Chapter 1 _________________________________________________________________________________________ 1.1 Broad Overview The 1316A-1 Multi Gas Monitor simultaneously measures the concentration of up to 5 Gases. The concentration of each gas is expressed as ppm or a volume percentage referenced to dry gas condition. The measurement principles are based on Non Dispersive Infrared (NDIR) and Electrochemical Sensors. A full discussion of these principles is contained in section 1.4.
Chapter 1 _________________________________________________________________________________________ Figure 1.1 Flow diagram of the 1316A-1A-1 Multi Gas Monitor 1.2.2 NDIR Module and UA1372 Module (Optional) Measuring System This block is the heart of the monitor. It contains the Infrared source the sample cell and the Detector with specialized optical filters and processing electronics necessary to do highly accurate measurement of gas concentrations.
Chapter 1 _________________________________________________________________________________________ 1.2.3 Power Supply The power supply included in the 1316A-1 can be directly connected to a wide range of single phase mains supplies and still be able to produce the stable voltages required to keep the monitor within calibration. 1.3 Software Description The BZ 6012 software is menu driven specifically written to control the 1316A-1 monitor.
Chapter 1 _________________________________________________________________________________________ The Multi Gas Monitor INNOVA 1316A-1 is delivered as specified by the Customer. 1.4 NDIR Gas Measurement The Module VM0100A measures the following sample gas concentrations: Carbon Dioxide (CO2), Carbon Monoxide (CO), and Hydro Carbons (HC) either with reference to N-Hexane or Propane (selectable from the BZ6012 Application Software) And the UA1372 is as an example given with an O2, and NO sensor installed.
Chapter 1 _________________________________________________________________________________________ Figure 1.2 Simple NDIR Gas Monitor 1.4.2 The Infrared Transmission Spectra. The concentration of a subject gas in the sample is computed as a function of the light intensity measured by the detector. The figure below characterizes the absorption and band pass filter curves for HC, CO, and CO2 gases. Figure 1.3 Infrared Transmission Spectra for Hexane, Carbon Monoxide and Carbon Dioxide.
Chapter 1 _________________________________________________________________________________________ 1.4.3 The NDIR Module Building blocks Infrared Source A current-regulated infrared (IR) source provides a photon stream in the range of 2 to 5 microns. Light is collimated and directed through the sample cell to the optical block. The source is modulated at 1 Hz, with a duty cycle of 50%. IR SOURCE SAMPLE CELL BAND PASS FILTERS ELECTRONICS Figure 1.4 The Optics of the NDIR Module.
Chapter 1 _________________________________________________________________________________________ µm (2260 cm-1), and the filter associated with Carbon Monoxide is centred on 4.65 µm (2150 cm-1). In the measurement chamber the three beams, which differ in wavelength frequency, each excite their respective gas (if present). The absorption of the incident light will be registered by the Detector.
Chapter 1 _________________________________________________________________________________________ In the Module the IR Detector/Filter Temperature is monitored to set the zero request bit as follows: Zero Request if a ±5°C temperature change has occurred. Ambient Temperature Out Of Range is set when the IR Detector/Filter Temperature is not within its allowed range. Sample Cell Temperature: The Module sample cell temperature is monitored by a thermistor in contact with the sample cell.
Chapter 1 _________________________________________________________________________________________ During a Zero/O2 Span calibration, sample delivery pressure is compared to ambient pressure (see below). If the difference is too great, the Out Flow Fault status bit is set true and the pump is switched Off. 1.4.6 The O2 and NO Measurement O2 and NO gas concentration are measured using electrochemical (fuel cell) sensors.

Chapter 4 _________________________________________________________________________________________ 4.1 Introduction 4.1.1 Factory calibration Multi Gas Monitor –INNOVA 1316A-1 component tolerances result in small, but relevant differences in measurement of a given gas concentration. The IR source, pressure transducers, thermistors, band pass filters, and detectors are subject to these variances. During the Type 1316A-1 manufacturing process, each unit is individually characterized.
Chapter 4 _________________________________________________________________________________________ Figure 4.1. Status Window displaying “Zero required”. During a zero point calibration the sample gas is taken through the Zero inlet on the rear panel of the monitor with a flow rate of 700 ml/min. ambient air is used for the zero calibration. Zero Request The Zero Request (see figure 4.1) is set true under the following conditions: At POR (power on / reset).
Chapter 4 _________________________________________________________________________________________ Purpose Zero calibration compensates for conditions that affect gas concentration measurement. Examples of these conditions are as follows: Changes in ambient temperature. Short-term sample cell contamination caused by inadequate particle filtering. Long-term sample cell contamination caused by deposits on the sample cell wall or windows.

Chapter 4 _________________________________________________________________________________________ 1. Ensure that the monitor has been switched on for at least 30 minutes. 2. When the Main Menu screen is displayed, select Zero / O2 Span from the Bench Command pull-down menu. When the Multi Gas Monitor – INNOVA 1316A-1 receives the Zero command, it checks the system status. When all conditions for zero calibration are met, the Process In Progress is activated (see figure 4.3).

The Zero/O2 Span is started controlled by the BZ6012 going through the following steps: i) ii) The pump is turned OFF and all solenoid valves are deactivated. After a settling delay, the ambient pressure (Atm Press) is measured and stored. iii) The pump is turned ON.
