Thermal Conductivity Transmitter Introduction
Introduction
1.1 Overview
The Teledyne Analytical Instruments 2000 XTC Thermal Conductivity
Transmitter is an instrument designed to analyze the gas concentration of a
binary gas mixture. This manual covers the CENELEC/ATEX approved
model 2000 XTC Thermal Conductivity Transmitter. These units are rated as
intrinsically safe and may be used in Class I, Group A, B, C, D, Div. 1 (North
America) and EEx ib IIC T3 (IEC/Europe) hazardous environments.
1.2 Typical Applications
The 2000 XTC Thermal Conductivity Transmitter is versatile. It is
capable of measuring the gas concentration of a species in a binary or
pseudo-binary mixture of gases over a concentration range. The specific
species and gas mixture as well as the analysis range employed is fixed
at the factory for your specific application. Typical applications for this
transmitter include:
Determining the gas concentration of a binary gas, for
instance, Ar or N
