Introduction
1.1 Overview
Teledyne Analytical Instruments (TAI) offers a variety of Total Organic Carbon (TOC) analyzers to serve a wide range of applications. The Model 6700C High Temperature Combustion TOC Analyzer provides accurate and reliable on-line TOC and TN analysis and is configured to provide maximum utility using an advanced Micro s of t
Windows based CE computer with touch screen.
This manual includes all necessary information to help you install, operate and service your Analyzer. The analyzer is designed for easy Operator Maintenance and does not normally require field service.
The Windows-based CE operator interface provides easy, fast and reliable analysis. This manual includes all necessary information to help you install, operate and service your Analyzer.

High Temperature Combustion Operational Theory
Operational Theory
2.1 Measurement Principle
Refer to Figure 2-1.
The Injector is connected with all possible flow paths and separated from sample and reagent liquids by a 10 ml volume loop. One end of the volume loop is connected to the injector, the other is connected to the center port of a 10 port Rotary Valve.
A typical sequence of events for the injection unit for measurement of TOC is as follows:
The Rotary Valve will be engaged, opening a flow path to the drain line of the analyzer. The Injector is then sent to the home or empty position.
The DI Valve is turned on and a small amount of DI is then picked up by the Injector. The DI Valve is then turned off and the Rotary Valve is turned to the Acid Port where the Injector pulls a small amount of acid into the loop. The Rotary Valve is then turned to the sample port and sample is pulled into the loop. The Rotary Valve is turned to the Sparge Port and the Injector then pushes the sample and acid to the sparger through the Sparger Port, where the pH is lowered to approximately 2.0 and inorganic carbon is removed.
After the sparge time is completed, the Injector pulls the inorganic free sample volume from the sparger. The Rotary Valve is then turned to the Reactor Port. The Injector pumps the sample into the reactor at a flow rate of one (1) drop in approximately seven (7) seconds.
The sample is oxidized in the High Temperature Furnace where organic carbon is converted to CO2 and the gases are directed to a cooler condenser where excess water is removed, and then on to the NDIR where the CO2 is measured and TOC is determined. The gases are then passed to vent.

3.2 Non – Catalytic Reactor Packing
The following pages describe the assembly of the Reactor using the
“Non-Catalytic” Oxidation Method at temperature up to 950°C.
Note: The Reactor life is directly related to temperature. It is
recommended that the operating temperature not exceed 900°C and preferably be at 850°C.

3.2.2 Preparation of Combustion Reactor
Note: The React or may be operated with platinum catalyst at
680º to 750º C or non-catalytically at higher temperature (850ºC recommended). The standard configuration is non­catalytic, although catalyst may be purchased and used, if an unusually difficult to oxidize sample is encountered.
TAI recommends to first raise the temperature to 900º C (max.) to determine if satisfactory performance is attained before packing the Reactor with catalyst. The Reactor temperature profile is 100º C higher than the temperature controller set point in certain areas of the Reactor.
Reactor life is highly dependent on operating temperature and the operator is cautioned not to exceed these temperature set points in order to prevent damage to the Reactor. The Reactor should be maintained at temperature and not turned on and off in order to minimize stress failure of the Reactor over a period of time.

as shown below in Figure 3-5.
Figure 3-5: Gas/Liquid Separator
Connect the Combustion Module Drain port to a facility gravity
drain with a 1 inch air break between the end of the drain line and any liquids in the collection vessel (jar, facility drain) in order to prevent a “vapor lock”. This drain line should be routed in a straight fashion and free of kinks or restrictions thereby allowing the liquids to drain freely.
Prepare the Gas/Liquid Separator by filling it with D.I. water
until it overflows to drain, as shown in Figure 3-6. This provides proper sealing of the reacted sample gases.
