INSTALLATION AND START-UP
Incoming sample temperature  0 °C and 100 °C
Optimum input gas temperature  60 °C ± 5 °C
Minimum input pressure   6  PSIG
Maximum pressure  50 PSIG
Wiring  22 gauge  twisted/shielded pair
Sample Input Tubing  ¼” OD, electropolished 316L VAR SS
Make sure power is o  before you begin installation. 
Rear Panel Connections:
1.  Remove terminal cover to access interface board.
2.  Install main process shut-o  valve and pressure regulator at sample tap.
Gas Connections:
1.  Remove VCR plugs and gaskets from sample inlet  tting and exhaust  tting and con-
nect sample input tube and exhaust tube. Vent exhaust to  vent system.
2.  Connect instrument air supply to instrument air  tting.
3.  Select 120 or 240VAC on voltage selector. Mark operating voltage on rear panel.
Electrical Connections:
1.  Make sure the installed power cord has an approved terminator plug per NEC and CEC 
regulations.
2.  Wire the analyzer per requirements for non-hazardous location per instructions in 
Chapter 3 of the manual.
Communications Connections:
1.  Connect 4-to-20 mA analog output and alarm/data valid terminals on interface board 
to analyzer using metallic signal conduit.
2.  Connect the RS-232 or RS-485 serial communications to analyzer. RS-485 connection 
shares same cable and metallic signal conduit as analog output and alarm/data valid 
contacts.
3.  RS-485 Communications:  RS-485 terminator switch is turned to “ON,” only if your unit 
is a dedicated analyzer or if it is the last analyzer in a chain of multiple analyzers.
Replace all analyzer covers before continuing.
Initial Startup:
1.  Open the main shuto  valve at the source.
2.  Turn on the AC power at the source.
3.  Once the sample  ow starts, the analyzer will be in normal operating mode. Allow 
analyzer to warm up for 45 minutes.
Dry Down:
Allow 5 to 7 days for the analyzer to dry down and stabilize. At end of dry down period, 
concentration value on display will be stable and recorded data will level o . Zero alarms 
will still be on the display. See Chapter 3 in the manual for more details on dry down and 
information on shortening the dry-down process.
Zero Key:
 
Hold Outputs  Enable or Disable
  Adjust Ofst/Span  Enable or Disable

ANALYZER PARAMETERS
Zero Cycle:
Perform a zero cycle a er the dry down.
  Press Zero key and then the #8 key (arrow down) until you see “Zero.” Press the Enter key to select. 
  Zero cycle takes approximately 2 hours. When zero cycle is complete, the analyzer will adjust the zero o set and automatically return to normal sampling.
