It is only valid in combination with the "Operating Instructions MCS300P" or
"Operating Instructions MCS300P-Ex".
1.2 Responsibility of user
1.2.1 Designated users
This Technical Information is aimed at qualified persons familiar with the MCS300P and
who, based on their device-specific training and knowledge of the device as well as knowledge of the relevant regulations, can assess the tasks given and recognize the dangers
involved.
1.2.2 Special local conditions
Follow all local laws, regulations and company-internal operating directives applicable at
the respective installation location of the equipment.

2.1 Functional principle
Source Chopper Cell Filter wheels with
measuring filters
Detector
Filter wheel with
adjustment standard
MCS300P is a non-dispersive process photometer.
Fig. 1 Beam path
Product Description
● Depending on the device type, the radiation source used is an IR or VIS radiator.
● The measuring beam goes through the sample cell and is specifically absorbed
depending on the sample gas composition.
● Interference and gas filters swiveled into the beam path on filter wheels select the
measurement wavelength.
● The detector receives the successive measurement and reference radiation.
– With the measuring filter swiveled in, the signal depends on the sample gas compo-
sition.
– With the reference filter swiveled in, a concentration-independent signal is gener-
ated.
By computation of both signals, the MCS300P determines the measured variable
"absorption” which is then, to a wide extent, independent from the changes of the optical characteristics of the photometer.
After correction of possible disturbance variables, the determined absorption is converted to the concentration value via the linearization function.
● As an option, a filter wheel with an internal adjustment standard is available which simulates a test with a test medium.

Product Description
2.2 SOPAS ET (PC program)
SOPAS ET can be used to set the MCS300P parameters and provides access to the
MCS300P logbook.
SOPAS ET runs on an external PC connected via the Ethernet interface to the MCS300P
( MCS300P Operating Instructions).
2.2.1 Modbus-TCP
Modbus® is a communication standard for digital controls to connect a »Master« device
with several »Slave« devices. The Modbus protocol defines the communication commands
only but not their electronic transfer; therefore it can be used with different digital interfaces (for MCS300P: Ethernet).
Configuration: → p. 30, § 3.5.3.3
2.2.2 OPC (option)
OPC is a standardized software interface that allows to exchange data between different
applications.
The SICK OPC server (part of SOPAS ET) is required.
System bus: Ethernet.
Configuration: → p. 30, § 3.5.3.3

3.1 SOPAS ET (Description)
SOPAS ET is on the CD-ROM enclosed with the MCS300P.
Operator menus and measured value displays are also available on an external PC via Ethernet for user comfort (with the engineering tool SOPAS ET).
The SICK Open Portal for Applications and Systems (SOPAS) is an engineering tool for communication with analyzers and sensors.
SOPAS is based on the following techniques:
● Device communication via Ethernet (TCP/IP).
● A common engineering tool for the various product lines.
● Universal device description file as the data source for all relevant device data and
parameters required for communication and display.
