Chapter 3 - Operation This section describes the updates and corrections that apply to the
“Operation” chapter.
Power-Up Screen Replace the Thermo Electron Corporation power-up screen with the
Thermo Scientific power-up screen.
Status Bar In the “Run Screen” section, add the following that describes the new
status bar icons.
“The status bar displays the time, the password (lock) icon, service
(wrench) icon, alarm (bell) icon, and optional zero/span sample solenoid
valve status, if installed.”
Change Status Bar Change the “Alarm” references on the status bar to the bell icon or remove
“Alarm” to Bell Icon the reference. The “Alarm” references have been replaced with status bar
icons described previously in this document.
Degree Symbol Screens which show temperature values should include the degree symbol
“°” not just the “C” for Celsius units. The degree symbol has been added to
all screens that were missing it.
Update Datalogging Settings The iSeries instruments include a built-in data logging capability as a
standard feature. The operator is allowed to create two different types of
records, which for historical reasons are named lrecs and srecs. Each record
can contain up to 32 different fields or data items, and records can be
created at user-defined intervals ranging from 1 to 60 minutes.
Record generation is tied to the instrument’s real-time clock. For example,
if the logging period for srecs is set to 30 minutes, a new srec will be
generated on every hour and every half hour (10:00, 10:30, 11:00 …).
Lrecs and srecs can be interleaved. For example, an srec containing just the
current concentration level could be generated every five minutes while an
lrec containing a full set of diagnostic data could be generated once every
hour.
The analyzer’s computer system includes three megabytes of flash memory
which is enough to store a full lrec containing 32 data items and a full srec
containing 32 items once each minute for a week (>20,000 total records).
If logging is limited to the minimum content of date, time, concentration
Add Span and BKG Add “Span” and “BKG” to default lrec and output lists.
Reset to Default Content Replace the “Reset to Default Content” description, under Datalogging,
with the following:
The Reset to Default Content screen is used to reset all of the datalogging
field items to default values for the selected record type. For more
information, about selecting the content of logged data fields, see “Select
Content” described previously.

Heated Kicker
Heated Hydrocarbon The hydrocarbon kicker removes hydrocarbons from the gas stream while
leaving the SO2 concentration unaffected. It operates on a selective
Kicker (Optional) permeation principle using differential pressure to force hydrocarbon
molecules to pass through the tube wall. The differential pressure is created
across the tube wall as sample gas passes through a capillary tube which
reduces its pressure. The sample gas is then fed to the shell side of the
hydrocarbon kicker.
The optional heated hydrocarbon kicker is used in applications requiring
more efficiency than the standard kicker. The heated kicker operates at the
same temperature as the optical bench and requires no additional power.
