2.4 The M501TRS – Total Reduced Sulfur Converter
The M501TRS oxidizes reduced sulfur compounds to SO2 in a high temperature quartz oven.
Power to the heater is controlled by a front panel mounted programmable temperature controller. Power
to the heater is switched by a solid state switch. An over-temperature alarm contact closure is located on
the rear panel. The alarm set point is adjustable in the temperature controller. The heater temperature is
sensed by a Type K (chromel-alumel) thermocouple probe inserted in the bore alongside the quartz tube.
The quartz tube carrying the sample mixture runs through the core of the heater and is heated by radiation
from electrical heating elements at the heater bore surface. See Figure 2.4 for a layout view of the
converter.
WARNING !
INSURE PROPER LINE VOLTAGE IS SELECTED PRIOR
TO PLUGGING UNIT INTO POWER SOURCE.
WARNING !
THE QUARTZ TUBE AND HEATER ARE VERY HOT
