Quickstart Guide Trace Oxygen Analyzer BASIC OPERATION Once the analyzer has been installed, it can be configured for your application. Prior to using the instrument you must: • Calibrate the instrument • Define the analysis ranges and choose whether to use autoranging or a fixed range. • Set alarm setpoints and modes of alarm operation. Additional configuration parameters are available to tailor the instrument to your particular application.
Model 3000 TA-XL-EU Quickstart Guide Available Functions The six function buttons are used to control the analyzer. Some functions have submenus that allow additional choices as shown below.
Quickstart Guide Trace Oxygen Analyzer Any function can be selected at any time by pressing the appropriate button (unless password restrictions apply). Password Protection If a password is assigned, then setting the following system parameters can be done only after the password is entered: span and zero settings, alarm setpoints, analysis range definitions, switching between autoranging and manual override, setting up an auto-cal, and assigning a new password.
Model 3000 TA-XL-EU Quickstart Guide ◄► arrow keys to scroll back and forth between letters, and the ▲▼ arrow keys to change the letters to the proper password. • Press Enter to enter the password. Change Password? =Yes =No • Press Escape. Calibration of the Analyzer For trace analysis, the analyzer must be purged before calibration. Refer to the Instruction manual for purging procedure. Zero Calibration Make sure an appropriate zero gas is connected to the sample port for this procedure.
Quickstart Guide Trace Oxygen Analyzer The zeroing process will automatically conclude when the output is within the acceptable range for a good zero. Then the analyzer automatically returns to the Analyze mode. Manual Mode Zeroing • Press Zero to enter the Zero function. • Use the ▲▼ keys to toggle between AUTO and MAN zero settling. Stop when MAN appears, blinking, on the display. Zero: Settling: Man To Begin • Press Enter to begin the zero calibration.

Manual Mode Spanning: • Press Span to start the Span function. Span: Settling:MAN For Next • Use the ▲▼ keys to toggle between AUTO and MAN span settling. Stop when MAN appears, blinking, on the display. Press Enter to move to the next screen. Calib. Holding time Cal hold: 5 min • Press Enter key to continue. Span Val: 000008.
Quickstart Guide • Trace Oxygen Analyzer Press the Alarm button on the front panel to enter the Alarm function. Make sure that AL–1 is blinking.
