WARNING: INTERNAL ULTRAVIOLET LIGHT HAZARD
Ultraviolet light from the ozone generator can cause permanent eye damage. Do not look directly at the ultraviolet source in ozone generator. Use of ultraviolet filtering glasses is recommended.
WARNING: TOXIC CHEMICAL HAZARD
This instrument generates ozone which is toxic by inhalation and is a strong irritant to throat and lungs. Ozone is also a strong oxidizing agent. Its presence is detected by a characteristic pungent odor.
The instrument exhaust contains both ozone and nitrogen dioxide, both toxic by inhalation, and may contain other constituents of the sample gas which may be toxic. Such gases include various oxides of nitrogen, unburned hydrocarbons, carbon monoxide and other products of combustion reactions. Carbon monoxide is highly toxic and can cause headache, nausea, loss of consciousness, and death.
Avoid inhalation of the ozone produced within the analyzer and avoid inhalation of the sample and exhaust products transported within the analyzer. Avoid inhalation of the combined exhaust products at the exhaust fitting.
Keep all tube fittings tight to avoid leaks. See Section 2.6 for Leak Test Procedure.
Connect rear exhaust outlet to outside vent by a 1/4 inch (6.3 mm) or larger stainless steel or Teflon* line. Check vent line and connections for leakage.
WARNING: PARTS INTEGRITY
Tampering or unauthorized substitution of components may adversely affect safety of this product. Use only factory documented components for repair.
WARNING: HIGH PRESSURE GAS CYLINDERS
P2
This instrument requires periodic calibration with a known standard gas. See Paragraphs 2.5 and 3.3. See also General Precautions for Handling and Storing High Pressure Gas Cylinders, following Section Six.

WARNING: TOXIC AND OXIDIZING GAS HAZARDS
The ozone generator lamp contains mercury. Lamp breakage could result in mercury exposure. Mercury is highly toxic if absorbed through skin or ingested, or if vapors are inhaled.
HANDLE LAMP ASSEMBLY WITH EXTREME CARE
If lamp is broken, avoid skin contact and inhalation in the area of the lamp or the mercury spill.
Immediately clean up and dispose of the mercury spill and lamp residue as follows:
Wearing rubber gloves and goggles, collect all droplets of
mercury by means of a suction pump and aspirator bottle with long capillary tube. Alternatively, a commercially available mercury spill clean-up kit, such as J. T. Baker product No. 4439­01, is recommended.
Carefully sweep any remaining mercury and lamp debris into a
dust pan. Carefully transfer all mercury, lamp residue and debris into a plastic bottle which can be tightly capped. Label and return to hazardous material reclamation center.
Do not place in trash, incinerate or flush down sewer.
Cover any fine droplets of mercury in non-accessible crevices
with calcium polysulfide and sulfur dust.
CAUTION: TOPPLING HAZARD
This instrument’s internal pullout chassis is equipped with a safety stop latch located on the left side of the chassis.
When extracting the chassis, verify that the safety latch is in its proper (counter­clockwise) orientation.
If access to the rear of the chassis is required, the safety stop may be overridden by lifting the latch; however, further extraction must be done very carefully to insure the chassis does not fall out of its enclosure.
If the instrument is located on top of a table or bench near the edge, and the chassis is extracted, it must be supported to prevent toppling.
Failure to observe these precautions could result in personal injury and/or damage to the product.

ONDENSED STARTUP AND CALIBRATION
PROCEDURE
The following summarized instructions on startup and calibration are intended for operators already familiar with the analyzer.
For initial startup, refer to detailed instructions provided in Section 3.
1. Set slider switch on the Signal Board (Figure 3-2) to 250 ppm (see Figure 3-2).
2. Apply power to the analyzer. The analyzer will now require approximately one to two hours for temperature equilibrium before being ready for calibration.
3. Verify that the pressure regulator on the cylinder of zero gas (nitrogen or air) or sample gas is set for supply pressure of 10 to 17 psig.
4. Verify that the pressure regulator on the cylinder of air (ozonator supply) is set for supply pressure of 20 to 25 psig.
5. Establish correct pressure of sample gas: a. Supply sample gas to rear-panel SAMPLE inlet at 10 to 17 psig (normally
15 psig).
b. Adjust SAMPLE Back Pressure Regulator so that SAMPLE Pressure
Gauge indicates the value appropriate to the desired operating range (normal operating pressure is 3 to 5 psig). See Figure 3-1.
6. Establish correct pressure of zero gas: a. Supply zero gas to rear panel SAMPLE inlet and set to 15 psig. b. Note reading on SAMPLE Pressure Gauge. It should be the same as in
Step 5b. If not, adjust output pressure regulator on the zero gas cylinder as required.
7. Establish correct pressure 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 6b. If not, adjust output regulator on cylinder of upscale standard gas as required.
Note Supply pressure for sample, upscale standard gas and zero air must be the
same. If not, the readout will be in error.
8. Zero Calibration: a. Set PPM RANGE Switch for range to be used for sample analysis. Set
SPAN Control at normal operating setting, if known, or at about mid-range if
normal setting is not known. b. Supply zero gas to rear panel SAMPLE inlet. c. Adjust ZERO Control for reading of zero on meter or recorder.
9. Upscale Calibration: a. Set PPM RANGE Switch at setting appropriate to the particular span gas. b. Supply upscale standard gas of accurately known NOx content to rear
panel SAMPLE inlet.
c. Adjust SPAN Control so that reading on meter or recorder is equal to the
know parts-per-million concentration of NOx in the span gas.
Note 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.

1.1 OVERVIEW
The Model 951C NOx Analyzer is designed to measure NOx using one of two sets of ranges designated as Hi or Lo. The Hi Range set consists of spans with ranges of 0-100, 0-250, 0-1000, and 0-2500 ppm NOx. The Lo Range set consists of spans with ranges of 0-10, 0-25, 0-100, and 0-250 ppm NOx.
The NOx analyzer continuously analyzes a flowing gas sample for NOx [nitric oxide (NO) plus nitrogen dioxide (NO2)]. The sum of the concentrations is continuously reported as NOx.
The analyzer is based on the chemiluminescence method of NO detection. The sample is continuously passed through a heated bed of vitreous carbon, in which NO2 is reduced to NO. Any NO initially present in the sample passes through the converter unchanged, and any NO2 is converted to an approximately equivalent (95%) amount of NO.
The NO is quantitatively converted to NO2 by gas-phase oxidation with molecular ozone produced within the analyzer from air supplied by an external cylinder. During this reaction, approximately 10% of the NO2 molecules are elevated to an electronically excited state, followed by immediate decay to the non-excited state, accompanied by emission of photons. These photons are detected by a photomultiplier tube, which in turn generates a DC current proportional to the concentration of NOx in the sample stream. The current is then amplified and used to drive a front panel display and to provide potentiometric and isolated current outputs.
To minimize system response time, an internal sample-bypass feature provides high-velocity sample flow through the analyzer.
The display blanks when the analyzer is 10% or more over-range. Selecting a less sensitive (higher) range restores the display function.
The case heater assembly of the Model 951C maintains the internal temperature at approximately 50oC (122oF).

2.1 UNPACKING
Carefully examine the shipping carton and contents for signs of damage. Immediately notify the shipping carrier if the carton or its contents are damaged. Retain the carton and packing material until the instrument is operational.
2.2 LOCATION
See drawing 654063 for Outline and Mounting dimensions. Install analyzer in a clean area, free from moisture and excessive vibration, at a stable
temperature within 4 to 40°C. The analyzer should be mounted near the sample source to minimize sample-transport
time. A temperature control system maintains the internal temperature of analyzer at 50°C
(122°F) to ensure proper operation over an ambient temperature range of 4°C to 40°C (40°F to 110°F). Temperatures outside these limits necessitate use of special temperature-controlling equipment or environmental protection. Also, the ambient temperature should not change at a rate exceeding 10°C/hr.
The cylinders of air and span gas should be located in an area of constant ambient temperature (±10°C).
2.3 VOLTAGE REQUIREMENTS
WARNING: ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD

A
(U.S.P. B
REATHING GRADE
)
This is used as both (a) an oxygen source for generation of the ozone required for the chemiluminescence reaction, and (b) a standard gas for zero calibration (nitrogen can also be used). Gas for each purpose must be supplied from a separate cylinder due to different pressure requirements at ozonator and zero inlets.
PAN GAS
S
This is a standard gas of accurately known composition, used to set an upscale calibration point. The usual span gas is NO or NO2 in a background of nitrogen.
WARNING: HIGH PRESSURE GAS CYLINDERS
This instrument requires periodic calibration with a known standard gas. See Sections 2.5 and 3.3. See also General Precautions for Handling and Storing High Pressure Gas Cylinders, in the rear of this manual.
Note For maximum calibration accuracy, the concentration of NO in the span gas
should be similar 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.

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. Install the gas cylinders in an area of relatively constant ambient temperature.
2.6 SAMPLE REQUIREMENTS
The sample must be clean and dry before entering the analyzer. In general, before admission to the analyzer, the sample should be filtered to eliminate particles larger than two microns and have a dew point below 90°F (32°C). The factory can provide technical assistance if desired.
Proper supply pressure for sample, zero and span gases for the Model 951C is 20 psig (138 kPa).
2.7 GAS CONNECTIONS
WARNING: TOXIC AND OXIDIZING GAS HAZARDS
This instrument generates ozone which is toxic by inhalation and is a strong irritant to throat and lungs. Ozone is also a strong oxidizing agent. Its presence is detected by a characteristic pungent odor.
The instrument exhaust contains both ozone and nitrogen dioxide, both toxic by inhalation, and may contain other constituents of the sample gas which may be toxic. Such gases include various oxides of nitrogen, unburned hydrocarbons, carbon monoxide and other products of combustion reactions. Carbon monoxide is highly toxic and can cause headache, nausea, loss of consciousness, and death.
Avoid inhalation of the ozone produced within the analyzer and avoid inhalation of the sample and exhaust products transported within the analyzer. Avoid inhalation of the combined exhaust products at the exhaust fitting.
Keep all tube fittings tight to avoid leaks. See Section 2.8 for Leak Test Procedure.
Connect rear exhaust outlet to outside vent by a 1/4 inch (6.3 mm) or larger stainless steel or Teflon line. Check vent line and connections for leakage.
1. Remove plugs and caps from all inlet and outlet fittings. (See Figure 2-4.)
2. Connect EXHAUST outlet to external vent via tubing with O.D. of 1/4-inch (6.3 mm) or larger. Use only stainless steel or Teflon tubing.
3. Connect external lines from ozonator air and sample sources to corresponding rear panel inlet ports. For sample line, stainless steel tubing is recommended.

4. Adjust regulator on ozonator air cylinder for output pressure of 20 to 25 psig (138 to 172 kPa). At least 20 psig should be present at rear of analyzer.
5. Supply sample gas to rear panel SAMPLE inlet at appropriate pressure: 20 psig (138 kPa). The nominal input pressure is 20 psig (138 kPa).
2.8 LEAK TEST
The following test is designed for sample pressure up to 5 psig (35 kPa).
1. Supply air or inert gas such as nitrogen at 5 psig (35 kPa) to analyzer sample and air input fittings.
2. Seal off analyzer exhaust fitting with a tube cap.
3. Use a suitable test liquid such as SNOOP (P/N 837801) to detect leaks. Cover all fittings, seals, or possible leak sources.
4. Check for bubbling or foaming which indicates leakage, and repair as required. Any leakage must be corrected before introduction of sample and/or application of electrical power.

3.2 STARTUP PROCEDURE
The following are detailed instructions on startup and calibration.
1. Supply electrical power to the analyzer. The analyzer will require approximately two hours for temperature equilibration before calibration.
2. On Signal Board, Figure 3-2, set PPM RANGE Switch (S1) to 250 ppm.
3. Establish correct pressure for air by the following:
a. Adjust OZONE Pressure Regulator so that OZONE Pressure Gauge
indicates 20 to 25 psig (138 to 172 kPa).
b. To establish correct pressure of zero gas, supply zero gas to rear panel
SAMPLE inlet. Note reading on internal SAMPLE Pressure Gauge. It should be the same as the nominal 4 psig (28 kPa) SAMPLE pressure indicated on the internal SAMPLE pressure gauge. This should remain constant when the analyzer input SAMPLE is switched from calibration gas standard to a zero gas standard. This may be assur ed by setting the delivery from the SAMPLE and the zero gas cylinder of span gas cylinder to the same value of delivery pressure, nominally 20 psig (138 kPa). If not, adjust output pressure regulator on zero gas cylinder as required.
4. Establish correct pressure of sample gas by the following:
a. Supply sample gas to rear panel SAMPLE inlet. b. Adjust SAMPLE Backpressure Regulator so internal SAMPLE Pressure
Gauge indicates the value appropriate to the desired operating range.
Note Inability to obtain a flow of one liter per minute at the EXHAUST outlet usually
indicates insufficient sample supply pressure at the SAMPLE inlet. Use a 2400 cc flowmeter (i.e., Brooks P/N 1350) at the EXHAUST outlet to measure flow.
5. Establish correct flow of upscale standard gas by the following:
a. Supply upscale standard gas to rear panel SAMPLE inlet. b. Note reading on internal SAMPLE Pressure Gauge. It should be the same
as in Step 3b.
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.

3.5 CONVERTER TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURE
Once the appropriate high voltage and electronic gain have been selected such that the named calibration gas value is indicated by the Model 951C, the instrument is ready for adjustment of the converter temperature.
The vitreous carbon converter used in this analyzer has a low surface area which gradually increases during high temperature operation of the converter material.
Initially, the temperature of the peak of the converter efficiency starts at a relatively high value because significant heat must be supplied to make the converter active enough to reduce the input nitrogen dioxide to nitric oxide at the required 95% level. During the operation of the analyzer, the temperature of the peak will fall as the surface area of the converter is increased and less external energy is required to cause adequate conversion.
In extreme cases, where converter re-profiling has not been conducted, the converter is so active that it not only reduces nitrogen dioxide to nitric oxide, but it reduces the nitric oxide produced to nitrogen, which is not detected by the chemiluminescence reaction. The remedy in this case is to adjust the converter temperature to a lower value to improve the converter efficiency.
It is important that the converter temperature be periodically profiled to assure that it is running at its peak efficiency. An interval of one week is recommended. The nominal range of operational temperatures for the converter is 275°C to 400°C (527°F to 750°F). The operating temperature of the converter may be conveniently checked by momentarily depressing switch S4 on the Power Supply Board while monitoring the resistance across terminals TP1 and TP2. Table 3-1 allows for conversion of the observed resistance to the operating temperature for the converter.
Follow this procedure to optimize the operating temperature of the converter:
1. Power instrument and allow it to stabilize at operating temperature (one to two hours). Measure the operating temperature of the converter by the technique described above. Note the value for future reference.
2. Admit a calibration gas of known (NO2) concentration into the analyzer and note the concentration value determined when the full response has been achieved.
3. Refer to Figure 3-3. Turn the converter temperature adjust potentiometer R9, on the Power Supply Board one turn counterclockwise from the setting established at the factory, and allow fifteen minutes for operation at the new lower temperature setpoint. Recheck the response and note the value for later use.
4. Increase the temperature of the converter by rotating the converter temperature adjust potentiometer, R9, one quarter turn clockwise, wait fifteen minutes for thermal equilibrium and then re-measure the NO2 calibration gas value. Note its value. Repeat this procedure of one quarter turn adjustments of the potentiometer, waiting for thermal stability and determination of the calibration gas value until either a 95% value is obtained or the final one quarter turn adjustment gives an efficiency increase of less than one percent.

5. Decrease the temperature of converter operation by rotating the converter temperature adjust potentiometer one eighth of a turn counterclockwise. This places the converter at a temperature suitable for low ammonia interference and efficient NO2 conversion.

3.6 MEASUREMENT OF CONVERTER EFFICIENCY
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 above procedure optimizes the operating temperature of the converter. It also serves as an efficiency check if the concentration of NO2 in the calibration gas is documented accurate relative to National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Reference Materials. If the concentration of the nitrogen dioxide calibration gas is not known accurately, this procedure still serves to adequately provide the correct converter operating temperature.
If the only available known standard is the nitric oxide calibration standard, the following procedure may be performed. This procedure checks converter efficiency through the utilization of gas-phase oxidation of nitric oxide into nitrogen dioxide over a range of nitrogen dioxide concentrations. This technique is abstracted and adapted from 40 CFR, Pt. 60, App. A, Method 20, Paragraph 5.6.
1. Select the appropriate instrument range.
2. Admit a nitric oxide in nitrogen NIST traceable calibration gas of a value between 45% and 55% of the instrument range selected to a clean, evacuated, leak tight Tedlar bag. Dilute this gas approximately 1:1 with a 20.9% oxygen, purified air.
3. Immediately attach the bag outlet to the input of the pump supplying pressurized gas to the analyzer. It is important to use a sample delivery pump which does not consume nitrogen dioxide as it delivers sample to the analyzer. Losses of nitrogen dioxide in the pump will be reported as converter inefficiency.
4. Operate the analyzer and continue to sample the diluted nitric oxide sample for a period of at least thirty minutes. If the nitrogen dioxide to nitric oxide conversion is at the 100% level, the instrument response will be stable at the highest value noted.
5. If the response at the end of the thirty minute period decreases more than 2.0 percent of the highest peak value observed, the system is not acceptable and corrections must be made before repeating the check. If it is determined that observed subnormal conversion efficiencies are real, and not due to errors introduced by nitrogen dioxide consumption in the sample pump or other parts of the sample handling system, verify that the converter is peaked at the optimum temperature before replacing with a new converter.

3.7 RECOMMENDED CALIBRATION FREQUENCY
After initial startup or startup following a shutdown, the analyzer requires about two hours 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 8 hours. This practice should continue until experience indicates that some other interval is more appropriate.

4.1 NITRIC 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 NO2 molecules thus produced are initially in an electronically excited state (NO2*). These revert immediately to the ground state, with emission of photons (essentially red light).
The reactions involved are:
NO + O3 → NO2* + O NO2* → NO2 + Red Light
As NO and O3 mix in the reaction chamber, the intensity of the emitted red light is proportional to the concentration of NO.
(Any NO2 initially present in the sample is reduced to NO by a heated bed of vitreous carbon through which the sample is passed before being routed to the reaction chamber.)
The intensity of the emitted red light is measured by a photomultiplier tube (PMT), which produces a current of approximately 3 X 10-9 amperes per part-per-million of NO in the reaction chamber.
4.2 ANALYZER FLOW SYSTEM
The analyzer flow system is shown in drawing 654090. Its basic function is to deliver regulated flows of sample, calibration gas, or zero gas and ozonized air to the reaction chamber. The discharge from the reaction chamber flows from the analyzer via the EXHAUST outlet.

side, where gas is supplied to the calibrated, flow-limiting sam ple capilla ry. The regu lator is adjusted for appropriate reading on the internal SAMPLE Pressure Gauge. For operation at NO and NO2 levels below 250 ppm, correct setting on the SAMPLE Pressure Gauge is 4 psig (28 kPa). This results in a flow of approximately 60 to 80 cc/min to the reaction chamber.
Excess sample is discharged with the effluent from the reaction chamber via the EXHAUST outlet. Bypass flow is set by the restrictor at 1 L/min (nominal) to ensure proper functioning of the SAMPLE Pressure Regulator and rapid system response. Excessive changes, on the order of 5 psig (35 kPa), in the pressure of the sample or standard gas will affect the bypass flow rate and can affect accuracy.
4.2.2 O
ZONE GENERATION
Suitably pressurized air from an external cylinder is supplied to the rear panel AIR inlet. The proper pressure setting is 20 to 25 psig (138 to 172 kPa). W ithin the ozone generator, a portion of the oxygen in the air is converted to ozone by exposure to an ultraviolet lamp. The reaction is:

3
From the generator, the ozonized air flows into the reaction chamber for use in the chemiluminescence reaction.
4.3 SIGNAL PROCESSING ELECTRONICS SYSTEM
A block diagram of the signal-processing electronics is shown in Figure 4-1. Basic functions of these electronics are acceptance of PMT output and conversion of it to potentiometric and isolated current outputs, and providing a visual display of the concentration of the NOx in the sample stream. All functions except the high-voltage source and the voltage-to-current converter are contained on the Signal Control PC Board, 654050. The two exceptions are located on the Power Supply Board, 654059.
The PMT drives a high input impedance amplifier which produces a voltage between 0 and approximately 5 volts. The front panel Zero Control injects a small current into the PMT amplifier to null any current from the PMT which is not related to the concentration of NOx in the sample stream.
The PMT amplifier drives a programmable gain amplifier (PGA). The gain of the PGA is controlled by the Range Switch.
The PGA drives the Span Amplifier. The gain of this amplifier is controlled by the front panel Span Control. The output of the Span Amplifier is a voltage which is properly scaled to represent the concentration of NOx in the sample stream.
The Span Amplifier drives the front panel Display and associated electronics, and the isolated current output. It also provides the potentiometric output.

4.4 ANALYZER THERMAL SYSTEM
The Analyzer Thermal System is shown in Figure 4-2. Its basic function is to provide a stable thermal environment for the PMT.
The temperature of the PMT must be held within a half-degree band at approximately 18°C if it is to produce a useful signal for low concentrations of NOx. This is accomplished by means of a solid-state cooler which houses the PMT. The heat which is radiated from the cooler is carried away by the Cooler Fan.
The solid-state cooler must work against a relatively constant load in order to maintain the temperature of the PMT. This load is produced by a case heater and exhaust fan which control the temperature inside the case within a one-degree band (approximately 50°C for ambient temperatures from 4°C to 40°C).
The electronics which support the Analyzer Thermal System and the NO2-to-NO Converter are contained on the Power Supply Board.

WARNING: ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
Servicing requires access to live parts which can cause death or serious injury. Refer servicing to qualified personnel.
WARNING: INTERNAL ULTRAVIOLET LIGHT HAZARD
Ultraviolet light from the ozone generator can cause permanent eye damage. Do not look directly at the ultraviolet source in ozone generator. Use of ultraviolet filtering glasses is recommended.
Note The photomultiplier tube must not be exposed to ambient light. If the
photomultiplier tube is exposed to light while the power is on, either through a loose fitting on the reaction chamber or any other leak, it will be destroyed. If exposed to ambient light with the power off, the tube will be noisy for some period of time. Unless appropriate precautions are observed, light can strike the tube upon removal of fittings from the reaction chamber.
5.1 SYSTEM CHECKS AND ADJUSTMENTS
The following procedures may be used to determine the cause of unsatisfactory instrument performance, or to make adjustments following replacement of components. If a recorder is available, use it for convenience and maximum accuracy in the various tests.
5.1.1 D
If a recorder is used, and has been properly zeroed, it should agree with the display reading. If not, obtain agreement by adjustment of R20 on the Signal/Control Board (see Figures 3-1, 3-2). If agreement cannot be reached, check the recorder. If the recorder is functioning properly, replace the amplifier board.

5.1.2 O
VERALL SENSITIVITY
Principal factors that determine overall sensitivity of the analyzer are the following: (a) sample flow rate to the reaction chamber, (b) sensitivity of the photomultiplier tube (PMT), and (c) PMT high voltage. If specified fullscale readings are unobtainable by adjustment of the SPAN Control, sensitivity is subnormal. The cause of reduced sensitivity may be in either the flow system (See Section 5.2) or the electronic circuitry (See Section 5.6).
If either the High Voltage Board or the Phototube/Reaction Chamber Assembly has been replaced, a readjustment of the high voltage will probably be required to obtain the correct overall sensitivity. Adjust R30 on the Power Supply Board (see Figures 3-1, 3-3) clockwise to increase (negative) the photomultiplier high voltage and sensitivity, or counterclockwise to decrease (negative) the voltage and sensitivity. The adjustment range is about -650 V to
-2100 V for the regulated DC voltage applied to the photomultiplier tube. Nominal setting is
-1100 volts. However, the voltage should be adjusted as required for overall system sensitivity.
5.1.3 O
ZONE OUTPUT
To check for adequate output from the ozone lamp, a convenient technique is to calibrate the analyzer on a high level NO standard such as 250 ppm NO at the nominal 4.0 psi internal sample pressure setpoint, and note the reading. The sample pressure setpoint is then sequentially set to pressures of 3.0, 2.0, and 1.0 psi after a stable span gas reading has obtained at the higher pressure setpoint. The span gas value will change as the pressure is changed. The difference in span gas value between two successive sample pressure levels should be approximately the same for the 4.0 to 3.0, 3.0 to 2.0, and 2.0 to
1.0 pressure steps. If the size of the span gas value difference increases as the sample pressure is lowered,
the analyzer output is limited by the amount of ozone production from the lamp and the two additional checks should be made. First, verify that the sample flow (not including bypass) does not exceed the nominal 60 to 80 cc/min, at 4.0 psi internal sample pressure. Second, substitute another lamp to see if the ozone output is increased.
If no other ozone lamp is available, the analyzer sample input pressure may be reduced to the pressure where the ozone limitation is not present. If the lamp output is low and the sample pressure is reduced to restore operation to the condition where ozone limitation is not occurring, some degradation in analyzer response time characteristics may occur.
WARNING: TOXIC GAS HAZARD
Use extreme caution in troubleshooting the ozone generator. Ozone is toxic.

ACKGROUND CURRENT
With zero air supplied to rear panel SAMPLE inlet, excessive background current is evidenced by the inability to obtain zero display reading with adjustment of the ZERO Control. If this cannot be accomplished, 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 on analyzer power. Verify that ZERO Control and amplifier are functioning properly. Then, check for excessive photomultiplier dark current and/or contamination of the reaction chamber or sample flow system as follows:
5.1.5 E
XCESSIVE PHOTOMULTIPLIER DARK CURRENT
To check, shut off all flow to the ozone generator. Turn off ozone generator. Supply cylinder air to rear panel SAMPLE inlet. Note response on display or recorder. If back-ground is still excessive, possible causes are:

defective photomultiplier tube
electrical leakage in socket assembly

5.2 SERVICING FLOW SYSTEM
To facilitate servicing and testing, the Model 951C has front drawer access. Drawing 654090 shows flow system details, including fittings, thread specifications and
connecting tubing.
5.2.1 C
LEANING SAMPLE CAPILLARY
If clogging of sample capillary is suspected, measure flow rate as described below.
1. T urn off instrument power and shut off all gases.
2. Refer to Figures 6-1 and 6-3. Cover and shade the fittings on the reaction chamber with a dark cloth or other light-shielding material. Remove the fitting associated with the sample capillary and place a cap over 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. If high voltage is on during exposure, the photomultiplier tube will be destroyed.
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. Adjust internal SAMPLE Pressure Regulator to normal operating setting of 4 psig (28 kPa). Verify that flowmeter indicates appropriate flow of 60 to 80 cc/min.
5. If flow is correct, restore analyzer to normal operation.
6. If flow is low, the capillary requires cleaning or replacement (Proceed with the step 5 below).
7. Clean capillary with denatured alcohol, and purge with dry nitrogen or air for one minute. Reconnect capillary.
8. W ith the photomultiplier still covered, slowly insert the free end of the capillary into the corresponding fitting on the reaction chamber. Push the capillary in until it touches bottom against the internal fitting. Then tighten fitting 1/4 turn past finger tight.
Note: Do not overtighten capillary internal fitting, as overtightened fittings may restrict
the sample flow.

ZONE RESTRICTOR FITTING
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 fittings on the reaction chamber, disconnect the ozone tube 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 the OZONE Pressure Gauge indicates normal operating pressure of 20 to 25 psig (138 to 172 kPa). Verify that test flowmeter indicates an appropriate flow of 500 to 600 cc/min for 20 psig.
Subnormal flow indicates clogging in the flow path that supplies air to the ozone generator. This path contains a Restrictor (P/N 655519), consisting of a metal fitting with internal fritted (metal membrane) restrictor to reduce pressure. The fitting is upstream from the inlet port of the ozone generator. If the internal restrictor becomes plugged, the assembly (P/N 655519) must be replaced as it cannot normally be cleaned satisfactorily.

8. Replace the assembly by reversing the order of steps 1 through 7.
5.3.2 C
LEANING REACTION CHAMBER
Note: Photomultiplier tube will be permanently damaged if exposed to ambient light
while powered with high voltage. Photomultiplier tube will develop temporary electronic noise if exposed to ambient light 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 previous 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 frequent 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.

5.3.3 P
HOTOMULTIPLIER TUBE AND HOUSING
The photomultiplier tube operates at high DC voltages (nominal setting is -1100 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, observed as abnormally high dark current. Water vapor or condensed moisture in contact with the photomultiplier tube may result in an abnormally high noise level during instrument readout on zero air or upscale standard gas.
The Photomultiplier Tube/Reaction Chamber Assembly incorporates several features for exclusion of humidity and moisture. The photomultiplier socket assembly is potted with high impedance silicone rubber 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.
