Oxymitter 4000

When installing the pressure switch,
do not overtighten. Damage to the
solenoid may occur.

9. Install new pressure switch (12). Be

careful not to overtighten. Connect the
leads to the proper terminals on the
pressure switch.

10. Carefully install the board and spacer

assembly into manifold (5) by aligning
spacers (9) with the mounting holes on
the manifold and securing with screws
(11). Ensure o-rings (8) are installed
between the spacers and the manifold
surface.

11. Install manifold cover (14), and secure

with manifold cover lock (6) and screw
(7).

12. Turn on the calibration gases at the

cylinders.

e. Check Valve Replacement

Check valve (19, Figure 9-15) may stick or
become plugged over time. Replace when
necessary. If condensation deposits are
noted upon removal, consider insulating the
check valve.

f. Pressure Regulator (Optional)

Maintenance

1. Pressure Adjustments. Reference air

pressure regulator (8, Figure 9-15) is
factory set to 20 psi (138 kPa). Adjust
using the knob on top of the pressure
regulator if necessary.

Do not use fingers to release valve
stem. The valve may release air at high
pressures and cause injury.

2. Condensation Drain. To drain excess

moisture from the filter bowl of refer-
ence air pressure regulator (8), use a
screwdriver or comparable tool to peri-
odically release valve stem on the bot-
tom of the regulator.

g. Flowmeter

Adjustments

1. Calibration Gas Flowmeter. Calibration

gas flowmeter (17, Figure 9-15) regu-
lates the calibration gas flow and must
be set to 5 scfh. However, only adjust
the flowmeter to 5 scfh after placing a
new diffusion element on the end of the
Oxymitter 4000. Adjusting the flowme-
ter at any other time can pressurize the
cell and bias the calibration.

In applications with a heavy dust load-
ing, the O

probe diffusion element

may become plugged over time, caus-
ing a slower speed of response. The
best way to detect a plugged diffusion
element is to note the time it takes the
Oxymitter 4000 to return to the normal
process reading after the last calibra-
tion gas is removed and the calibration
gas line is blocked off. A plugged ele-
ment also can be indicated by a slightly
lower reading on the flowmeter.

Change the diffusion element when the
calibration gas flowmeter reads slightly
lower during calibration or when the re-
sponse time to the process flue gases
becomes very slow. Each time the diffu-
sion element is changed, reset the cali-
bration gas flowmeter to 5 scfh and
calibrate the Oxymitter 4000. For more
information on changing the diffusion
element, refer to paragraph 12.

2. Reference Air Flowmeter (Optional).

Reference air flowmeter (16, Figure
9-15)
regulates the reference air and
must be set to 2 scfh. Adjust the flow
with the knob on the bottom of the ref-
erence air flowmeter when necessary.
