Main instructions for operation
Start-up
Ensure gas tightness; check the filters, valves etc.
Ensure correct supply of operation gases (specifications
).
After start-up wait until the warm-up period has elapsed (approx. 2 hours).
Then calibrate the device (
Operational state
Observe the LED displays:
– “Alarm” (red) = measured value is/was outside the threshold values
– “Fault” (yellow) = malfunction in the measuring system; the measured values are
not valid
– “Service” (yellow) = action by user required (service requirement)
– “OK” (green) = EuroFID measuring system is ready for operation; meas. value is valid
Observe the messages at the bottom of the display.
If “Alarm” is displayed
Check the current measured value. Assess the situation.
Take appropriate action to deal with this situation during operation.
If the alarm message is self-locking:
Cancel the alarm message (“Reset”
) as soon as the measured value is inside the threshold value.
In hazardous situations
Switch off the emergency off switch/main switch of the higher-level system.
Maintenance
Calibrate the device regularly (
Clean the integrated sample gas filter regularly (every 2 months
If the EuroFID is used as a gas detector:
Check the function of the alarms regularly.
Shutdown
Secure/deactivate connected systems (
).
Prevent condensation in the measuring system. To this purpose purge the sample gas
path with dry gas.
The simplest solution:
Use the “Zero point test” function (
).
Let the analyzer unit cool before starting work on the interior of the device (risk of burns).
Fragile sampling probe
Only valid for “inline” and “industrial housing” type analyzer units.
The mains switch of the EuroFID is on the rear of the operating unit (
NOTICE:
Only open the sample gas filter when the “Filter change” status is activated
(procedure
).
Otherwise dust-laden ambient air can enter the measuring system. Soiling
which occurs as a result can render the measuring system useless.
Observe the permissible lifting points (
Do not use the sampling probe as a lifting point.
Do not subject the sampling probe to mechanical loads.
This could cause breakage of the glass vacuum tube.
