3.Supply Voltage
◆Verify correct polarity for 24 V DC - operation !
◆This product is a Safety Class 1 instrument (provided with a protective earth terminal).
To prevent shock hazard, the instrument chassis and cabinet must be connected to an
electrical ground. The instrument must be connected to the AC power supply mains through
a three-conductor power cable , with the third wire firmly connected to an electrical ground
(safety ground) at the po wer outlet. If the instrument is to be energized via an external power
supply, that goes for the po wer supply too.
Any interruption of the protective (grounding) conductor or disconnection of the protectiv e
earth terminal will cause a potential shock hazard that could result in personal injury.
Deliberate disconnection is inadmissible / prohibited !
◆Use only power supply VSE 2000 or equivalent po wer supplys to be in agreement with the
CE - conformity.
◆In case of exchanging fuses the customer has to be certain that fuses of specified type and
rated current are used. It is prohibited to use repaired fuses or def ective fuse holders or to
short-circuit fuse carriers (fire hazard).
◆Always disconnect power, discharge circuits and remov e external voltage sources before
troubleshooting, repair or replacement of any component !
Any work inside the instrument without switching off the power must be
performed by a specialist, who is familiar with the related danger, only !
4.Connection Cables
◆Use only from our factory optional delivered cables or equivalent shielded cables to be in
agreement with the CE - conformity.
The customer has to guarantee, that the shield is be connected bothsided.
◆By using of optional delivering terminal strip adapters the analyzer is not be in agreement
with the CE - conformity. In this case CE - conformity is to be declared by customer as
“manufacturer of system”.

SAFETY SUMMARY
ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE
5.Electrostatic Discharge
The electronic parts of the analyzer can be irreparably damaged if exposed to electrostatic
discharge (ESD).
The instrument is ESD protected when the covers have been secured and safety precautions
observed. When the housing is open, the internal components are not ESD protected anymore.
Although the electronic parts are reasonably safe to handle, you should be aw are of the following
considerations:
Best ESD example is when you walk ed across a carpet and then touched an electrically grounded
metal doorknob. The tiny spark which has jumped is the result of electrostatic discharge (ESD).
You prevent ESD by doing the following:
Remove the charge from your body before opening the housing and maintain during work with
opened housing, that no electrostatic charge can be built up.
Ideally you are opening the housing and working at an ESD - protecting workstation.
Here you can wear a wrist trap.
However, if you do not have such a workstation, be sure to do the following procedure exactly:
Discharge the electric charge from your body. Do this by touching a device that is electrically
grounded (any device that has a three - prong plug is electrically grounded when it is plugged into
a power receptacle).
This should be done several times during the operation with opened housing (especially after
leaving the service site because the movement on a low conducting floors or in the air might cause
additional ESDs).

MEASURING PRINCIPLE
PARAMAGNTIC OXYGEN MEASUREMENT
3.Measuring Principle
Depending on analyzer model different measuring methods will be used.
The installed type of oxygen sensor is to identify at the channel code (see Fig. A.1).
The determination of O2 - concentration is based on the paramagnetic principle (magnetomechanic principle).
T wo nitrogen-filled (N2 is diamagnetic) quartz spheres are arranged in a "dumbbell" configuration
and suspended free to rotate on a thin platinum ribbon in a cell.
A small mirror that reflects a light beam coming from a light source to a photodetector, is mounted
on this ribbon. A strong permanent magnet especially shaped to produce a strong highly inhomogeneous magnetic field inside the analysis cell, is mounted outside the wall.
When oxygen molecules enter the cell, their paramagnetism will cause them to be drawn to wards
the region of greatest magnetic field strength. The O2 - molecules thus ex ert different forces which
produce a torque acting on the sphere arrangement, and the suspended “dumbbell”, along with
the mirror mounted on its suspension ribbon, will be angulary rotated away from the equilibrium
position.
The mirror then will deflect an incident light beam onto the photodetector which itself produces an
electric voltage. The electric signal is amplified and fed back to a conducting coil at the “dumbbell”,
forcing the suspended spheres back to the equilibrium position.
The current required to generate the restoring torque to return the “dumbbell” to its equilibrium
position is a direct measure of the O2 - concentration in the gas mixture.
The complete analysis cell consists of analysis chamber, permanent magnet, processing
electronics, and a temperature sensor . The sensor itself is thermostatted up to approx. 55 °C. For
warming up the measuring gas is conducted via a heat-exchanger.

Fig. 3-2: Structure of electrochemical Oxygen Sensor
The oxygen senor incorporate a lead/gold oxygen cell with a lead anode (1) and a gold cathode
(2), using a specific acid electrolyte. T o avoide moisture losses at the gold electrode a sponge sheet
is inserted on the purged side.
Oxygen molecules diffuse through a non-porous T eflon membrane (4) into the electrochemical cell
and are reduced at the gold-cathode. Water results from this reaction.
On the anode lead oxide is formed which is transferred into the electrolyte. The lead anode is
regenerated continuously and the electrode potential therefore remains unchanged for a long
time.
The rate of diffusion and so the response time (t90) of the sensor is dependent on the thickness
of the Teflon membrane.

PREPARATION
INSTALLATION SITE
5.Preparation
Please check the packing and its contents immediately upon arrival.
If any damage or missing items are found, then we request that you notify the forwarder to
undertake a damage surve y and report the loss or damage to us immediately.
5.1Installation
The analyzer must not operate in explosive atmosphere without supplementary protective
measures !
The installation site for the analyzer has to be dry and remain above freezing point at all times.
The analyzer must be exposed neither to direct sunlight nor to strong sources of heat.
The permissible ambient temperature are between + 5 °C and + 45 °C for paramagnetic
measurement and + 5 °C and + 40 °C for electrochemical measurement.
For outdoor installation, we recommend to install the analyzer in a protectiv e cabinet. At least, the
analyzer has to be protected against rain (e.g., shelter).
The analyzer has to be installed as near as possible to the sample point, in order to av oid low
response time caused by long sample gas lines.
In order to decrease the response time, a sample gas pump with a matching high pumping rate
may be used. Ev entually, the analyzer has to be operated in the bypass mode or b y an ov erflow
valve to prevent too high flow and too high pressure (Fig. 5-1).

PREPARATION
GAS CONDITIONNING (SAMPLE HANDLING)
5.2Gas Conditionning (Sample Handling)
The conditionning of the sample gas is of greatest importance for the successful operation of any
analyzer according to extractiv e method.
Only conditionned gas has to be supplied to the analyzer !
The gas has to fullfil the following conditions:
It must be
❏free of condensable constituents
❏free of dust
❏free of aggressive constituents which are not compatible with the material of the gas
paths.
❏have temperatures and pressures which are within the specifications stated in “Technical
Data” of this manual.
Inflammable or explosive gas mixtures may not be intr oduced into the analyzer
without supplementary protective measures !
When analysing vapours, the dewpoint of the sample gas has to be at least 10 °C below the
ambient temperature in order to avoid the precipitation of condensate in the gas paths .
Suitable gas conditionning hardware may be supplied or recommended for specific analytical
problems and operating conditions.
5.2.1Gas Flow Rate
The gas flow rate should be within the range 0.2 l/min to maxi. 1.5 l/min for electrochemical
measurement and 0.2 l/min to maxi. 1.0 l/min for paramagnetic measurement !
The gas flow rate for paramagnetic measurement is allo wed to maxi. 1 l/min. !

T o insure correct measurement results, zeroing and spanning should be carried out once a week.
Spanning can be performed only after zeroing before .
For the calibration procedure the required test gases hav e to be f ed to the analyz er through the
respective test gas inlets (cf . section 5.3) with a no - back - pressure gas flow rate of about
1 l/min (the same as with sample gas) !
After switching on the analyzer, wait at least approx. 50 minutes for paramagnetic
measurement or approx. 10 minutes for electrochemical measurement before admit
gas to the analyzer !
The gas flow rate for analyz ers with paramagnetic o xygen measurement is aloo wed
to max. 1.0 l/min. !
Note !
For operation with optional, e xternal solenoid valves the solenoid v alves are activ ated automatically by the respective function (via digital outputs).
If the analyzer is in “calibration mode”, a digital status signal “calibration” can given optional (see
Item 10.3).
Zeroing
For zeroing, the analyz er has to be flushed with nitrogen (N2) or adequate zerogas.
Spanning
The span gas concentration should be in a range of 80 % - 110 % of full - scale range !
For low er span gas concentrations the measuring accuracy could be lo wer for sample
gas concentrations, which are higher than the span gas concentration !
Spanning can be done using ambient air as span gas, if the o xygen concentration is

The primary step in the measurement of the concentration of a gas component is the admission
of sample gas to the analyzer.
Analyzer warm-up after switching on takes about 50 minutes f or paramagnetic
measurement or about 10 minutes for electrochemical measurement !
❍Admit sample gas at the gas inlet fitting.
❍Set the gas flow rate to maxi. 1 l/min.
The analyzer must be in the “analysis mode”, i. e. the displa ys must show
Note !
If some other mode has been selected, the analyzer will automatically return to the analysis display
when a period of 60 - 120 seconds has elapsed after the last key actuation or after the last
completion of an operation !
The analyzer will remain at analysis display, until some other mode has been selected.

11.2Switching Off
Before s witching off the analyzer, we recommend first flushing the gas lines for about 5 minutes
with zeroing gas (N2) or adequate conditionned air. The full procedure for shutting down the
analyzer is as follows:
❍Admit zeroing gas at the gas inlet fitting.
❍Set the gas flow rate to allow a ble rate.
After 5 minutes have elapsed:
❍Shut Off the zeroing gas supply.
❍Switch Off the analyzer by disconnecting the voltage supply.
❍Close all gas line fittings immediately.

SERIAL INTERFACE (OPTION)
GENERAL
12.2General
The analyzer is equipped with a serial interface enabling communications with a host computer .
The host computer can call up, prescribe, or alter parameters, as well as initiate analyzer
operations, using standardized protocols. The optional BSI 10 plug in circuit board constitutes the
hardware interface. This may be configured as RS 232 C or RS 485 interface. The RS 485 interface
permits networking several analyzers. Each analyzer may then be addressed using an assignment numerical ID - code.
Communications are always initiated b y the host computer; i.e ., analyzer beha ve passiv ely until
the host computer requests information from them or demands commencement of an action.
Communications use so - called “telegrams” being exchanged between the host computer and
the analyzer(s). Syntax for these telegrams is established in protocols.
T elegrams alwa ys commence with the "$" start character, immediately follow ed by a three - digit
instruction code.
Subsequent elements of telegrams are segregated by the ";" h yphen c haracter .
The final element of all telegrams transmitted must be the “CR” termination character.
Upon receipt of the terminate character, the analyzer attempts to e valuate the current contents
of its input buffer as a valid telegram. If the syntax of the transmitted telegram is correct, the
analyzer will transmit a response telegram to the host computer. This consists of the start
character, an instruction code, requested data, a bloc k - parity byte, and the termination character.
If the syntax of the transmitted telegram was not correct, the analyzer will transmit a status telegram
containing an error message to the host computer. Each ter minate character reception thus
initiates an analyzer response.
12 - 2
90002955(1) OXYNOS® 100 e [4.01] 01.07.96
SERIAL INTERFACE (OPTION)
GENERAL
T o avoid detecting transmission errors, the host computer can insert a message -length parity byte
immediately preceding the terminate character for verification by the analyzer.
The elapsed time between the reception of star t characters and termination characters is not
limited by the analyzer; i.e ., there are no “time - out” periods.
If the host computer transmits any new characters before the analyzer has responded to the
preceding telegram, the analyzer’s input buffer will reject them; i.e., these characters will be
ignored by the analyzer.
The transmission rate may be set between 600 and 4.800 baud.
An echo - mode may also be activ ated.
The analyzer software is configured such as that telegrams ma y be sent to the host computer at
time intervals of 150 ms and greater.

12.3Start Up
The analyzer has been set in our factory to RS 232 C or RS 485 interface via the plugged PCB
SIF 232 or SIF 485 on the PCB BSI 10.
The parameter 232c has also been set to 0 = NO or 1 = YES in the SIP (Serial Interface Parameters)
line.
Interconnection to the interface is via the 9 - pin sock et „Interface“ on the analyzer rear panel
(Fig. 12-2).
This interface requires a shielded cable having at least three internal conductors.

In contrast to RS 232 C operation, simultaneous transmission and reception is not implemented
in this standard. This would not result in damage to the electronics, but could lead to destroy of
data. The analyzer behav es passively in this mode of operation; i.e., it keeps its transceiver set f or
reception whenever it is not transmitting. Since the time periods for transmission and reception are
controlled by protocols, “data collisions” are excluded.

12.3.3Switching ON/OFF Interface Operation
The analyzer may be set to either “on - line” or “off - line” status. This setting may be perf ormed
either from the keypad or via telegram input.
Ke yboard setting:
SIP - parameter On.-L. = 1for on - line status
SIP - parameter On.-L. = 0for off - line status
Telegram setting:
Instruction code 6:sets analyzer on - line status
Instruction code 7:sets analyzer off - line status
If the analyzer is set to off - line status, it will accept only instruction code 6. All other instructions
will be ignored and result in transmission of appropriate status telegrams.
12.3.4Setting Interface Parameters
Agreement of interface parameters between analyzer and host computer is a fundamental
requirement for communication without errors.
The following analyzer parameters are concerned:
❏baud rate:600 / 1.200 / 2.400 / 4.800 bits/s

TELEGRAM SYNTAX
12.4Telegram Syntax
Telegrams are assembled as follows:
12.4.1Start Character ( “$” = Hex 24)
If the start character is missing, this will result in transmission of an appropriate status telegram
by the analyzer.
12.4.2Terminate Character ( “CR” = Hex OD)
If the terminate character is missing, no decoding of the transmitted information will be performed,
and the analyzer will not respond. No response message will be transmitted.
12.4.3Instruction Code
Each instruction is assigned a unique three digit numerical instruction code. If a received
instruction code should be other than three - digits in length or contain non - numerical ASCIIcharacters, the analyzer will transmit an appropriate status telegram. Reception of unassigned
instruction codes will also result in the transmittal of a status telegram.
In the RS 232 C mode of operation, the instruction code immediately follows the start character;
in the RS 485 mode of operation, the start character is followed by a two - digit de vice identification
code, the separator character. “;”, and a three - digit instruction code, in this order.
12.4.4Hyphen Character ( “;” = Hex 3B)
Individual elements of a telegram line are separated by this hyphen character. Missing hyphen
characters can lead to misinterpretations of telegrams, and will result in transmission of an
appropriate status telegram.

NUMERICAL REPRESENTATION / BLOCK PARITY CHECK
12.4.6Numerical Representations
Telegrams may contain integers or real numbers. The formats for these numbers are subject to
the following restrictions.
Integers:- maximum value = 216 - 1
- positive numbers only accepted
- no decimal points allowed
Real:- maximum of 6 digits accepted
- no alphabetic characters (e.g. 2.2E-6) allowed
- analyzer output is 6 - digit real numbers
12.4.7Block Parity Check
The master control computer may insert a message - length parity byte into telegrams. These
invariably consist of tw o characters .
The message - length parity byte is the cumulatively EXCLUSIVE - OR correlation of all pre viously
transmitted characters of the telegram line. Representation is in hexadecimal format. For example,
if the decimal value should be decimal 13, this will be represented by the two characters “OD”, i.e.,
030H and 044H.
The verification procedure may be enabled or disabled at the analyzer (see Section 12.3.4).
