1.2 Introduction

The Rosemount Analytical FPD Module is a Flame Photometric Detector that is factory
engineered to be used in conjunction with either a Model 500 or a Model 700 Gas
Chromatograph. The FPD Module can be used as a single detector, to measure low
levels of sulphur compounds in natural gas, or as a second detector in conjunction with
a Thermal Conductivity Detector (TCD) mounted in the GC where the application
requires full analysis of the natural gas plus sulphur compounds. The FPD Module
typically consists of three major components, flame cell, the photomultiplier tube, and the
electrometer circuit board :

The Flame Cell : Located in the lower enclosure, the flame cell has connections for fuel
gas (Hydrogen), HC Free air, sample injection (process gas plus Nitrogen carrier) and
an exhaust pipe. It is fitted with an RTD to monitor the temperature when running, and
an ignitor to light the fuel gas.

The Photomultiplier Tube : Located in the lower enclosure, the photomultiplier tube is the
sensor that measures the light that is emitted from the flame cell during operation using
an optical filter to allow only sulphur wavelength light to be seen by the photomultiplier
detector. It has one high voltage lead and one signal lead that takes the signal from the
detector to the electrometer. The leads are co-axial type cables.

The Electrometer Board : Located in the upper enclosure, the electrometer board
amplifies and processes the signal data from the detector, and sends it to the CPU
board on the GC (2350A controller on Model 500). It also provides the ignition circuit,
controls the relight function, generates the flame out alarm, and operates the Hydrogen
shut off valve.

1.3 Theory of Operation
NOTE: See also section 1.4, the "Glossary" section of this manual, for definitions

of some of the terminology used in the following explanations.

1.3.1 The Analyser Detector

The detection system in a Rosemount Analytical FPD Module is a Flame Photometric
Detector. This uses the reactions of Sulphur components in a Hydrogen/Air flame as a
source of analytical detection. The source of the FPD‟s signal is derived from the light
produced by an excited molecule created in the flame‟s combustion, that is, a

photochemical process called chemiluminescence.

FIGURE 1.1 : FPD DETECTOR

The analysis begins when a fixed volume of sample is injected into the column by
operation of the sample valve. The sample is moved through the column by the
continuous flow of carrier gas. As successive components elute from the GC column
system, they are burned in the flame cell. An optical filter is fitted between the flame cell
and the photomultiplier tube (PMT). This allows only the wavelength of the emission
band for Sulphurs, 394 nm, to pass through to the PMT.

A thermocouple is fitted to the flame cell to ensure that the flame is present. If the flame
is not detected, the Electrometer shuts off the Hydrogen to the flame cell. It then
supplies a voltage to the igniter, waits 5 seconds and opens the Hydrogen shut off valve.
It then repeats this process for a maximum of ten times until the flame is lit. If it does not
succeed, then the Hydrogen is shut off, an alarm is set on the GC controller and the unit
awaits attention from the operator.

FIGURE 1.2 : ELUTION OF COMPONENTS

1. Carrier gas only at the detector

2. First component begins to elute from the columns and is sensed by the detector.

3. Peak concentration of first component.

4. The second component begins to elute from the columns and is sensed by the
detector.

5. Peak concentration of the second component.

The signal is sent from PMT to the Electrometer to be amplified. The Electrometer also
provides the PMT with the high voltage it requires to operate and the auto relight circuits.

The signal is then sent to the preamplifier board for further amplification. In addition the
preamplifier converts the voltage signal to a 4 to 20 milliamp (mA) current loop for
transmission to the GC controller. The signal is proportional to the concentration of a
component detected in the gas sample. The preamplifier provides four different gain
channels as well as compensation for baseline drift. The signals are sent to the GC
Controller for computation, recording on a printer, or viewing on a PC monitor or LCD.

In the quiescent condition (prior to injecting a sample), the detector is exposed to pure
carrier gas. In this condition, the output from the detector is electrically nulled. The
detector output is set to approximately 1 mV DC. This is measured on the red and black
terminals on the preamplifier board, and adjusted using the potentiometer (R38) on the
electrometer PCB.

1.4 GLOSSARY

Auto Zero: Automatic zeroing of the preamplifier. May be entered into the Controller to

take place at any time during the analysis when either the component is not eluting or
the baseline is steady (not normally used).

Chromatogram: A permanent record of the detector output. A chromatograph is

obtained from a PC interfaced with the detector output through the GC Controller. A
typical chromatogram displays all component peaks, and gain changes. It may be
viewed in colour as it is processed on a PC VGA display. Tick marks recorded on the
chromatogram by the GC Controller indicate where timed events take place.

Component: Any one of several different gases that may appear in a sample mixture.

For example, sample gas usually contains the following components: ethyl mercaptan, t­butyl mercaptan, methyl ethyl sulphide, diethyl sulphide, hydrogen sulphide and carbonyl
sulphide.

Response Factor: Correction factor for each component as determined by the

calibration. It is defined by the equation:

or =

ARFn = Area response factor for component “n” in area per mole percent (%)

HRFn = Height response factor for component “n”

Arean = Area associated with component “n” in calibration gas

Htn = Height associated with component “n” in mole % in calibration gas

Caln = Amount of component “n” in mole % in calibration gas

Retention time : The time in seconds that elapses between the start of analysis ( 0 seconds)
and the sensing of the maximum concentration of each component by the analyser detector.

SECTION 2 : DESCRIPTION OF EQUIPMENT

2.1 General Information

There are three different versions of the FPD module : Model 500 FPD ; Model 700 FPD ;
Model 700 Front Entry FPD. All versions are covered by the same ATEX certificate
Sira06ATEX1174 (see Appendix A). The differences between the versions will be detailed in
later sections of this manual.

FIG 2.1 : 500 FPD FIG 2.2 : 700 FPD FIG 2.3 : 700 FRONT ENTRY

2.2 Gas connections.

For all FPD analysers used to measure low range sulphur components, consideration should
be given to the use of sulphur inert or equivalent tubing for all calibration gas & process gas
connections. All internal process pipework, columns etc are silcosteel by design. If 316 or
other stainless steel piping is used, the sulphur components will adhere to the internal
surface of the pipe, and will continue to do so until such times are the entire internal surface
is coated or “conditioned”. This will result in lower than expected levels of sulphur
components reaching the detector for measurement. If the sulphur concentration in the line
decreases, sulphur components will detach from the wall of the tubing, resulting in an
artificially high reading at the detector. Conditioning may take one week or longer, depending
on the levels of sulphur components and the length of the pipe runs.

2.3 Environmental Considerations

All Rosemount Analytical FPD detectors are sensitive to changes in temperature and
pressure. It is recommended that FPD analysers are located in shelters that have stable
temperature & pressure. The use of positive pressurisation for shelters is not recommended.

Hydrogen 99.995% purity

Hydrocarbon Free Air

Nitrogen 99.995% purity (carrier gas)

Helium 99.995% purity (optional 2nd carrier – application specific)

Calibration gas – application specific

All utility & process gas connections are Swagelok 1/8” double ferrule compression fittings.
Metric conversion kits can be supplied on request.

Supply Voltage : Either 230 Vac or 110Vac.

TYPICAL PRESSURE & FLOW RATE INFORMATION

These are typical values supplied for information only. Actual values are application specific.

A water container is necessary for use with the FPD Module to collect the condensed water
from the FPD vent. It is not recommended to pipe the vent away unless a continuous
downward slope on the pipe and no back pressure or obstruction by water can be
guaranteed.

2.5 Model 500 FPD

The Model 500 FPD module consists of three Exd GUB enclosures mounted on a frame,
plus an Exd solenoid which acts as a Hydrogen shut-off valve. These enclosures contain the
following :

1. Electrometer assembly in GUB 5 enclosure.

2. Flame cell and photometric detector tube in GUB 5 enclosure.

3. Transformer (either 230/110Vac or 110/110Vac) in GUB 4 enclosure.

4. Hydrogen shut-off valve.

FIG 2.4 : ELECTROMETER ASSEMBLY FIG 2.5 : FLAME CELL & FP TUBE

FIG 2.6 : H2 SHUT OFF VALVE FIG 2.7 : TRANSFORMER

The FPD module needs to located as close as possible to a Model 500 GC to minimise the
length of sample tubing between the two parts, and therefore to keep the cycle time as short
as possible.

FIG 2.8 : Model 500 FPD

The tubing required to operate the FPD flame cell is 1/16” OD 0.010” ID. All tubing enters the
GUB enclosure containing the flame cell via a specially designed tubing gland. All internal
fittings are Swagelok double ferrule type compression fittings.

FIG 2.9 : TUBING GLAND

2.6 Model 700 FPD

The Model 700 FPD module consists of four Exd GUB enclosures mounted on a frame, plus
an Exd solenoid valve which acts as a Hydrogen shut-off valve. The Model 700 FPD
requires an additional enclosure to house temperature control equipment that is available
internally on a Model 500 GC, but not on a Model 700 GC. These enclosures contain the
following :

1. Electrometer assembly in GUB 5 enclosure. (see FIG 2.4)

2. Flame cell and photometric detector tube in GUB 5 enclosure. (see FIG 2.5)

3. PID Temperature controller & relay.

4. Transformer (either 230/110Vac or 110/110Vac) in GUB 4 enclosure. (see FIG 2.7)

5. Hydrogen shut-off valve. (see FIG 2.6)

FIG 2.10 : PID TEMPERATURE CONTROLLER & RELAY

The FPD module needs to be located as close as possible to a Model 700 GC to minimise
the length of sample tubing between the two parts, and therefore to keep the cycle time as
short as possible. (see FIG 2.2)

The tubing required to operate the FPD flame cell is 1/16” OD 0.010” ID. All tubing enters the
GUB enclosure containing the flame cell via a specially designed tubing gland. All internal
fittings are Swagelok double ferrule type compression fittings.

2.7 Model 700 FPD Front Entry

The Model 700 FPD Front Entry is comprised of the same components as the standard 700
FPD, but an additional frame has been added to allow all the enclosures to be mounted on
the front of the unit. This allows the unit to be located close to a wall, as no rear access is
required for installation or maintenance. (see FIG 2.3)

2.8 Venting.

All Rosemount Analytical FPD modules have a vent from the flame cell that exits the GUB
enclosure via a proprietary Exd breather/drain/flame arrestor assembly. The exhaust from
the flame cell emits water vapour as a result of burning Hydrogen as fuel. This vapour
condenses in the exhaust tubing outside the GUB enclosure, and can be seen as drips of
water.

The FPD exhaust must be allowed to vent to atmosphere. It must not be subjected to any
back pressure as this will have a detrimental effect on the detector, and may cause the flame
to extinguish.

For information on Model 500 GC & 700 GC venting, please consult the appropriate
hardware manual.

SECTION 3.0 : OPERATION

The Rosemount Analytical FPD module is operated as a separate detector. It is controlled
by, and reports to the GC controller. The flow rates for the utility gases and the carrier gas

are factory set, and are specific to each individual detector. These should only be adjusted

by fully trained and authorised personnel.

The FPD module is identified as detector # 1 on MON software. When used in conjunction
with a TCD detector, the FPD is detector # 1 and the TCD is detector # 2.

For GC controller and MON software operation, please consult the appropriate manual.

For FPD operation, please refer to Appendix C in this manual.

SECTION 4 : MAINTENANCE

4.1 The Rosemount Analytical FPD module is a complex piece of equipment, and needs
to be regularly maintained, preferably as part of a planned maintenance regime.

There are only two important operations that need to be conducted routinely :

1. Replace the Flame Cell and Photometric Tube O-rings (18 – 24 months).

2. Lubricate the stem of the Hydrogen shut-off valve (12 months).

For both of these operations, the GC needs to be shut down, and the appropriate permits
and permissions gained before commencing.

Maintenance operations should only be carried out by trained & authorised personnel.
Failure to maintain the FPD module correctly may cause loss of functionality, and can

result in catastrophic failure.

See APPENDIX B for the correct drawings, and APPENDIX D for the recommended spare
parts list.

SECTION 5.0 : FAULT FINDING

Fault Symptoms

Possible Cure

When monitoring the baseline in MON,
there are no upsets present when the
auto re-light circuit fires.

If no voltage, remove coax connector.

If voltage is present check signal coax.

Check High Voltage is present on coax.

Approx. -600VDC

If voltage now present on board, check
coax cable.

Check BNC coax connectors are tight.

If there is no voltage or the signal cable
is ok, replace electrometer.

If upsets are being seen but there are no
peaks when gas is injected.

Vary the H2/Air ratio

Check the 12v GND wiring to the
electrometer board. The two GND
terminals on connector 2 are not linked
on board. If there are three black wires
ensure that pins 1 & 4 are connected to
the power supply. The other wire is for
the flame cell GND.

Check the tubing going into the bottom of
the flame cell. Loosen fitting and pull
tubing downwards while watching CGM.

If peaks appear then the tubing will need
to be cut.

Check to see if there is flow, from the
metering valve next to the heater block.

Check the sample is getting to the flame
cell

Try replacing the columns one at a time.

Check you are getting carrier through
port 1 with valve 2 on and through port 5
with valve 2 off. If not check the vents on
the Alcon valve for back pressure.

Fault finding on Rosemount Analytical FPD modules should only be carried out by
competent trained personnel.

This section of the manual is not intended to be a definitive list of every fault that can occur
on a FPD module. It only details the most common faults.

Air & H2 flows are set correctly and the
unit fails to stay lit.

Using a digital thermometer connected to
the thermocouple wires coming from the
bottom of the flame-cell, check that the
temperature is 160 ˚C.

Use the OVERRIDE function on the
electrometer when ignitor signal can be
seen on a chromatogram and observe to
see if it stays lit. If the flame stays on, the
problem is with the temperature sensor
circuit.

Check flame out thermocouple wires.

Ensure no insulation is trapped under
screw on terminal strip.

Try pulling the sample tube out when it is
attempting to light in case the tube is
affecting the fuel mixture.

Ensure the ignitor is connected.

Replace the flame cell and try again.

Ensure that the signal wires are
connected to the correct place remember
that the White signal wire should be
connected to the TC+ of the CON5.

Unit give good size sample peaks, then
after a while the peaks are not present
but the relight still gives good peaks.

There might be „soot‟ on the sample tube
going to the flame-cell. Pull tube down
slightly whilst watching the CGM to see if
that cures the fault.

Flame cell temperature cannot be
controlled.

Check the flame cell thermistor.

The resistance is approx 100KΩ at
ambient. Resistance goes down as
temperature goes up.

Flame cell temperature is erratic.

Check that the thermistor has not been
pushed right through the flame cell.

In later models, the flame cell will be
„blanked‟ at end of holes to ensure that
this cannot happen.
Flame cell temperature is erratic.

Check there is enough heat-sink
compound fitted around sensors.

Unable to balance the bridge

Check the BNC connectors for the signal
in and the high voltage. Ensure that they
are tight

Cut off the flame and check the response
from the detector on a live CGM.

Try changing the filter.

Restrictor metering valve seems to be
restricting the output flow completely.

Apply snoop to the two fittings at the
bottom of the metering valve.

Change the metering valve

Peaks are very small or appear to be
back to front

Check N2 flow into union at flame-cell.

This should be no less than 15cc/min.

Noisy baseline and/or very big dips on
the baseline

Check the air supply, should be no lower
that 500psi in the cylinder
