6200T Total Sulfur Analyzer Introduction
1. INTRODUCTION, FEATURES AND OPTIONS
This section provides an overview of the Model 6200T Analyzer, its features and its
options, followed by a description of how this user manual is arranged.
1.1. 6200T Overview
The 6200T consists of two major assemblies: a modified 6400T SO2 analyzer and an
M501TS thermal converter. The Model 6200T is a microprocessor controlled UV
Fluorescence Total Sulfur Analyzer used to measure the total sulfur (TS) concentration
as sulfur dioxide (SO
sample gas to SO
passed to the thermal converter. After conversion, the sample returns to the analyzer and
is drawn through the instrument’s sample chamber where it is exposed to ultraviolet
light, which causes any SO
fluorescence to determine the amount of SO
the analyzer measures the sample without sending it though the converter, hnce only
is meaured. The mode is user switchable from the touch screen display panel.
SO

The 6200T’s exceptional stability is achieved with the use of an optical shutter to
compensate for sensor drift and a reference detector to correct for changes in UV lamp
intensity. Additionally an advanced optical design combined with a special scrubber,
called a "kicker" that removes hydrocarbons (which fluoresces similarly to SO
prevents inaccuracies due to interferents.
Calibration of the instrument is performed in software which stores SO
measurements made gas with when specific, known concentrations of SO
to the analyzer. The microprocessor uses these calibration values along with other
performance parameters such as the sensor offset, UV lamp intensity and the amount of
stray light present and measurements of the temperature and pressure of the sample gas
to compute the final SO
Built-in data acquisition capability, using the analyzer's internal memory, allows the
logging of multiple parameters including averaged or instantaneous concentration
values, calibration data, and operating parameters such as pressure and flow rate. Stored
data are easily retrieved through the serial port or optional Ethernet port via Teledyne’s
AICOM software or from the front panel, allowing operators to perform predictive
diagnostics and enhanced data analysis by tracking parameter trends. Multiple
averaging periods of one minute to 365 days are available for over a period of one year.

1.6. The M501TS – Total Reduced Sulfur Converter
The M501TS oxidizes reduced sulfur compounds to SO2 in a high temperature quartz
oven. A front-panel-mounted, programmable digital temperature controller regulates
power to the heater. Power to the heater is switched by a solid state, zero-crossing relay.
An over/under-temperature alarm contact closure is located on the rear panel. The alarm
set point is adjustable in the temperature controller. The heater temperature is sensed by
a Type S (distinguished from other thermocouple types by its wire colors, red and black;
see table below) (Platinum-Rhodium) thermocouple probe inserted in the bore alongside
the quartz tube. Note: If using a type K or N thermocouple, or if switching to a type S
thermocouple, please refer to Sections 3.4.1.1 and 12.8.4 for proper controller
configuration.
The quartz tube carrying the sample mixture runs through the core of the heater and is
heated by radiation from electrical heating elements at the heater bore surface. See
Figure 1-4 for a layout view of the converter.

3.3.1.4. Current Loop Analog Outputs (Option 41) Setup
If your analyzer had this option installed at the factory, there are no further connections
to be made. The current loop option can be configured for any output range between 0
and 20 mA. Section 5.9.3.5 provides information on calibrating or adjusting these
outputs.
This section provides instructions for setting up the analog outputs for voltage and/or
current output. Figure 3-8 provides installation instructions and illustrates a sample
combination of one current output and two voltage outputs configuration.
For current output install the Current Loop option PCA on J19, on J21 or
on J23 of the motherboard.
For voltage output, install jumpers on J19, J21 and/or J23.
Following Figure 3-8 are instructions for converting current loop analog outputs to
standard 0-to-5 VDC outputs.
CAUTION – AVOID INVALIDATING WARRANTY
Servicing or handling of circuit components requires electrostatic
discharge protection, i.e. ESD grounding straps, mats and containers.
Failure to use ESD protection when working with electronic assemblies will
void the instrument warranty. Refer to Section 13 for more information on
preventing ESD damage.
Teledyne Analytical Instruments 51
Getting Started Model 6200T Total Sulfur Analyzer
Figure 3-8: Current Loop Option Installed on the Motherboard
Converting Current Loop Analog Outputs to Standard Voltage Outputs
To convert an output configured for current loop operation to the standard 0 to 5 VDC
output operation:
1. Turn off power to the analyzer.
2. If a recording device was connected to the output being modified, disconnect it.
3. Remove the top cover
Remove the set screw located in the top, center of the rear panel
Remove the screws fastening the top cover to the unit (four per side).
Lift the cover straight up.
4. Disconnect the current loop option PCA from the appropriate connector on the
motherboard (refer to Figure 3-8).
5. Each connector, J19 and J23, requires two shunts. Place one shunt on the two
left most pins and the second shunt on the two pins next to it (refer to Figure
3-8).
6. Reattach the top case to the analyzer.
The analyzer is now ready to have a voltage-sensing, recording device attached to that
output.
Calibrate the analog output as described in Section 5.9.3
Teledyne Analytical Instruments 52
6200T Total Sulfur Analyzer Getting Started
3.3.1.5. Connecting the Status Outputs
The status outputs report analyzer conditions via optically isolated NPN transistors,
which sink up to 50 mA of DC current. These outputs can be used interface with
devices that accept logic-level digital inputs, such as Programmable Logic Controllers
(PLCs). Each status bit is an open collector output that can withstand up to 40 VDC.
All of the emitters of these transistors are tied together and available at the “D”
connector pin.
ATTENTION
COULD DAMAGE INSTRUMENT AND VOID WARRANTY
Most PLC’s have internal provisions for limiting the current that the input
will draw from an external device. When connecting to a unit that does
not have this feature, an external dropping resistor must be used to limit
the current through the transistor output to less than 50 mA. At 50 mA,
the transistor will drop approximately 1.2V from its collector to emitter.
The status outputs are accessed via a 12-pin connector on the analyzer’s rear panel
labeled STATUS (Figure 3-9). Pin-outs for this connector are presented in Table 3-7.

3.3.1.6. Connecting the Control Inputs
If you wish to use the analyzer to remotely activate the zero and span calibration modes,
several digital control inputs are provided through a 10-pin connector labeled
CONTROL IN on the analyzer’s rear panel.
There are two methods for energizing the control inputs. The internal +5V available
from the pin labeled “+” is the most convenient method. However, if full isolation is
required, an external 5 VDC power supply should be used.

3.3.1.7. Connecting the Concentration Alarm Relay (Option 61)
The concentration alarm option is comprised of four (4) “dry contact” relays on the rear
panel of the instrument. This relay option is different from and in addition to the
“Contact Closures” that come standard on all Teledyne Analytical Instruments
instruments. Each relay has 3 pins: Normally Open (NO), Common (C) and Normally
Closed (NC).
Figure 3-11: Concentration Alarm Relay
Alarm 1 “System OK 2”
Alarm 2 “Conc 1”
Alarm 3 “Conc 2”
Alarm 4 “Range Bit”
“Alarm 1” Relay
Alarm 1, which is “System OK 2” (system OK 1 is the status bit), is in the energized
state when the instrument is “OK” and there are no warnings. If there is a warning
active or if the instrument is put into the “DIAG” mode, Alarm 1 will change states.
This alarm has “reverse logic” meaning that if you put a meter across the Common and
Normally Closed pins on the connector you will find that it is OPEN when the
instrument is OK. This is so that if the instrument should turn off or lose power, it will
change states and you can record this with a data logger or other recording device.
“Alarm 2” Relay & “Alarm 3” Relay
Alarm 2 relay is associated with the “Concentration Alarm 1” set point in the software;
Alarm 3 relay is associated with the “Concentration Alarm 2” set point in the software.

Alarm 2 Relay SO
Alarm 3 Relay SO

Alarm 2 relay will be turned on any time the concentration value exceeds the set-point,
and will return to its normal state when the concentration value returns below the
concentration set-point.
Even though the relay on the rear panel is a NON-Latching alarm and resets when the
concentration goes back below the alarm set point, the warning on the front panel of the
instrument will remain latched until it is cleared. You can clear the warning on the front
panel either manually by pressing the CLR button on the front panel touch-screen or
remotely through the serial port.
The software for this instrument is flexible enough to allow you to configure the alarms
so that you can have two alarm levels for each concentration.

3.3.1.8. Connecting the Communications Interfaces
The T-Series analyzers are equipped with connectors for remote communications
interfaces: Ethernet, USB, RS-232, RS-232 Multidrop and RS-485. In addition to
using the appropriate cables, each type of communication method, must be configured
using the SETUP>COMM menu, Section 6. Although Ethernet is DHCP-enabled by
default, it can also be configured manually (Section 6.5.1) to set up a static IP address,
which is the recommended setting when operating the instrument via Ethernet.
Ethernet Connection
For network or Internet communication with the analyzer, connect an Ethernet cable
from the analyzer’s rear panel Ethernet interface connector to an Ethernet port. Please
refer to Section 6.5 for a description of the default configuration and setup instructions.
Configuration: Section 6.5
manual configuration: Section 6.5.1
automatic configuration (default): Section 6.5.2
USB Connection
For direct communication between the analyzer and a PC, connect a USB cable between
the analyzer and desktop or laptop USB ports, and ensure that their baud rates match
(Section 6.2.2).
Note If this option is installed, the COM2 port cannot be used for anything
other than Multidrop communication.
Configuration: Section 6.2.2
Teledyne Analytical Instruments 57
Getting Started Model 6200T Total Sulfur Analyzer
RS-232 Connection
For RS-232 communications with data terminal equipment (DTE) or with data
communication equipment (DCE) connect either a DB9-female-to-DB9-female cable
(Teledyne Analytical Instruments part number WR000077) or a DB9-female-to-DB25male cable (Option 60A, Section 1.4), as applicable, from the analyzer’s rear panel RS232 port to the device. Adjust the DCE-DTE switch (Figure 3-4) to select DTE or DCE
as appropriate.
Configuration: Sections 5.7 and 6.3
IMPORTANT
RS-232 COM Port Connector Pin-outs

RS-232 Multidrop (Option 62) Connection
When the RS-232 Multidrop option is installed, the instrument designated as last in the
chain must be terminated. This requires installing a shunt between two pins on the
multidrop printed circuit assembly (PCA) inside the instrument. Step-by-step
instructions for installation follow.
Note Because the RS-232 Multidrop option uses both the RS232 and COM2
Teledyne Analytical Instruments 59
Getting Started Model 6200T Total Sulfur Analyzer
DB9 connectors on the analyzer’s rear panel to connect the chain of
instruments, COM2 port is no longer available for separate RS-232 or
RS-485 operation.
ATTENTION
COULD DAMAGE INSTRUMENT AND VOID WARRANTY
Printed Circuit Assemblies (PCAs) are sensitive to electro-static
discharges too small to be felt by the human nervous system. Failure to
use ESD protection when working with electronic assemblies will void
the instrument warranty. Refer to Section 13 for more information on
preventing ESD damage.
To install shunt in the last analyzer:
1. With NO power to the instrument, remove its top cover and lay the rear panel
open for access to the multidrop PCA, which is seated on the CPU.
2. On the multidrop PCA’s JP2 connector, use the shunt provided to jumper Pins
21 22 as indicated in (Figure 3-14).
Figure 3-14: JP2 Pins 21-22 on RS-232-Multidrop PCA
Note: If you are adding an instrument to the end of a previously configured chain,
remove the shunt between Pins 21 22 of JP2 on the Multidrop/LVDS PCA in the
instrument that was previously the last instrument in the chain.
Teledyne Analytical Instruments 60
6200T Total Sulfur Analyzer Getting Started
3. Close the instrument.
4. Referring to Figure 3-15 use straight-through DB9 male DB9 female cables
to interconnect the host RS232 port to the first analyzer’s RS232 port; then
from the first analyzer’s COM2 port to the second analyzer’s RS232 port; from
the second analyzer’s COM2 port to the third analyzer’s RS232 port, etc.,
connecting in this fashion up to eight analyzers, subject to the distance
limitations of the RS-232 standard.
5. BEFORE communicating from the host, power on the instruments and check
that the Machine ID code is unique for each (Section 5.7.1). On the front panel
menu, use SETUP>MORE>COMM>ID. Note that the default ID is typically
the model number; to change the 4-digit identification number, press the button
of the digit to be changed).
Note Teledyne Analytical Instruments recommends setting up the first link,
between the Host and the first analyzer, and testing it before setting up
the rest of the chain.

3.3.2. Pneumatic Connections
This section provides not only pneumatic connection information, but also important
information about the gases required for accurate calibration (Section 3.3.2.10); it also
illustrates the pneumatic layouts for the analyzer in three common configurations.
Before making the pneumatic connections, carefully note the following cautionary and
additional messages:
CAUTION
GENERAL SAFETY HAZARD
SULFUR DIOXIDE (SO2) IS A TOXIC GAS.
ATTENTION
DO NOT vent calibration gas and sample gas into enclosed areas. Obtain
a Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) for this material. Read and
rigorously follow the safety guidelines described there.
CAUTION
GENERAL SAFETY HAZARD
Sample and calibration gases should only come into contact with PTFE
(Teflon) or glass tubes and fixtures.
They SHOULD NOT come in contact with brass or stainless steel fittings
prior to the reaction cell.
The exhaust from the analyzer’s internal pump MUST be vented outside
the immediate area or shelter surrounding the instrument.
It is important to conform to all safety requirements regarding exposure
to SO2.
COULD DAMAGE INSTRUMENT AND VOID WARRANTY
Maximum Pressure:
Ideally the maximum pressure of any gas at the sample inlet should
equal ambient atmospheric pressure and should NEVER exceed 1.5 inhg above ambient pressure.
Venting Pressurized Gas:
In applications where any gas (span gas, zero air supply, sample gas
is) received from a pressurized manifold, a vent must be provided to
equalize the gas with ambient atmospheric pressure before it enters
the analyzer to ensure that the gases input do not exceed the
maximum inlet pressure of the analyzer, as well as to prevent back
diffusion and pressure effects. These vents should be:
• at least 0.2m long
• no more than 2m long
• vented outside the shelter or immediate area surrounding the
instrument.
Teledyne Analytical Instruments 62
6200T Total Sulfur Analyzer Getting Started
Dust Plugs:
Remove dust plugs from rear panel exhaust and supply line fittings
before powering on/operating instrument. These plugs should be kept
for reuse in the event of future storage or shipping to prevent debris
from entering the pneumatics.
IMPORTANT
IMPORTANT
EPA Requirements:
US EPA requirements state that zero air and span gases must be
supplied at twice the instrument’s specified gas flow rate. Therefore,
the 6200T zero and span gases should be supplied to their respective
inlets in excess of 1300 cc
3
/min (650 cc3/min. x 2).
Leak Check:
Run a leak check once the appropriate pneumatic connections have
been made; check all pneumatic fittings for leaks using the
procedures defined in Section 11.3.6.
CAUTION – GENERAL SAFETY HAZARD
Gas flow though the analyzer must be maintained at all time for units with
a permeation tube installed. Insufficient gas flow allows gas to build up
to levels that will contaminate the instrument or present a safety hazard
to personnel.

Getting Started Model 6200T Total Sulfur Analyzer
One primary application of this instrument is to analyze CO2 sample gas for sulfur
containing impurities. Typically the impurities should be at low levels; therefore it is
especially important that the zero calibration of the analyzer is done accurately so that
even small levels of impurities can be detected.

For this type of application, a source of CO
that is free of sulfides is required for

accurate zero calibration of the instrument. If the ‘zero gas’ used to zero the instrument
is contaminated, the process gas will read artificially low, sometimes even showing a
negative TS concentration. Standard CO

and Section 9.7.1),
Remotely through the RS-232/485 serial I/O ports (refer to Appendix A-6
for the applicable commands), or
Remotely via Ethernet
Note The permeation tube is not included in the IZS Option and must be
ordered separately. Refer to Section 1.4 for permeation tube options.
3.3.2.5. Permeation Tube Heater
In order to keep the permeation rate constant, the IZS enclosure is heated to a constant
50 C (10° above the maximum operating temperature of the instrument). The IZS heater
is controlled by a precise PID (Proportional/Integral/Derivative) temperature control
loop. A thermistor measures the actual temperature and reports it to the CPU for control
feedback.
The IZS option includes an external zero air scrubber assembly that removes all SO
zero air source. The scrubber is filled with activated charcoal.

Span gas is created when zero air passes over a permeation tube containing liquid SO
under high pressure, which slowly permeates through a PTFE membrane into the
surrounding air. The speed at which the SO

Size of the membrane: The larger the area of the membrane, the more

Flow rate of the zero air: If the previous two variables are constant, the
permeation rate of air into the zero air stream will be constant. Therefore, a
lower flow rate of zero air produces higher concentrations of SO
6200T usually has a constant flow rate and a constant permeation rate;
hence, variations in concentration can be achieved by changing the IZS

There are two charcoal scrubbers in the analyzer chassis of the 6200T. The scrubber
canister on the outside of the rear panel of the analyzer is a standard charcoal scrubber
that supplies zero air for the diluter assembly. The second scrubber is located inside the
analyzer behind the sample filter. This scrubber uses a specially impregnated charcoal
(TAI Part# CH_52) which is especially effective in scrubbing TS gasses. This filter is
used to scrub TS from the inlet sample gas for use in zero calibrating the analyzer.

an Internal Zero Span (IZS) or an external zero air scrubber option, it is capable of
creating zero air.
Teledyne Analytical Instruments 72
6200T Total Sulfur Analyzer Getting Started
For analyzers without an IZS or external zero air scrubber option, a zero air generator
such as the Teledyne Analytical Instruments Model 701 can be used (Figure 3-16).

3.4. Startup, Functional Checks, and Initial Calibration
If you are unfamiliar with the 6200T principles of operation, we recommend that you
read Section 13. For information on navigating the analyzer’s software menus, refer to
the menu trees provided in Appendix A.
CAUTION - GENERAL SAFETY HAZARD
Do not look at the UV lamp while the unit is operating. UV light can
cause eye damage. Always use safety glasses made from UV blocking
material whenever working with the UV Lamp. (Generic plastic glasses
are not adequate).
3.4.1. Startup
After the electrical and pneumatic connections are made, an initial functional check is in
order. Turn on the instrument. The pump and exhaust fan should start immediately.
The display will show a momentary splash screen of the Teledyne Analytical
Instruments logo and other information during the initialization process while the CPU
loads the operating system, the firmware and the configuration data.
The analyzer should automatically switch to Sample Mode after completing the boot-up
sequence and start monitoring the
warm-up period before reliable gas measurements can be taken. During the warm-up
period, the front panel display may show messages in the Parameters field.
3.4.1.1. Thermal Converter Startup
The MTS501 Converter uses a temperature controller for setting and controlling the
conversion temperature inside the quartz tube. The quartz tube will take 1 to 2 hours to
heat up and stabilize at the required temperature. The setpoint and control characteristics
have been set up at the factory, but if necessary, they are user adjustable. Refer to the
included manual for making fine adjustments to the temperature setpoint and control
characteristics. See also Sections 3.4.1.2 and 3.4.1.3.
To view the actual temperature, PV – Present Value, or the set point value, SV – Setpoint Value, press the PV/SV button in the lower left corner of the controller.
gas. However, there is an approximately one hour
3.4.1.2. Changing the Temperature Setpoint
The temperature can be adjusted to temperatures other than 1000°C. However, TAI
recommends that the converter always be left at the nominal temperature of 1000°C.
Teledyne Analytical Instruments 74
6200T Total Sulfur Analyzer Getting Started
The converter has not been tested for conversion efficiency or reliability at other
temperatures, and TAI does not guarantee warranty support or that the converter will
meet published specifications if the operating temperature is changed. To adjust the
operating temperature:
1. Select SV with the PV/SV button,
2. Select the Set-Point value at approximately 1000°C by pressing the "up-arrow"
under the digit you want to change, (the digit will flash).
NOTE:
DO NOT SET THE TEMPERATURE HIGHER THAN 1050°C
3. Press the "up-arrow" under the digit or the "down-arrow" at the left to scroll the
digit to the desired value.
4. Repeat for each digit.
5. Press the ENTER button.
6. Select PV with the PV/SV button to observe the actual temperature. After
making a setpoint change, allow the temperature to equilibrate for a minimum
of 30 to 45 minutes.
3.4.1.3. Adjusting the P-I-D Parameters
In the event that the control parameters must be changed or in the event that a new
controller is installed, it must be reprogrammed to suit the thermal characteristics of the
instrument. It is recommended that the Auto Tune function be used to set the control
functions if reprogramming is necessary.
The following table is a guide to the approximate values for setting the parameters that
will produce the initial settings for the auto-tune function. Below is a summary of the
auto-tune procedure, refer to the Fuji Manual for more detailed information.
Auto-Tune
To perform the Auto Tune function:
1. Set the SV to the desired temperature.
2. Set the parameter A7 to 1.
3. Press ENTER.
The controller will begin the auto-tune process, which takes several minutes. The
decimal point at the lower right of the display will blink, indicating the controller is
auto-tuning. During the process, the temperature may oscillate 100°C or more. When
the process is completed, the decimal point will stop blinking.
NOTE:
It is normal for the ceramic heating element to emit a red glow at the operating temperature.

3.4.4. Initial Calibration
To perform the following calibration you must have sources for zero air and span gas
available for input into the sample port on the back of the analyzer. Refer to Section
3.3.2 for instructions for connecting these gas sources.
The initial calibration should be carried out using the same reporting range set up as
used during the analyzer’s factory calibration. This will allow you to compare your
calibration results to the factory calibration as listed on the Final Test and Validation
Data Sheet, P/N 04551.
If both available DAS parameters for a specific gas type are being reported via the
instruments analog outputs (e.g. CONC1 and CONC2 when the DUAL range mode is
activated), separate calibrations should be carried out for each parameter.
Use the LOW button when calibrating for CONC1 (equivalent to
RANGE1).
Use the HIGH button when calibrating for CONC2 (equivalent to
RANGE2).
Refer to the Configurable Analog Output Addendum, P/N 06270 for more information
on the configurable analog output reporting ranges.
Note The following procedure assumes that the instrument does not have any
of the available Valve Options installed. Refer to Section 9.4 for
instructions for calibrating instruments possessing valve options
Note The 6200T analyzer has been tested for its ability to reject interference for
most sources. See Section 13.1.9 for more information on this topic.
3.4.4.1. Initial Calibration Procedure for Basic Analyzers (no 2nd Gas option)
The following procedure assumes that:
The instrument DOES NOT have any of the available calibration valve or
gas inlet options installed;
Cal gas will be supplied through the SAMPLE gas inlet on the back of the
analyzer (refer to Figure 3-4), and;
The pneumatic setup matches that described in Section 3.3.2.
3.4.4.1.1 Verifying the Reporting Range Settings
While it is possible to perform the following procedure with any range setting we
recommend that you perform this initial checkout using following reporting range
settings:
Unit of Measure: PPB
Analog Output Reporting Range: 500.0 ppb

6200T Total Sulfur Analyzer Overview of Operating Modes
4. OVERVIEW OF OPERATING MODES
To assist in navigating the analyzer’s software, a series of menu trees can be found in
Appendix A of this manual.
Note Some control buttons on the touch screen do not appear if they are not
applicable to the menu that you’re in, the task that you are performing, the
command you are attempting to send, or to incorrect settings input by the
user. For example, the ENTR button may disappear if you input a setting
that is invalid or out of the allowable range for that parameter, such as
trying to set the 24-hour clock to 25:00:00. Once you adjust the setting to
an allowable value, the ENTR button will re-appear.
The 6200T software has a variety of operating modes. Most commonly, the analyzer
will be operating in SAMPLE mode. In this mode, a continuous read-out of the SO
concentration can be viewed on the front panel and output as an analog voltage from
rear panel terminals, calibrations can be performed, and TEST functions and
WARNING messages can be examined.
The second most important operating mode is SETUP mode. This mode is used for
performing certain configuration operations, such as for the DAS system, the reporting
ranges, or the serial (RS-232 / RS-485 / Ethernet) communication channels. The SET
UP mode is also used for performing various diagnostic tests during troubleshooting.

4.2. Calibration Mode
Pressing the CAL button switches the analyzer into calibration mode. In this mode, the
user can calibrate the instrument with the use of calibrated zero or span gases.
If the instrument includes either the zero/span valve option or IZS option, the display
will also include CALZ and CALS buttons. Pressing either of these buttons also puts
the instrument into multipoint calibration mode.
The CALZ button is used to initiate a calibration of the zero point.
The CALS button is used to calibrate the span point of the analyzer. It is
recommended that this span calibration is performed at 80% of full scale of
the analyzer’s currently selected reporting range.
Because of their critical importance and complexity, calibration operations are described
in detail in other sections of the manual:
Section 9 details basic calibration and calibration check operations.
Section 10 describes how to perform an EPA protocol calibration.

Figure 5-2: SETUP – Analog Output Connector
All three outputs can be configured either at the factory or by the user for full scale
outputs of 0.1 VDC, 1VDC, 5VDC or 10VDC. Additionally A1 and A2 may be
equipped with optional 0-20 mA DC current loop drivers and configured for any current
output within that range (e.g. 0-20, 2-20, 4-20, etc.). The user may also adjust the signal
level and scaling of the actual output voltage or current to match the input requirements
of the recorder or data logger (Refer to Section 6.9.4.3 and 6.9.4.5).
In its basic configuration, the A1 and A2 channels of the 6200T output a signal that is
proportional to the SO
concentration of the sample gas. Several operating modes are
2
available which allow:
Single range mode (SNGL Mode, refer to Section 6.7.4): Both outputs are
slaved together and will represent the same concentration span (e.g. 0-50
ppm); however their electronic signal levels may be configured for different
ranges (e.g. 0-10 VDC vs. 0-.1 VDC – Refer to Section 6.9.4).
Dual range mode(DUAL mode, refer to Section 6.7.5): The two outputs
can to configured for separate and independent units of measure and
measurement spans as well as separate electronic signal levels.
Auto range mode (AUTO mode, refer to Section 6.7.6) gives the analyzer
the ability to automatically switch the A1 and A2 analog outputs between
two ranges (low and high) dynamically as the concentration value
fluctuates.
EXAMPLE:
A1 OUTPUT: Output Signal = 0-5 VDC representing 0-1000 ppm concentration values
A2 OUTPUT: Output Signal = 0 – 10 VDC representing 0-500 ppm concentration values.
A3 OUTPUT: Test channel; e.g., PMT signal = 0-5V
Output A4 is not available on the 6200T Analyzer in standard configuration.
5.4.2. Physical Range versus Analog Output Reporting Ranges
The entire measurement range of the 6200T is 0 – 20,000 ppb, but many applications
use only a small part of the analyzer’s full measurement range. This creates two
performance challenges:
The width of the 6200T’s physical range can create data resolution problems for most
analog recording devices. For example, in an application where the expected
Teledyne Analytical Instruments 98
6200T Total Sulfur Analyzer Setup Menu
concentration of SO2 is typically less than 500 ppb, the full scale of expected values is
only 0.25% of the instrument’s full 20,000 ppb measurement range. Unmodified, the
corresponding output signal would also be recorded across only 0.25% of the range of
the recording device.
The 6200T solves this problem by allowing the user to select a scaled reporting range
for the analog outputs that only includes that portion of the physical range relevant to the
specific application. Only the reporting range of the analog outputs is scaled, the
physical range of the analyzer and the readings displayed on the front panel remain
unaltered.
Applications where low concentrations of SO
and resolution than typically necessary for measurements of higher concentrations.
The 6200T solves this issue by using two hardware physical ranges that cover the
instrument’s entire 0 and 20,000 ppb measurement range: a 0 to 2,000 ppb physical
range for increased sensitivity and resolution when measuring very low SO
concentrations, and a 0 to 20,000 ppb physical range for measuring higher SO
concentrations. The analyzer’s software automatically selects which physical range is in
effect based on the analog output reporting range selected by the user.
If the high end of the selected reporting range is 2,000 ppb. The low

are measured require greater sensitivity
2
2
2
If the high end of the selected reporting range is 2,001 ppb. The high
physical range is selected.
Once properly calibrated, the analyzer’s front panel display will accurately report
concentrations along the entire span of its 0 and 20,000 ppb physical range regardless of
which reporting range has been selected for the analog outputs and which physical range
is being used by the instrument’s software.
Teledyne Analytical Instruments 99
Setup Menu Model 6200T Total Sulfur Analyzer
5.4.3. Reporting Range Modes: Single, Dual, Auto Ranges
The 6200T provides three analog output range modes to choose from:
Single range (SNGL) mode sets a single maximum range for the analog
output. If single range is selected (refer to Section 5.4.3.1) both outputs are
slaved together and will represent the same measurement span (e.g. 0-50
ppm), however their electronic signal levels may be configured for different
ranges (e.g. 0-10 VDC vs. 0-.1 VDC – Refer to Section 5.9.3.1).
Dual range (DUAL) allows the A1 and A2 outputs to be configured with
different measurement spans (refer to Section 5.4.3.2).
Auto range (AUTO) mode gives the analyzer to ability to output data via a
low range and high range. When this mode is selected (refer to Section
5.4.3.3) the 6200T will automatically switch between the two ranges
dynamically as the concentration value fluctuates.
Also, in this mode the RANGE Test function displayed on the front panel during
SAMPLE mode will be replaced by two separate functions, Range1 and Range2.
Range status is also output via the External Digital I/O Status Bits (refer to Section
8.1.1).
