2-3 LOCATION 
Install the Analyzer Module in a clean, non-
hazardous, weather protected, vibration free 
location free from extreme temperature varia-
tions. For best results, either install the mod-
ule near the sample stream to minimize 
sample transport time or supply a flow greater 
than necessary and route only the appropriate 
amount through the Analyzer Module. 
Observing these requirements are critical.  
Note the following: 
•  Excessive vibration can cause a noisy 
readout.  To minimize vibration effects, 
the detector/magnet assembly is envel-
oped in a shock-mounted compartment. 
•  The user should ensure, when making 
any internal electrical connections, that 
no cables are placed in contact with the 
detector assembly or associated internal 
sample inlet and outlet tubing. 
•  Magnetic susceptibilities and partial 
pressures of gases vary with tempera-
ture.  Permissible ambient temperature 
range is 32
°F to 113°F (0°C to 45°C). 
•  The interior of the Detector Assembly is 
maintained at approximately 144
°F 
(62
°C) by an electronically controlled 
heater.  Prior to entering the detector 
assembly, the sample is heated in a 
coiled tubing to match the detector's 
temperature. 
2-4 GASES 
a. Requirements 
Calibration Gases 
Analyzer Module calibration requires the 
establishment of zero and span calibra-
tion points.  This requires a zero standard 
gas to set the zero point span gas to es-
tablish a calibration point at or near the 
upper range limit. 
An oxygen-free gas, typically nitrogen, is 
required for use as the zero standard gas.  
Recommendations for span calibration 
gases, bases on various operating 
ranges, are tabulated in Table 3-4 on 
page 3-10.  Air (20.93% oxygen) can be 
used as span gas regardless of the 
ranges used for sampling, although very 
low ranges may lose accuracy. 
Sample Gas 
Sample gas should be non-flammable. 
Temperature 
Sample temperature at the inlet should be 
from 50
°F to 150°F (10°C to 66°C).  A 
maximum entry temperature of 110
°F 
(43
°C) is recommended to prevent cool-
ing of the sample and possible internal 
condensation.  Such condensation could 
damage some components of the Ana-
lyzer Module.  This recommendation can 
be ignored if a thoroughly dry sample is 
examined. 
Pressure 
Sample exhaust pressure limits are -5 to 
10 psig (-345 to 690 hPa-gauge).  Normal 
operation is in the positive range, be-
tween 0 and 10 psig (0 and 690 hPa-
gauge).  Negative gauge pressures are 
not normally recommended, but may be 
used in certain special applications. 
To prevent over-pressurization, insert a 
pressure relief valve into the sample inlet 
line.  A check valve should also be placed 
in the outlet line if the Analyzer Module is 
connected to a manifold associated with a 
flare or other apparatus that does not op-
erate at atmospheric pressure. 
The outlet port is commonly vented to the 
atmosphere.  Any change in barometric 
pressure has a directly proportional effect 
on the indicated percent of oxygen, and 
should be neutralized through manual or 
computer correction of data.  Note the fol-
lowing example:
