8.3 Control Gas Sampling Based on Time – CR1000

The SDM-CD8S is ideal for controlling low power DC operated solenoid
valves such as might be used to control a manifold as part of a gas sampling
system. This example shows one way to do that.

8.3.1 Terminology

Site: A site may be the physical site where the air is sampled (i.e. intake or
chamber) or a connection to a calibration gas. Each site has a unique
SDMCD8S/valve setting that configures the manifold to connect gas from that
site to the sample path of the gas analyzer. There are 8 connections to the “site
selection” manifold. The numbers 1 through 8 identify the sites. The site
numbers are the same as the number of the intake on the manifold and the
number of the SDMCD8S relay controlling that valve. Sites 1 – 6 are
connected to sample intakes to measure a atmospheric profile and sites 7 and 8
are used for calibration gases.

Site Sequence: The sequence in which the sites are measured is determined
by the SiteSequence array. The sites are measured in the sequence that the site
numbers are entered in this array, not necessarily in order of site number.

The SiteSequence array also allows a site to be measured multiple times within
the sequence. For some measurements it is necessary to measure calibration
gases frequently (e.g., the concentration of various isotopes of CO

gas analyzer.)
