Trace Oxygen Analyzer Introduction 1 Introduction 1.1 Overview The Teledyne Analytical Instruments (TAI) Model 3190 is a micropro- cessor-based trace oxygen analyzer for real-time measurement of trace amounts of oxygen in inert gases, or in a wide variety of gas mixtures. It features simple operation, fast response, and a compact, rugged construction. Typical applications of the Model 3190 are monitoring nitrogen generators and inert gas blanketing applications. 1.2 Main Features of the Analyz

1 Introduction Model 3190 Two concentration alarms with adjustable setpoints. Sensor failure alarm. RS-232 serial digital port for output of concentration and range data to a computer, terminal, or other digital device. Three analog outputs: two for measurement (0–10 V dc, and negative ground 4–20 mA dc) and one for range identification (0-10 V dc). Compact and rugged Control Unit with flush-panel case. Designed for indoor use. Front panel NEMA-4 rated. External Probe can be loca

Trace Oxygen Analyzer Operational Theory 2 Operational Theory 2.1 Introduction The analyzer is composed of two subsystems: 1. Analysis Unit with Micro-Fuel Cell Sensor 2. Control Unit with Signal Processing, Display and Controls The Analysis Unit is designed to accept the sample gas and direct it to the sensitive surface of the Micro-Fuel Cell sensor. The Micro-Fuel Cell is an electrochemical galvanic device that translates the amount of oxygen present in the sample into an electrical current.

2 Operational Theory Model 3190 stored within the cell, whereas in the Micro-Fuel Cell, one of the reactants (oxygen) comes from outside the device as a constituent of the sample gas being analyzed. The Micro-Fuel Cell is therefore a hybrid between a battery and a true fuel cell. (All of the reactants are stored externally in a true fuel cell.) 2.2.2 Anatomy of a Micro-Fuel Cell The Micro-Fuel Cell is a cylinder only 1¼ inches in diameter and 1 inch thick. It is made of extremely ine

Trace Oxygen Analyzer Operational Theory 2 At the top end of the cell is a diffusion membrane of Teflon, whose thickness is very accurately controlled. Beneath the diffusion membrane lies the oxygen sensing element—the cathode—with a surface area almost 2 4 cm . The cathode has many perforations to ensure sufficient wetting of the upper surface with electrolyte, and it is plated with an inert metal. The anode structure is below the cathode. It is made of lead and has a proprietary design which

The only likely components are the halogens.) The output of the fuel cell is limited by (1) the amount of oxygen in the cell at the time and (2) the amount of stored anode material. In the absence of oxygen, no current is generated. 2.2.4 The Effect of Pressure In order to state

2 Operational Theory Model 3190 Figure 2-3: Block Diagram of the Signal Processing Electronics In the presence of oxygen the cell generates a current. A current to voltage amplifier (I–E AMPL) converts this current to a voltage. The second stage amplifier (TEMP COMP) supplies temperature compensation for the oxygen sensor output. The temperature compensation amplifier incorporates a thermistor (THERM) that is physically located in the cell block. The thermistor is a temperature depen
