SYSTEM OVERVIEWScope
This Instruction Manual supplies details needed to install, startup, operate,
and maintain the OCX 8800. Signal conditioning electronics outputs a digit al
signal representing oxygen (O
information, plus additional details, can be accessed with the 375 Field
communicator or Emerson Process Management AMS softwar e. The optional
local operator interface (LOI) also provides a communications interface with
the electronics.
System Description
The OCX 8800 is designed to measure oxygen and combustible
concentrations in flue gas temperatures up to 2600°F (1427°C). Electrical
connections, power and communications are made through two 3/4 NP T ports
in the flameproof electronics enclosure using fittings and cables provided by
the customer. Cable installation must meet NEC, IEC and/or other applicable
national or local codes for Class I, Zone 1, Group IIB +H2 T3/T6 permanently
mounted equipment. The transmitter is close coupled to the process and
requires minimal sample conditioning requirements.
The equipment measures oxygen percentage by reading the voltage
developed across a heated electrochemical cell, which consists of a small
yttria-stabilized, zirconia disc. Both sides of the disc are coated with porous
metal electrodes. When operated at the proper temperature, the millivolt
output of the cell is given by the following Nernst equation:

3. T is the absolute temperature.
4. C is the cell constant.
5. K is an arithmetic constant.
NOTE
For best results, use clean, dry instrument air (20.95% oxygen) as the
reference air.
When the cell is at operating temperature and there are unequal oxygen
concentrations across the cell, oxygen ions will travel from the high oxygen
partial pressure side to the low oxygen partial pressure side of the cell. The
resulting logarithmic output voltage is approximately 50 mV per decade. The
output is proportional to the inverse logarithm of the oxygen concentration.
Therefore, the output signal increases as the oxygen concentration of the
sample gas decreases. This characteristic enables the OCX 8800 to provide
exceptional sensitivity at low oxygen concentrations.

The OCX 8800 measures net oxygen concentration in the presence of all the
products of combustion, including water vapor. Therefore, it may be
considered an analysis on a "wet" basis. In comparison with older metho ds,
such as the portable apparatus, which provides an analysis on a "dry" gas
basis, the "wet" analysis will, in general, indicate a lower percentage of
oxygen. The difference will be proportional to the water content of the
sampled gas stream.
The OCX 8800 combustibles sensor is a catalytic sensor consisting of two
Resistance Devices (RTD). One RTD is the reference element covered with
an inert coating. The other RTD element is active, coated with a catalyst. As
the sample gases flow by the sensor, the combustible gases oxidize on the
surface of the active element. The oxidation that occurs produces heat and a
temperature rise in the active element. The temperature differ ence produces
a resistance relationship between the two elements that is directly
proportional to the concentration of combustibles in the sample gases.
The catalyst is specifically designed to detect carbon monoxide (CO), but the
sensor responds to other combustible gases. The sensor is calibrated using
CO, thus the output should be expressed in terms of CO. However, since the
sensor detects other combustible gases, the output cannot just be labeled
CO. The response of the sensor to other combustible gases gives an output
that is equivalent to the sensor detecting CO.
The term COe is used in this manual to describe the sensor output. This term
indicates that the sensor is calibrated in terms of CO, and that the sensor
output is equivalent to CO but not specific to CO.
Dilution air is provided to the COe sensor to ensure there is adequate oxygen
to fully oxidize any combustible gases regardless of the concentration of
oxygen in the process.
System Configuration
Transmitters are available in four lengths, giving the user the flexibility to use
a penetration appropriate to the size of the stack or duct. The length optio ns
are 18 in. (457 mm), 3 ft (0.91 m), 6 ft (1.83 m), or 9 ft (2.7 m). Probes are
available in three material options, 316L stainless steel, Inconel 600, and
ceramic to accommodate higher temperatures.
The electronics are contained in a separate housing from the sensors. When
the transmitter is configured with the integral electronics option the electronics
and sensor housings are mounted as a unit at the stack mounting flange.
When the transmitter is configured with the remote electronics option the
electronics are contained in a separate housing from the sensors. The
electronics housing may be mounted up to 150 feet from the sensor housing.
The electronics control both sensor temperatures and provide output signals
in one of two ways:
1. Individual 4-20 ma isolated outputs that are proportional to the
measured oxygen and combustibles co ncentrations. The oxygen ou tput
also contains HART communication.
2. Single FOUNDATION fieldbus output.

combustible levels encoded in a digital format. This infor mation can
be accessed through the following:
•Model 375 Field Communicator - The handheld field
communicator requires Device Description (DD) software specific
to the OCX 8800. The DD software will be supplied with many
Model 375 units, but can also be programmed into existing units
at most Emerson Process Management service offices. Refer to
Section 6, Field Communicator, for additional information.
•Personal Computer (PC) - The use of a personal computer
requires AMS software available from Emerson Process
Management.
•Selected Distributed Control Systems - The use of distributed
control systems requires input/output (I/O) hardware and AMS
software which permit HART or FOUNDATION fieldbus
communications.

System Operation
Figure 1-2 shows the relationship between the components of the OCX 8800.
The sensors and the electronics are contained in separate housings. The
sensor housing and probe mounts to a duct or process wall so that the prob e
protrudes into the flue gas stream. An air powered eductor continuously pulls
samples of the process flue gas through the probe to a chamber in front of the
sensor housing where the sample passes the O
the COe sensor. Dilution air is prov ided to the COe sensor and reference air
to the O
sensor. After the gas sample flows past the O2 sensor and through
2
the COe sensor, it is drawn through the eductor where it mixes with the
eductor air and exits through exhaust back into the system. The electronics
housing contains the CPU and communication boards which convert the
sensor inputs into digital output signals. The CPU can also initiate and
perform calibrations. Three test gasses and instrument air can be turned on
and off by solenoids. Test gas flow to the sensors is regulated by a flow meter
between the electronics and sensor housings. Instrument air is separated into
eductor air , reference air , and dilutio n air . The instrument air solenoid does not
allow air flow until the heaters are up to temperature. This minimizes the
amount of sampled process flue gas being pulled into cold sensors causing
condensation.

OCX 8800
Handling the OCX 8800
It is important that printed circuit boards and integrated circuits are handled only when
adequate antistatic precautions have been taken to prevent possible equipment damage.
The OCX 8800 is designed for industrial application. Treat each component of the system
with care to avoid physical damage. The probe may contain components made from
ceramics, which are susceptible to shock when mishandled.
System Considerations
Prior to installing your OCX 8800, make sure you have all the components
necessary to make the system installation. Ensure all the components are
properly integrated to make the system functional.
After verifying that you have all the component s, select mounting locations
and determine how each component will be placed in terms of available line
voltage, ambient temperatures, environmental considerations, convenience,
and serviceability. Figure 1-3 shows a typical system wiring for a system with
integral electronics. Figure 1-4 shows a typical system wiring for a system
with remote electronics. Simplified installations for the OCX 8800 are shown
in Figure 1-5 and Figure 1-6. Figure 1-7 shows the dimensions for the
optional sample tube support. Figure 1-8 shows the dimensions for the
optional in-situ filters. Figure 1-9 shows the optional panel mounted blowback.
A source of instrument air is required at the OCX 8800 for reference air,
dilution air, and eductor air. Since the OCX 8800 is equipped with an in-place
calibration feature, provision should be made for connecting test gas tanks to
the OCX 8800 when it is to be calibrated.
NOTE
The electronics module is designed to meet Type 4X and IP66 and the
electronic components are rated to temperatures up to 185°F (85°C).
Retain packaging in which the unit arrived from the factory in case any
components are to be shipped to another site. This packaging has been
designed to protect the product.

INSTALLATION
The OCX88A can be installed in general purpose areas only. Do not install the OCX88A in
hazardous areas.
Selecting Location
1. The location of the OCX 8800 in the stack or flue is most important for
maximum accuracy in the oxygen analyzing process. The probe must
be positioned so the gas it measures is representative of the process.
Best results are normally obtained if the transmitter is positioned near
the center of the duct (40-60% insertion). Longer ducts may require
several transmitters since the oxygen and combustibles can vary due to
stratification. A point too near the wall of the duct or the inside radius of
a bend, may not provide a representative sample because of the very
low flow conditions. The sensing point should be selected so the
process gas temperature falls within the range of probe material used.
Figure 2-1 through Figure 2-5 provide mechanical installation
references. The ambient temperature inside the electronics housing
must not exceed 185°F (85°C).
2. Check the flue or stack for holes and air leakage. The presence of this
condition will substantially affect the accuracy of the oxygen and
combustibles readings. Therefore, either make the necessary repairs or
install the transmitter up stream of any leakage.
3. Ensure the area is clear of internal and external obstructions that will
interfere with installation and maintenan ce access to the unit. Allow
adequate clearance for the removal of the OCX 8800.

OCX 8800
Instruction Manual
IM-106-880, Rev 2.0
September 2009
Do not allow the temperature of the electronics housing to exceed 185°F (85°C) or damage
to the electronics may result.
Whenever a positive stack pressure exists at the installation site, be sure to connect all
pneumatic lines prior to installing the OCX 8800 in the stack or ductwork. Failure to connect
the pneumatic lines can allow the flow of contaminants into the OCX 8800 ports.
Installation
1. Ensure all components are available to install the OCX 8800.
2. The OCX 8800 may be installed intact as it is received.
3. Weld or bolt adapter plate (Figure 2-3) onto the duct.
4. Use the pipe or wall mounting hardware as shown in Figure 2-4 to
mount a remote electronics housing. Choose a location not to exceed
the length of the electronics cable ordered.
5. Ensure the conduits drop vertically from the OCX 8800 and the conduit
is routed below the level of the conduit ports on the housing to form a
drip loop. Drip loops minimize the possibility that moisture will damage
the electronics (Figure 2-5).
6. Where a positive stack pressure exists at the inst allation site, connect all
pneumatic lines prior to installing the OCX 8800 in the stack or
ductwork.

NOTE
If process temperatures will exceed 392°F (200 °C), use anti- s eize compou nd
on stud threads to ease future removal of the OCX 8800.
7. Insert sample and exhaust tubes through the opening in the mounting
flange and bolt the unit to the flange.
Uninsulated stacks or ducts may cause ambient temperatures in the electronics housing to
exceed 185°F (85°C) and damage the electronics.
8. If insulation is removed to access the duct for OCX 8800 mountin g ,
make sure to replace insulation afterward.
