Basic Operating Description
The Model MGA 6010 has been designed for the simultaneous analysis of CO, CO
2
and CH
4
in heat-treat
furnace atmosphere gases. It uses a color touch screen display / operator interface for data entry and for
viewing. Selections can be made on the screen using a finger or a stylus. Avoid the use of sharp objects
(pens, paperclips, screwdrivers, etc.) as they can cause permanent damage to the screen and void the
warranty of the instrument.
After the power switch is turned on, it will take approximately 30 seconds for the MGA 6010 software to
automatically load. Once the software is properly loaded, the instrument is ready to use. Power to the
MGA can be turned off by tripping the circuit breaker inside the enclosure. Before the breaker is tripped,
select the “Shut down interface” option from the main menu and allow the screen to close the MGA
software in a controlled manner. Doing so will help minimize any damage to data that could be done by an
unexpected shutdown.
Hydrogen Cell Note:
For highest H
2
accuracy, it is recommended that the instrument be powered on for 60 minutes before
measurements are taken.
