2           PRINCIPLE

2.1          Sensing Cell

Sensing cell is a closed end,90mm length and 7.0mm diameter tube made of Zirconium oxide. When it is red hot, it becomes a oxygen concentration cell because of movement of oxygen ions in its crystal structure. If there are two different gases having different oxygen partial pressure on both side of the cell, a voltage is produce.

Electrodes of porous platinum are coated onto inside an outside of the cell and connected to a panel meter circuit. Outside(sample side)of the cell is coated with ceramic filter.

2.2          Oxygen Analysis

When both side of the cell contact with gases which have different oxygen partial pressure, a voltage (EMF) is produced that is logarithmic proportional to the ratio of oxygen concentration of the cell is known (usually ambient air ---20.95%c), another side i.e. the sample oxygen can be directly measured by cell EMF.

The cell EMF is also related to cell temperature. Therefore the cell is maintained at constant temperature using (RTD), proportional temperature controller and electrical cell heater.

For the oxygen in non-combustible gases, the oxygen value is calculated from following formula:

E=0.0496. T. log(20.95%/x%)+C

Where T is the absolute cell temperature and O2  x% is vol % of oxygen of the sample gas. The sensing cell therefore, produce no signal when air is on both side, and the voltage increases is the sample oxygen content becomes more different from air.

Under the vacuum condition, oxygen partial pressure relates to vacuum. For example, 760ppm at atmospheric pressure becomes 1ppm at 1Torr vacuum.

3           OPERATION

3.1          Start up

1)        Turn on the power supply of Control unit.

2)        About 10 minutes after, when the display of control unit will show (CELL TEMP) 735, sensor should be in operating condition.

3.2          Stop

Cut of the supply of Control Unit.

4           CALIBRATION

l           Condition of Calibration Gas

1)        Generally, instrument air (20.95% O2 ) or ambient air is used for span gas.

2)        100~200ppm% O2 is N2 mixture is used an zero gas.

l           Periodical calibration

During operating, we recommend calibration gas check 1time per 2 or 3 moths. When analyzer works unusually, gas check also recommended.
