GETTING STARTED
This Quickstart Guide is designed to get you set up and operating your Teledyne Analytical
Instruments Analyzer quickly. It shortcuts the details so you can install and use your new
analyzer with a minimum of fuss. This Quickstart Guide should be used in conjunction with the
Instruction Manual that shipped with your instrument. Only necessary features to get you
operational are discussed in this guide. Many of the advanced features of this analyzer are not
described here so you should refer to the Instruction Manual to get the most from your analyzer
Front Panel (Operator Interface)
Take a minute to familiarize yourself with the analyzer’s interface. The standard 3000TAEU is housed in a rugged metal case with all controls and displays accessible from the front
panel. The operator interface consists of thirteen buttons for operating the analyzer, a digital
meter, an alphanumeric display, and a window for viewing the sample flowmeter.

Function Keys:
Six touch-sensitive membrane switches are used to change the specific function performed by
the analyzer:
• Analyze Perform analysis for oxygen content of a sample gas.
• System Perform system-related tasks (described in detail in chapter 4, Operation.).
• Span Span calibrate the analyzer.
• Zero Zero calibrate the analyzer.
• Alarms Set the alarm setpoints and attributes.
• Range Set up the 3 user definable ranges for the instrument.
Data Entry Keys:
Six touch-sensitive membrane switches are used to input data to the instrument via the
alphanumeric VFD display:
• Left & Right Arrows Select between functions currently displayed on the VFD
screen.
• Up & Down Arrows Increment or decrement values of functions currently displayed.
• Enter Advances VFD display to the next screen in a series or returns to the Analyze
screen if none remain.
• Escape Backs VFD display to the previous screen in a series or returns to the Analyze
screen if none remain.
Digital Meter Display:
The meter display is a Light Emitting Diode (LED) device that produces large, bright, 7-segment
numbers that are legible in any lighting. It produces a continuous readout from 0-10,000 ppm and
then switches to a continuous percent readout from 1-25%.
Alphanumeric Interface Screen
The VFD screen displays values, options, and messages for immediate feedback.
Set Flow:
Needle valve used to adjust flow of gas sample
Flowmeter:
Monitors the flow of gas past the sensor. Readout is 0.2 to 2.4 SLPM of nitrogen.
Standby Button:
The Standby turns off the display and outputs, but circuitry is still operating.
Access Door:
For access to the Micro-fuel Cell,the front panel swings open when the latch in the upper right
corner of the panel is pressed all the way in.

Rear Panel (Equipment Interface)
At the rear panel you make the gas and electrical
connections to the instrument.
• Power Connection: Universal AC power
source.
• Gas Inlet and Outlet: One inlet and one
exhaust out.
• RS-232 Port : Serial digital concentration
signal output and control input.
• Equipment Interface Connector:
Interconnections for analyzer functions including:
• Analog Outputs: 0–1 VDC oxygen concentration plus 0-1 VDC range ID, and
isolated 4–20 mA DC oxygen concentration plus 4-20 mA DC range ID.
• Alarm Connections: 2 concentration alarms and 1 system alarm.
• Remote Probe: Used in the 3000TA -EU for controlling external solenoid valves
only.
• Remote Span/Zero: Digital inputs allow external control of analyzer calibration.
• Calibration Contact : To notify external equipment that instrument is being
calibrated and readings are not monitoring sample.
• Range ID Contacts: Four separate, dedicated, range relay contacts. Low,
Medium, High, Cal.
• Network I/O: Serial digital communications for local network access. For future
expansion. Not implemented at this printing.

SETUP AND INSTALL
Mount the Analyzer
The Model 3000TA -EU is for indoor use in a general purpose area. It is NOT for hazardous
environments of any type. It is designed for flush panel mounting. Use the four mounting holes—
one in each corner of the rigid frame to panel mount the instrument.
Make Gas Connections
Note: Do not remove plastic caps on VCR fittings, unless you are ready to make
connections.
The analyzer is equipped with 1/4 inch tube fittings, and 6 mm adapters are supplied for
metric system installations.
1. Connect your sample gas to the SAMPLE IN port.
2. Connect a vent line to EXHAUST OUT port.
3. Calibration gases should be tee'd into the sample inlet with appropriate valves.
4. Regulate the sample gas pressure between 2 and 50 psig sufficient to keep the front
panel flowmeter reading in an acceptable range (0.5 to 2.0 SLPM). For nonpressurized sample or very low pressure, (less than 2 psig) vacuum service plumbing
is recommended.
5. If greater sample flow is required for improved response time, install a bypass in the
sampling system upstream of the analyzer input.
6. For optional vacuum application where the sample pressure is at atmospheric or very
low pressure, the instrument should be fitted with the vacuum service option. This
option locates the flow control valve on the exhaust side of the Micro-fuel Cell.
Note: Exhaust connections must be consistent with the hazard level of the constituent
gases. Check Local, State, and Federal laws, and ensure that the exhaust
stream vents to an appropriately controlled area, if required.
