Model 202 Ozone Monitor Manual Rev. J-4

MAINTENANCE
The Model 202 Ozone Monitor is designed to be nearly maintenance free. The only
components that require routine maintenance are the ozone scrubber, which should
be changed at least once every six months of operation, and the air pump, which has
rated lifetime of ~20,000 hours of operation. Other user-serviceable components
include the lamp, clock battery, and solenoid valve, which are easily replaced should
they fail. In addition, the inlet filter (user supplied) should be changed as
recommended by the filter manufacturer.
The
Model 202’s quiet, long-life air pump has a lifetime specified by the manufacturer
to be in the range of about 20,000 hours depending on environmental factors. This
corresponds to over 2 years of continuous operation. The pump selected for use is
based on several years of experience with different pump manufacturers and models.
Pump Options
•
An internal extra-long-life, low-temperature air pump is available as an upgrade
if pump lifetime and/or working at low temperatures are the main concerns.
•
A Low-Power Option is available if power is the main concern. The pump
configuration for this Option uses a different internal pump and backup (as was
used in earlier versions of the Model 202, serial no. 1899 and below). This
pump consumes less power but is louder and has a lower lifetime (~5,000
hours). With the Low-Power Option, the SD data logger is also disabled to
save power. The Model 202 with the Low-Power Option consumes about 2
watts less than the standard Model 202.
