  • Page 4: Safety Instructions

    METROTEC Safety instructions Please read through this operating manual very carefully before & installing and commissioning the unit. Incorrect utilisation will invalidate the guarantee! Correct functioning and the operating safety of the unit can only be guaranteed if the ambient conditions specified in the Specifications chapter are maintained.
  • Page 5: Preface

    METROTEC Preface With the aid of an oxygen sensor , the measurement unit serves to measure the oxygen partial pressure in gaseous atmospheres. Such sensors work at high temperatures and so it is necessary for measures to be taken to ensure that no flammable gas mixtures contact the sensor or the unit.

  • Page 7: Introduction

    METROTEC Introduction Measurement principle Oxygen measurement units are designed to process signals transmitted from an oxygen sensor constructed of stabilized zirconium oxide. Zirconium oxide, a ceramic material that is also spoken of as a solid-state electrolyte, acts as an excellent oxygen-ion conductor when at a high temperature.
  • Page 8: Measuring Electronics

    METROTEC Measuring Electronics The electronic system of the GSM measuring device features the following functions: Measurement of the partial pressure of oxygen Generation of alarms Calculation of the dew point Calculation of the Lambda air factor The measuring device is operated through the touch screen.

  • Page 11: Device Start-Up

    METROTEC Device Start-up Switching the Measuring Device on After connecting the power cable, the device can be switched on by pressing the power switch. The display lights up briefly. After ca. 15 seconds system start information will show up, depending on the setup, and after the boot routine the standard screen of the measuring device will appear.
  • Page 12: Measurement

    METROTEC After heating up, the measuring unit shows the measured oxygen content. The status field reads: “Ready”, with the box lit up in green. A stable measuring value will only be achieved ca. 15 minutes after heating up has finished.
  • Page 13: Flow

    METROTEC 5.2.2 Flow In order to examine sample gases, these will need to be directed into the measuring instrument. In case the sample gas source is pressurized, for example a gas bottle, the gas flow must be reduced to an appropriate level by means of a pressure reducer.
  • Page 14 METROTEC The pump performance setting can be adjusted in the “Parameter” menu. Touch field After actuating the button “Parameter”, the Level 1 menu selection for which no CODE has to be entered will open. After pressing the line “008 Pump speed” the “ENTER” is activated.
  • Page 15: Bottled Gases

    METROTEC The value can be entered numerically or can be incremented or decremented by means of the arrow keys. The button “Save” will store the value and at the same time initiate a jump to the previous menu page. To go back to the main menu, press the “Exit” button.
  • Page 16: Specific Information

    METROTEC 5.4.4 Specific Information In case a condensate separator is used, it must be ensured that the collecting tank is placed at the lowest point of the entire line system, particularly in the case of water. The dead volume of condensate tanks and filters will likely cause a delay in the measuring process.
  • Page 17 METROTEC Selection of the value to be displayed can be accomplished by pressing the respective button. The measured oxygen value will be displayed in percent and changes its unit automatically into ppm (parts per million), when the measured value is below 0.1 %.
  • Page 18: Log O2

    METROTEC Log O2 The display can take on values between 0.0 und –30.0. The value shown is the logarithm of the oxygen partial pressure. Displaying the logarithmic value permits values up to many powers of ten to be shown as a number consisting of only a few characters.
  • Page 19: Dew Point

    METROTEC Dew Point Some measuring tasks require a result given as the dew point temperature. This is often the case with nitrogen/hydrogen mixtures. Here the measured O value will be converted into a dew point if the exact hydrogen proportion is known. Therefore it is mandatory to input the H proportion into menu line 26.
  • Page 20: O 2 Red (O 2 In H 2 )

    METROTEC Example of a display with trend in the range between 0 – 10 Red (O in H In order to obtain the oxygen value in a mixture which may for example consist of nitrogen and hydrogen, the oxygen partial pressure can be used to calculate this value based on the hydrogen proportion.
  • Page 21: Parameterisation

    METROTEC Parameterisation The parameter level can be reached from the main screen. Touch area LEVEL “0” will open, for which no CODE is required. Line 002,003, 004, 005 006 or 008 is selectable.

  • Page 33: Correcting The Measured Value

    METROTEC Correcting the Measured Value The current measured value can be corrected, as required. In this case it is advisable to make the adjustment after a stable measurement has been achieved and possible errors in measurement can be ruled out.
  • Page 34: Setting The Alarms

    METROTEC Notes on the correction: The additive value will be used to adjust the display to 20.9 % when correcting § the oxygen. For this purpose the sample gas input will be kept open when the sample gas § pump is switched on so that ambient air will be sucked in. The result of the correction is shown on the right half of the display.
  • Page 35: Calculating The Dew Point

    METROTEC Calculating the Dew Point The dew point will be calculated based on the measured oxygen partial Ø pressure and knowing the hydrogen proportion in the gas mixture. The hydrogen proportion must be entered in percent. (See menu line No. 26.)
