  • Page 5: Introduction

    Introduction This manual provides maintenance information common to various Maxum Edition II Gas Chromatograph models. Analyzer Specific Documents Included with each analyzer is a custom documentation-drawing package. This package provides drawings and information pertinent only to a specific analyzer. Contents of this package are application-dependent and vary for each analyzer.

  • Page 7: Safety Notes

    These standards are to ensure that the Maxum II and related products can be safely installed and operated in hazardous areas. Each individual detail and component of these safety systems is important to help ensure that the chromatograph does not ignite flammable vapors and gases which may be present in the environment surrounding the analyzer.
  • Page 8: Qualified Personnel

    ● Those who have been appropriately trained for the tasks which they are performing (for example, commissioning, maintenance, or operation). ● Those who have been appropriately trained in the operation of the Maxum II process gas chromatograph and are sufficiently acquainted with Maxum II documentation.
  • Page 9: System Functions

    Parallel Chromatography With the Maxum II hardware and software, a complex single-train chromatograph analysis can be broken it into multiple simple trains. Each simple train then runs simultaneously – in parallel. This parallel chromatography procedure simplifyies the overall analysis and increases reliability.

  • Page 11 System Functions 3.2 Functions Self Test After the self-test, the following conditions occur: ● Installed hardware is initialized. ● Interrupts are enabled. ● Oven temperatures and carrier pressure default set points are output. ● Analog input system(s), associated with detector inputs, are initialized and begin scanning. The System Controller (SYSCON) verifies that a valid database is resident, then ouputs the appropriate temperature and carrier set points.
  • Page 12 System Functions 3.2 Functions If a calibration is scheduled, it is put in queue. The calibration then initiates after completion of the current cycle, and when the appropriate time has passed for the calibration blend to flow through the sampling valve. If shift average reports are to be calculated and printed, the report should include all cycles, which started, or sampled, during the specified shift.
  • Page 13: Analyzer Operation

    ● Initiating a calculation Analyzer Operation This section provides an overview of the operation of the Maxum II analyzer. The examples show a Maxum II Airless/Airbath model in order to include many optional features. Most analyzers will have only some of these features; for example, the Modular Oven model has no detector compartment.
  • Page 14: Figure 3-2 Operational Block Diagram (Maxum Ii Airless Airbath Model Shown)

    The resultant conditioned sample is typically piped via 1/8-inch stainless steel tubing to the sample valve(s) located in the oven of the Maxum II. Maxum edition II Analyzer General Maintenance...
  • Page 15 3.3 Analyzer Operation Sample Valve The type of sample valve used in a Maxum II is application dependent. Five primary types of sample valves are available. ● The first is the 10-port Model 50 valve that is designed for vapor sample only.
  • Page 16 Depending upon the application, the Maxum II can include up to three detector modules. Each detector module can have multiple detector sensor elements. Several detector module types are available including Thermistor, Filament, Flame Ionization, Flame Photometric, and Pulsed Discharge.
  • Page 17: Data Communication

    System Functions 3.4 Data Communication The original SYSCON consists of a single controller board. The newest version of SYSCON, called SYSCON2, is a base SIB (SYSCON Interface Board) with an attached CAC3 (Communication and Control board). The SYSCON combines all data results and performs additional high level data processing and calculations.
  • Page 18: Figure 3-4 Identification Number

    System Functions 3.4 Data Communication Module Addressing The Maxum II modules located in the electronic compartment have their own physical address and communicate via the I C Internal Bus, shown in the diagram below. Address information is contained in the SYSCON database and identifies modules by their location. Each DPM is associated with a software SNE module that appears in the list as a separate device.

    General Maintenance and Troubleshooting Analyzer Status Indicators 4.1.1 Operator Controls Color Touchscreen The color touchscreen displays all mainte‐ nance functions and data in a graphical dis‐ play. In addition it can also display both real- time and stored chromatograms. The stored chromatograms include voltages and cycle times for future comparison as well as zoom and pan features.
  • Page 20 The Maxum II workstation software, Gas Chromatograph Portal (GCP), is designed for PCs with Microsoft® Windows operating systems. PC workstations can be connected through existing LANs for wide access to monitoring or maintenance tasks. The graphical interface recognizes and displays all network hardware.

  • Page 27: General Analyzer Shutdown Procedure

    Generally, a database reload will not be needed, though in some cases this may be required. 1. Put the Maxum II in Hold and wait for the cycle to complete. This will provide the quickest restart of the application when power is restored.
  • Page 28: Procedure

    NOTICE APU Considerations When an APU is used, there must not be any wiring entering the Maxum II EC that is powered from any outside source without connecting through the APU signal-disconnect relays. This warning includes the Advance Data Hiway, Ethernet, and any other input or output signal lines that are connected to other equipment which may source power onto the signal lines.
  • Page 29 General Maintenance and Troubleshooting 4.4 General Analyzer Startup Procedure Turn on the fast purge switch and allow fast purge air to flow for at least 8 minutes. Flow of fast purge air can be verified because of the louder sound of the air flow. The fast purge relief valve opens slightly and the air can be heard as it leaves the EC.
