SECTION 1
DESCRIPTION AND SPECIFICATIONS
1-1 OVERVIEW
This manual describes the Trace Oxygen
(TO2) Analyzer Module of Rosemount Ana-
lytical's NGA 2000 Series of gas analysis
components.
The TO2 Analyzer Module is designed to con-
tinuously determine the concentration of trace
oxygen in a flowing gaseous mixture. The
concentration is expressed in parts-per-
million.
The TO2 Analyzer Module is configured as a
shelf-mount module, designed to be installed
external from the platform on an associated
shelf capable of holding two modules side-by-
side, with gas connections made from the
rear. All electronics relative to sample detec-
tion and conditioning are included in this
module.
1-2 TYPICAL APPLICATIONS
The TO2 Analyzer Module has specific appli-
cations in the following areas:
• Trace oxygen in product nitrogen
and argon streams from air
separation plants
• Trace oxygen in inerting atmos-
pheres for heat treat furnaces
• Trace oxygen in glove-box appli-
cations
1-3 METHOD OF MEASUREMENT
Coulometric Principle
The TO2 Analyzer Module uses the cou-
lometric principle of oxygen detection. This
technology is based on the fact that oxygen in
the sample is reduced by an electrochemical
reaction. This reduction occurs at the cathode
and results in the generation of hydroxyl ions.
These hydroxyl ions migrate to the anode
where they are oxidized to reform oxygen.
The oxidation reaction generates four elec-
trons which in turn migrate to the anode to
participate in the reduction reaction:
(Cathode Reaction)
O
2
+ 2 H
2
O + 4 e
-
→ 4 OH
-
(Anode Reaction)
4 OH
-
→ O
2
+ 2 H
2
O + 4 e
-
A polarizing voltage of approximately 1.3 VDC
is applied between the anode and cathode to
drive the oxidation and reduction reactions.
The resulting current flow produced by the
flow of electrons is directly proportional to the
oxygen content in the sample gas.
1-4 FEATURES
Among the features included in the TO2 Ana-
lyzer Module are:
• Quick start feature
• Electrolyte level alarm
• High oxygen protection circuit
with alarm
• Sample flow indication.

INSTALLATION
WARNING.
Before starting to install this equip-
ment, read the Safety Summary in
the Preface section of this manual.
Failure to follow the safety instruc-
tions could result in serious injury or
death.
2-1 UNPACKING
If the Trace Oxygen (TO2) Analyzer Module is
received as a separate unit, carefully examine
the shipping carton and contents for signs of
damage. Immediately notify the shipping car-
rier if the carton or contents is damaged. Re-
tain the carton and packing material until all
components associated with the TO2 Ana-
lyzer Module are operational.
2-2 ELECTROLYTE
Before installation of the TO2 Analyzer Mod-
ule, electrolyte must be added to the Sensor.
Follow the procedure described in Section 2-
2a.
After addition of electrolyte, locate the ana-
lyzer module on an appropriate mounting
surface and connect the network cable to ei-
ther the NETWORK 1 or NETWORK 2 con-
nection on the Analyzer Module, and the
NETWORK connection on the Platform net-
work I/O port. (See Figure 2-1 and Figure
2-4.)
a. Electrolyte Addition
Before adding electrolyte to the Sensor, it
is recommended to check the Sensor for
possible leakage caused by damage in
shipment. To check the Sensor for leak-
age, remove the top cover of the Analyzer
Module and locate and remove the 5
mounting screws which hold the Sensor
Assembly (Sensor, flow meter, plumbing,
inlet/outlet fittings) to the module (see
Figure 4-1). Be careful not to lose these
screws as they have metric threads.
Carefully lift out the Sensor assembly and
remove from the analyzer module. Place
on a flat surface and remove the black
Sensor cover by unscrewing counter-
clockwise.
Add distilled or deionized water to the
Sensor to the maximum level indication
on the Sensor reservoir. Let Sensor
stand for approximately 15 minutes and
check for leaks around the base of the
reservoir, and at the seams and corners.
If a leak is found, contact the factory be-
fore proceeding. Drain the Sensor.
Fill the Sensor with one bottle of electro-
lyte supplied with the analyzer module.
Use the entire contents of the bottle.
NOTE
Do not add water. The volume and
concentration of the bottled electrolyte
is pre-measured.
Reinstall the black Sensor cover and
carefully reinstall the Sensor Assembly
inside the Analyzer Module. Do not tilt
the Sensor Assembly excessively as
electrolyte may leak out.
2-3 LOCATION
(See Figure 2-2) The TO2 Analyzer Module
comes standard with mounting ears for easy
installation on flat, horizontal surfaces. Install
the TO2 Analyzer Module in a clean, weather-
proofed, vibration-free location free from ex-
treme temperature variations and moisture.
For best results, install the instrument near
the sample stream to minimize sample trans-
port time.
Operating ambient temperature is 0 °C to 45
°C (32 °F to 81 °F). Temperature change
should not exceed 10 °C (18 °F) per hour.

2-2 Installation Rosemount Analytical Inc. A Division of Emerson Process Management
Model NGA 2000 TO2
The same temperature restrictions apply to
the location of the zero and span gas cylin-
ders.
2-4 GASES
a. Requirements
The TO2 Analyzer Module requires only a
standard of accurately known composition
for use as a span gas. The span gas
should be supplied from a cylinder
equipped with a clean, metallic dia-
phragm, two-stage regulator. A shutoff
valve is recommended.
Calibration Gases
The TO2 module does not require routine
zero calibration. The zero is factory set
and does not experience routine drift.
Over long periods of time, the zero may
experience minor drift. For low ppm
range analyzers, you may wish to check
the zero at one year intervals. Oxygen-
free nitrogen is recommended for use as
zero gas. This gas is certified to <0.5
ppm oxygen and can be improved by
passing the zero gas through an oxygen
scrubber such as Millipore™ Waferpure
or Semigas Nanochem® resin purifiers. A
mixture of trace oxygen in a background
of nitrogen is recommended as span gas.
For maximum accuracy, the concentration
of trace oxygen in the span gas should be
as high as possible for the range of
measurement.
b. Sample
The sample must be clean and dry before
entering the Analyzer Module. Sample
should be filtered for particulates down to
two microns, and should have a dew point
at least 5 °C (13 °F) below the coldest ex-
pected ambient temperature.
c. Pressure
Constant between 13.8 and 69 hPa -
gauge (0.2 and 1.0 psig) sample inlet
pressure is recommended. If a needle
valve is used upstream of the Analyzer
Module to control flow, the inlet pressure
to the needle valve should not exceed
345 hPa (5 psig). A constant sample flow
rate between 1.0 to 3.0 SCFH (0.5 to 1.5
l/min) is recommended for best results.
The Analyzer Module must vent to at-
mosphere to avoid back pressure influ-
ences on the oxygen reading.
2-5 GAS CONNECTIONS
(See Figure 2-3. ) Connect inlet and outlet
lines for sample to appropriately labeled fit-
tings on the rear panel. SAMPLE IN and
SAMPLE OUT are 1/4-inch ferrule-type com-
pression fittings. Zero and span gases should
be introduced at the SAMPLE IN fitting at
normal sample inlet flow rate.
Metallic tubing is recommended for the sam-
ple line. The use of plastic, Teflon, or other
non-metallic tubing can result in ambient oxy-
gen permeation through the tubing causing
higher than expected reading. Exhaust tub-
ing should be 1/4 inch (6.3 mm) or larger, and
can be metallic or non-metallic.
CAUTION.
GAS OVERPRESSURE
At no time should sample, zero or span
gas inlet pressure exceed 69 hPa - gauge
(1.0 psig). Damage to the Sensor may oc-
cur if this pressure level is exceeded.
CAUTION.
SAMPLE FLOW
Do not test the sample pressure by block-
ing the exhaust. When the pressure is re-
leased the sudden surge of flow will spin
the internal flowmeter off its bearings and
destroy it.
