Oxygen Analyzer

Preface

Overview

The Analytical Instruments Model 3010TA Trace Oxygen Analyzer is a

versatile microprocessor-based instrument for detecting parts-per-million
(ppm) levels of oxygen in a variety of background gases. It is a “split archi-
tecture” instrument. This means that a general purpose Control Unit, de-
signed for nonhazardous areas only, remotely controls a specially designed
Analysis Unit, or remote probe, that can operate in a hazardous area.

Part I of this manual covers the Model 3010TA General Purpose flush-

panel and/or rack-mount Control Unit only. This Control Unit is for indoor
use in a nonhazardous environment. The Analysis Units (or Remote Probes)
they control, can be designed for a variety of hazardous environments. Part II
of this manual covers the 3010T Analysis Unit.

Typical Applications

A few typical applications of the Model 3010TA are:

•

Monitoring inert gas blanketing

•

Air separation and liquefaction

•

Chemical reaction monitoring

•

Semiconductor manufacturing

•

Petrochemical process control

•

Quality assurance

•

Gas analysis certification.
