remains in “on” condition until temperature of the platinum sensor has risen sufficiently to come within the range of the proportional band of the controller. The controller then switches alternately off and on during a two-second time base. to maintain the temperature of the heater at the setpoint.
Clockwise rotation of the CONVERTER ADJUST raises the setpoint; counterclockwise rotation lowers it. Setpoint adjustment is explained in Section 3.3.
Note When installing or reinstalling the lace-on healer jacket on the converter, make
sure that the yellow fiberglass sleeve on the temperature sensor leads is exposed and is not enclosed within the jacket. Otherwise, the insulation may burn off the sensor leads, causing short-circuiting of the sensor and temperature runaway or the converter heater.
ONVERTER TEMPERATURE READOUT THERMOCOUPLE
C
The Converter has an associated Type J thermocouple to permit temperature monitoring. The thermocouple connections, i.e., terminals 5(+) and 6(-) on TB9, are used to measure converter temperature in the range of 660oF to 750oF (350oC to 400oC). The optimum temperature differs from one analyzer to another. Refer to Section 3.3.
Note Converter temperature is not a direct measure of conversion efficiency.
Temperature measurement is for reference purposes only. An exact determination of conversion efficiency is performed by the procedure given in section 3.3.

EMOTE OPERATION OPTION
The Remote Operation Option, Figure 2-5, consists of a Plug-In Adapter Board with attached harness that terminates on a rear panel plate.
The adapter board has two two-position slide switches: the MAN/AUTO MODE Switch and the MAN/AUTO RANGE Switch.
The MAN/AUTO MODE Switch provides the choice of local or remote control of the NO/NOx Mode Switching Solenoid Valve, associated with the NO2 to NO converter. With switch at MAN, the function is under control of the front panel MODE Switch (Section 5.3.2). With switch at AUTO, the front panel MODE Switch is disabled; the function is then remotely controlled, by either the operator or a computer, via contact-closure signals applied to terminals on TB5.
The MAN/AUTO RANGE Switch provides the choice of local or remote selection of operating range. With switch at MAN, range selection is under control of the front panel PPM RANGE Switch. With switch at AUTO, the front panel PPM RANGE Switch is disabled; range selection is remotely controlled by either the operator or a computer, via contact-closure signals applied to terminals on TB6.
Control at TB5 and TB6 is accomplished by a contact closure from the terminal marked COM (for common) to the terminal marked with the name of the desired function. Contact closure requirements are 25 mA at 15 VDC.

VERALL SENSITIVITY
O
MPLIFIER BOARD
Principal factors that determine overall sensitivity of the analyzer are: (a) sample flow rate to the reaction chamber, and (b) sensitivity of the photomultiplier tube. If specified fullscale readings are unobtainable by adjustment of the SPAN Control, sensitivity is subnormal. The cause of the reduced sensitivity may be in either the flow system (Section 6.2) or the electronic circuitry (Section 6.3).
If either the High Voltage Board or the Phototube/Reaction Chamber Assembly has been replaced, a readjustment of R4 on the High Voltage Board will probably be required to obtain the correct overall sensitivity. Turn the adjustment in the appropriate direction: clockwise to increase photomultiplier high voltage and therefore sensitivity; or, counterclockwise to decrease voltage and sensitivity. Adjustment range is approximately -650 volts to -2100 volts for the regulated DC voltage applied to the photomultiplier. Nominal setting is for -1100 volts; however, the adjustment should be set as required for overall system sensitivity.
ZONE OUTPUT
O
Maximum concentration of NO or NOx which the analyzer will measure with linearity depends on both the ozone generator output and the sample flow rate. If the analyzer seems to be ozone limited at high concentrations of NO or NOx, possible causes are: incorrect sample flow rate, incorrect flow rate through ozone generator, malfunction in ozone generator or associated transformer.

With zero air supplied to rear panel SAMPLE inlet, and MODE Switch at either NO or NOx, excessive background current is evidenced by inability to obtain zero meter reading by adjustment of the ZERO Control. If background current is excessive, the cause must be found and corrected. The fault may be in either the electronic circuitry or the sample flow system.
First, establish proper performance of the electronic circuitry. Turn off high voltage by opening door. Turn on analyzer power. Verify that ZERO Control and amplifier are functioning properly. Close door and check for the following:
1. Excessive photomultiplier dark current. To check, shut off all flow to the ozone generator. Supply cylinder air to rear panel SAMPLE inlet. With MODE switch at NO, note response on meter or recorder. If background is still excessive, possible causes are: (1) leakage of ambient light to photomultiplier tube, or (2) defective photomultiplier tube.

Depending on when the instrument was made, one of two types of capillaries may be present: a) a black tubing with white Teflon inner sleeve, or b) a one-piece black Teflon tubing.
If clogging of sample capillary is suspected, measure flow rate as described below:
1. Turn off instrument power and shut off all gases.
2. Cover and shade the fittings on the reaction chamber with a dark cloth or other light-shielding material. While maintaining the area properly darkened, remove the fitting associated with the sample capilla ry (red-bande d tube) and place a cap o ver the open fitting to prevent entry of stray light.
Note If the opened fitting is inadvertently exposed to ambient light, the instrument will
temporarily give a highly noisy background reading. If so, this condition may be corrected by leaving the instrument on, with high voltage on, for several hours.
3. With instrument power off, supply suitable test gas (dry nitrogen or air) to rear panel SAMPLE inlet.

4. Connect a flowmeter to open end of sample capillary. Per Table 3-1, adjust SAMPLE Pressure Regulator to normal operating setting, and verify that flowmeter indicates appropriate flow.
If flow is correct, restore analyzer to normal operation. If flow is low, the capillary requires cleaning; proceed with the following steps:
1. On NO/NOx Mode Switching Solenoid Valve K3, remove fitting from port associated with sample capillary.
2. Clean capillary with alcohol, then purge with dry nitrogen for one minute. Reconnect capillary to K3.

If flow is stopped, however, the ozone will diffuse and will attack the sintered metallic restrictor element in the tee fitting at the upstream end of the ozonator. Operation of the analyzer with the restrictor element thus rusted will result in the following consequences: Reduced flow of air or oxygen through the ozonator, ozone deprivation within the reaction chamber and non-linear response of the analyzer to NO/NOx.
To prevent such damage, verify that the front panel ozone ON/OFF switch is turned off if flow of feed gas to the air inlet is terminated.
With instrument power off, supply suitable test gas (dry nitrogen or air) to rear panel AIR inlet. Cover photomultiplier housing with a dark cloth. At the fitting on the reaction chamber, disconnect the ozone tube (yellow banded) and place a cap over the open fitting to prevent entry of ambient light. Connect a flowmeter to open end of ozone tube. Adjust the OZONE Pressure Regulator so that OZONE Pressure Gauge indicates normal operating pressure, as listed in Table 3-1; verify that test flowmeter indicates appropriate flow, as listed in Table 3-1.
Subnormal flow indicates clogging in the flow path that supplies air or oxygen to the ozone generator. This path contains two pressure reducing elements:
1. A Restrictor, consisting of a metal fitting with internal fritted (metal membrane) restrictor, the fitting is upstream from the inlet port of the ozone generator. If the internal restrictor becomes plugged, the Restrictor must be replaced, as it cannot normally be cleaned satisfactorily.
2. A capillary connected from the outlet of the ozone generator to the ozone inlet of the reaction chamber (coded with a yellow dot). This capillary may be cleaned if desired. Remove the ozone capillary by a procedure similar to that given for the

sample capillary in Section 6.2.1, observing all cautions cited. Clean ozone capillary by same method used for sample capillary.
Test for Ozone Efficiency
Perform the following steps:
1. Span the instrument with sample at 5 lb.
2. Decrease the pressure in 1 lb. steps. The response should be equal steps.
If the steps are not equal, there is an ozone deficiency. The ozone transformer lamp should be checked.

LEANING REACTION CHAMBER
CAUTION: LIGHT DAMAGE
Photomultiplier will develop temporary electronic noise if exposed to ambient light with high voltage on. Damage may be permanent if exposure occurs with high voltage off. A temporary noisy condition may be corrected by leaving instrument on, with high voltage on, for several hours. The required recovery time depends on intensity and duration of the exposure. Noise level on the most sensitive range usually drops to normal within 24 hours.
If sample gas is properly filtered, the reaction chamber should not require cleaning. In event of carryover or contamination, however, the chamber should be disassembled to permit cleaning the quartz window and the optical filter. The following procedure is recommended.
1. Turn off instrument power and shut off all gases.
2. Cover and shade the Reaction Chamber Photomultiplier Assembly, Figure 6-3, with a dark cloth or other light shielding material.
CAUTION: HAND PROTECTION
Always wear surgical rubber gloves when handling reaction chamber.

3. At the front of the Reaction Chamber Photomultiplier Assembly, remove the three screws that secure the reaction chamber mounting bracket. See Figure 6-3. The middle screw is a 1/4-turn quick-release type; the two adjacent screws are the conventional continuous thread type.
4. With reaction chamber now free, detach its three tube fittings. See Figure 6-3.
5. Slide off and remove the reaction chamber from the housing. Take care not to let light enter.
6. Unscrew plastic end cap, Figure 6-4, thus freeing the quartz window and the red plastic optical filter.
7. Clean the reaction chamber by the appropriate one of the following two methods, “a” or “b”. Method “a” is applicable in most cases. Alternate method “b” is applicable when the instrument has shown high residual fluorescence, as indicated by high residual currents on a zero gas and high differentials between zero gas readings obtained with the ozone lamp on and off.
CAUTION: SOLVENT USAGE
For a solvent, use only distilled water, do not use alcohol or acetone.

a. Standard Cleaning Procedure Using a stiff plastic bristle brush, such as a toothbrush, scrub the Teflon surface
and gas ports of the reaction chamber with clean distilled water and Alconox detergent (634929). Alconox detergent is included in the shipping kit provided with the Model 951A NO/NOx Analyzer and is also available from Sargent-Welch Scientific Company under its Catalog Number S-19650-A.
Using Alconox and clean, soft facial tissue (NOT industrial wipes), carefully clean
the quartz window, vigorously flush reaction chamber and quartz window with clean distilled water. Blow out all possible water from internal passages of reaction chamber. Dry reaction chamber and quartz window in a warm oven at 125oF to 150oF (52oC to 66oC) for 30 to 45 minutes or purge dry the parts
with dry cylinder air or nitrogen to eliminate all moisture. b. Alternate Cleaning Procedure - For High Residual Fluorescence Holding the reaction chamber by the tube fittings, and using appropriate caution.
immerse the white Teflon part of the chamber in 50% concentrated Reagent
Grade HCl. After five minutes, rinse thoroughly with deionized water, then air
dry as in method “a” above.
8. Place parts in position and press on end cap so that mating threads engage properly, without cross-threading. Turn mating parts in one continuous motion until the parts bottom. Do not over torque.
9. With reaction chamber now assembled, replace and reconnect it in the reverse order of that used for removal.
6.2.5 P
HOTOMULTIPLIER TUBE AND HOUSING
The photomultiplier tube operates at high DC voltages (nominal range 600 to 1200 volts) and generates small currents that are highly amplified by the signal conditioning circuitry. It is therefore important that ambient humidity and condensed water vapor be excluded from the interior of the photomultiplier housing. Ambient humidity can result in electrical leakage, evidenced as abnormally high dark current. Water vapor or condensed moisture in contact with the thermoelectrically-cooled photomultiplier may be evidenced by abnormally high noise level during instrument readout on zero air or upscale standard gas.
The Reaction Chamber Photomultiplier Assembly, Figure 6-3, incorporates several features for exclusion of humidity and moisture. The photomultiplier socket assembly is potted with a high impedance compound and is sealed from external influences with epoxy and rubber gasket material. The socket assembly and the reaction chamber are sealed, with o-rings, into opposite ends of the tubular photomultiplier housing. The socket end of the housing may be sealed with either one or two o-rings, depending on the length of the phototube.

In addition, a rolled-up piece of blotter-like desiccant paper is inserted between the shield external to the housing. The desiccant paper ensures hermetic isolation of the housing despite possible minor leakage around the o-rings, and eliminates the effects of any humidity possibly trapped during assembly of the socket and the reaction chamber to the housing. If the photomultiplier housing is exposed to ambient air for a period of tie, the desiccant paper will absorb water. Before reassembly, the paper must then be heated in an oven at about 300oF (149oC) for at least two hours.
Within the housing is a humidity indicator which turns pink in the presence of humidity.

The following parts are recommended for routine maintenance and troubleshooting of your instrument. If the troubleshooting procedures do not resolve the problem, contact your local service office.
7.1 CIRCUIT BOARD REPLACEMENT POLICY
In most situations involving a malfunction of a circuit board, it is more practical to replace the board than to attempt isolation and replacement of the individual component, as the cost of test and replacement will exceed the cost of a rebuilt assembly. As standard policy, rebuilt boards are available on an exchange basis.
Because of the exchange policy covering circuit boards, the following list does not include individual electronic components. If circumstances necessitate replacement of an individual component, which can be identified by inspection or from the schematic diagrams, obtain the replacement component from a local source of supply.
