(CO2 ANALYSER CALIBRATION PROCEDURE.
There are two separate calibration procedures that can be carried out on the DPM72
CO2 analyser:
Display calibration and sensor calibration.
The display calibration enables the user to carry out easy day to day calibration to
compensate for small variations in sensor output. These variations are caused mainly
by ambient temperature and barometric pressure changes
The sensor calibration is carried out at far less frequent intervals (usually 12 months)
and consists of adjusting the sensor itself to bring its operating parameters back within
optimum range. Sensor calibration is best carried out by a technician, access to test
equipment and calibration gasses is required.
DISPLAY CALIBRATION
To calibrate the CO2 display you will need the following:
Zero gas;
Span gas of 80 to 100 % of the range of interest.
Proceed as follows:
First switch on the instrument and leave to stabilise for 30 minutes.
To set ZERO...
Flow a gas known not to contain CO2 through the detector while observing the display
reading. (CO2 free gas can be produced by scrubbing air through a soda lime column if
zero gas is not available)
When the reading has stabilised at its minimum value, scroll through the display
functions using the "SCR" key until "ZEro" is displayed, the display will change after a
Couple of seconds to indicate the programmed value for "ZEro" this should be 0000.
If the programmed value is different from 0000, select the programming mode by
Pressing the digit select key >, the "PGM" LED will start to flash indicating the
programming mode has been selected. Select digits one to four using the digit select
key and use the digit increment key & to change any digit that does not read zero.
If"ZEro" is correct, select the programming mode by pressing the digit select key , the
"PGM" LED will start to flash indicating the programming mode has been selected and
press "ENT" to enter the calibration.
Drawing No: A20-80-10 Page 12 of 25 Rev No: 2DPM72 coz
To set SPAN...
Flow a span gas of known concentration in the range of interest through the sensor
and allow the display reading to stabilise.
Scroll through the display functions using the "SCR" key until "Pan" is displayed, the
display will change after a couple of seconds to the value programmed for "SPan" this
should be the value for the span gas in use at the time.
If different, select the programming mode by pressing the digit select key Pr, the
“PGM" LED will start to flash indicating the programming mode has been selected.
Select digits one to four in turn using the digit select key and use the digit increment
key A to change the digits until the value of the span gas is displayed, when the
reading is correct press "ENT" to enter the calibration.
If the value for "SPan" is correct simply select "PGM" by pressing the digit select key
then "ENT" to enter the calibration.
C02 display calibration is now complete.
PROGRAMMING PROCEDURE TO SET UP ALARMS
When monitoring a toxic gas like Carbon Dioxide it is important to set up alarms close
to the maximum safe gas concentration allowed, so that the operator is alerted of any
deviations that require corrective action
For instance:
Program SP1 to operate at the safe level by scrolling through until SP1 is displayed
and using the digit select > and increment key A to program the alarm value.
Program SP2 to operate at -0100 by the same method. Since a reading of -0100 will
only be produced by incorrect sensor calibration or a fault in the wiring to the sensor
this will provide a safeguard against faulty wiring and sensors.
‘As we require SP1 to operate on an increasing input value and SP2 to operate on a
decreasing input value we also need to select output action code 1 (SP1 invert SP2
normal) see table 3. |
To select output action 1 scroll through until "oA" is displayed, use the digit select key
D> to select digit 4 and use the increment key AA to make it read 1, press "ENT" to
enter the code.
‘As hysteresis is not usually required the HYS function should be set to zero if not
already so. |
‘An alatm will now sound when the CO2 level either rises above SP1 (high alarm)
falls below SP2 (sensor fault)

GAS SAMPLE CONDITIONING
The gas sample entering the sensor must be free of excessive water vapour, otherwise
the desiccant will need frequent replacement.
A water trap and coalescing filter should be fitted in the sample line of any gas sample
likely to be contaminated with moisture.
The sensor electrical response time is about 10 seconds and so there is no point in
passing sample gas through the sensor at a very high rate.
The CO2 Analyser module is fitted with a front panel mounted desiccator filled with an
indicating desiccator called "DRIERITE”, this should be replaced when the colour
changes from blue to pink. This high quality desiccating agent does not retain CO2 like
silica gel, if silica gel is used instead of DRIERITE zero and span calibration will take
considerably longer because the CO2 retained in the silica gel will slowly be released
during zero and absorbed during span, thus increasing the amount of time taken for
the reading to stabilise.
C02 SENSOR CALIBRATION
Introduction & Principle of Operation
The sensor consists of an infrared optical bench and printed circuit board with signal
conditioning electronics, the sensor is powered from a 24V DC power supply.
The sensor output is calibrated to output a current in the range 4 to 20 mA. to
represent Carbon Dioxide fraction in the range 0 - 5000ppm
The sensor uses a double beam optical system in which broad band infrared radiation
from a single source is reflected down a gas cell. The radiation then passes through
two wavelength selecting thin film filters, one is chosen to have transmission
corresponding with the absorption band characteristic to Carbon Dioxide, the other with
a band that is not. A pair of matched detectors sensitive to a wide range of infrared
radiation, but only able to receive at the wavelength determined by the thin film filters,
are mounted behind the selective filters.
The signal from the CO2 sensitive detector is used for sample measurement while the
other is used to provide a reference signal. The presence of gas with an absorption
band fitting the filter with the CO2 passband, reduces the radiation signal to that
detector by an amount depending upon the gas concentration. The signal from the
reference detector is unchanged and so by processing the difference in the outputs
from the two detectors a signal proportional to CO2 concentration is obtained.
The signal is amplified and sent to a microprocessor that carries out linearisation
before converting the signal back to a current proportional to C02 concentration.
Note The long term stability of the sensor is very good, adjustment of pre-set Zero and
Span should not need to be carried out more frequently than every 12 months.
Drawing No: A20-80-10 Page 14 of 25 Rev No: 2DPM72 coz
Warm up
The sensor will be ready to operate 30 seconds after switch on, during that time the
microprocessor goes through a self test procedure and the output from the sensor is 0
mA. the display will read negative under-range until the self test is finished.
Sensor calibration
Ifthe sensor appears to be out of calibration, no attempt should be made to reset the
zero and span pots on the CO2 sensor PCB unless the following is available:
‘Accurate calibration gas (better than 2% accuracy) of between 4000 and 5000 ppm
C02, zero gas, temperature of the calibration workshop, ambient barometric pressure
in millibars.
Before setting the span of the sensor the calibration gas should be corrected for
atmospheric pressure and ambient temperature variations using the following formula:
‘Actual Gas concentration = Cylinder concentration X atmospheric pressure mbars 298
4013.25 ‘Ambient temp °C + 273
The CO2 sensor should be calibrated with the dryer tower empty to save time since the
dessicator will introduce a time delay in getting the calibration gas to the sensor.
‘Allow enough time for the sensor to become thoroughly flushed though with the
calibration gas before making an adjustment
Set zero first for 4 mA. output from the sensor or 0000 on a previously calibrated
display (for display calibration procedure see fault finding guide)
Set span to the corrected calibration gas figure in ppm on the display or in mA. as}
shown above.
Before setting the span make sure that the sensor zero is correctly set. Use aj
calibration gas as close to full scale as possible. Pass the known mixture at a low flo
(about 20/hour) directly into the sample cell and set the ‘SPAN’ pre-set so that the
meter reading corresponds. |
Adjust the Span pot on the PCB so that the output at the 4 to 20 mA. terminals is spar
gas ppm./ 5000 * 16 mA. +4 mA.
For example if the span gas in use is 3500 ppm =
3500
tt amA. = 15.2 mA.
5000 / 16mA
the output should be 15.2 mA.
Note: If the zero and span pots cannot bring the sensor back into calibration the
complete unit should be retumed to S.A.T. Systems for service.
Drawing No: A20-80-10 Page 15 of 26 Rev No: 2DPM72 Coz
ANALOGUE OUTPUT CALIBRATION
An optional analogue output card can be fitted to the instrument, various voltage and
current ranges are available. The following output options are available at ordering
time:
Oto 100mV
Oto 1 Volt
0 to 10 Volt
Oto 1mA,
Oto 10mA
4 to 20 mA
The analogue output is normally used to drive chart recorders or data logging systems.
The full scale output of this option is determined when the instrument is ordered but
can be scaled to match any display value.
The analogue output can be scaled to suit the operating range of the instrument in the
following manner:
To output zero when the display reads zero set OPL to 0000
To output full scale, at the analogue output, when the display reads full scale set OPH
to the full scale reading of the instrument.
Eg.
To scale the analogue output of an instrument which has a Maximum reading of 1000,
set the OPH to 1000. Similarly if the Maximum instrument reading is 5000 set the OPH
to 5000,
However if the Maximum instrument reading has a decimal point, ignore the decimal
point. i.e. Maximum instrument reading = 100.0
OPH setting = 1000
The actual value of current or voltage that is output from the analogue output will
depend on the factory configuration of the unit (See above range options).

FAULT FINDING GUI
Initial checks.
Remove top cover of unit,
Check internal components are physically undamaged.
Power up with correct voltage (check label near power in socket)
Check that the display digits illuminate, if not check fuse in holder (part of power input
socket)
The display will indicate negative under range and the alarms may operate randomly
for the first thirty seconds after power up as the sensor does a self test during that
period. After the self test the display should indicate the CO2 concentration in the
sensor.
Ifthe display illuminates, but gives an incorrect reading after the self test, check that
the CO2 sensor is functioning:
A light (the sensor infra-red source) should be seen to flash about three times a second
in the end of the sample tube (silver tube fitted to the CO2 sensor PCB in the bottom of
the case) closest to the front of the unit.
If the sensor light is not flashing check the power supply to the sensor by measuring
the voltage at the orange terminal strip fitted to the front of the sensor PCB. Measure
the voltage between the terminal fitted with the red wire (+24 Volts DC) and the’
terminal fitted with the black wire (0 Volts). The Voltage should be in the range 19 to 26:
Volts, if below 19 check your mains supply. If zero check the CO2 power supply fuse
on the PCB fitted to the right side of the unit.
If the sensor is receiving power as described above but the infra-red source lamp is not}
flashing it should be returned to SAT Systems for service.
Sensor to display connections and signals.
The display of the CO2 analyser with an ESI sensor has a nominal input range of 4 to}
20 mA (3.95 to 20.5 actual). The sensor outputs a current in the range 4 to 20 mA. for
C02 concentrations of 0 to 5000 ppm (0.5%).
The sensor is connected to the display by two wires: a black wire (negative signal
goes to terminal 3 on the display input terminal strip and a white wire (positive signal
goes to terminal 4 on the display input terminal strip.
Operation of the sensor can be checked by disconnecting the black and white wire
from the display and connecting a milliamp meter to these wires and measuring the
current output from the sensor.
The sensor will not output anything for the first thirty seconds after power up as it doe:
a self test during that period. After the self test the current measured should be in the
range 4 to 20 mA. depending on the CO2 concentration in the sensor.
Drawing No: A20-80-10 Page 17 of 25 Rev No: 2DPM72. coz
Display calibration.
When a fault is suspected in the instrument, the display should first be checked and
calibrated independently with a milliamp source to allow it to be used later to check the
correct operation of the sensor.
You will need a calibrated miliamp source that will output 4 and 20 miliamps.
Disconnect the sensor from the display by removing the black and white wires from
terminals 3 and 4 of the display, make sure that these wires do not short together or to
other parts of the equipment while you are doing the test.
Connect the milliamp source to the display input terminals (terminal 3 negative,
terminal 4 positive)
Power up the analyser, apply 4 mA. using the current source, the display should
indicate 0000. Ifit does, apply 20 mA. the display should indicate 5000.
Ifthe above display indication is obtained the display calibration is OK.
If the displayed values differ from the above re-calibrate the display using the following
procedure:
To set display zero...
Apply 4 mA. to the display input.
Scroll through the display functions using the "SCR" key until "ZEro" is displayed, the
display will change after a couple of seconds to indicate the programmed value for
"ZEro" this should be 0000.
Select the programming mode by pressing the digit select key B>, the "PGM" LED will
start to flash indicating the programming mode has been selected and press "ENT" to
enter the zero calibration.
If the display shows a programmed value for zero that is different from 0000, select the
programming mode by pressing the digit select key >, the "PGM" LED will start to
flash indicating the programming mode has been selected, Select digits one to four
using the digit select key and use the digit increment key A to change any digit that
does not read zero.
When you press the “ENT” the calibration is stored and the display should continue to
indicate 0000 while 4 mA. is applied to the input.
If, at any time, the display will not allow you to scroll past Zero or Span the calibration
data stored in it's memory is probably corrupt. You can clear the display memory by
switching off the unit and powering up while holding both the SCR and ENT buttons on
the display depressed. This will reset all the stored parameters to zero and allow new
calibration data to be entered.
Drawing No: A20-80-10 Page 18 of 25 Rev No:2[Link]
To set display full scale...
‘Apply 20 mA. to the display input using the calibration source.
Scroll through the display funetions using the "SCR" key until "SPan" is displayed, the
display will change after a couple of seconds to the value programmed for "SPan” this
should be 5000 to match the 20 mA. full scale input calibration
If the value for Span is not 5000, select the programming mode by pressing the digit
select key D>, the "PGM" LED will start to flash indicating the programming mode has
been selected. Select digits one to four in turn using the digit select key and use the
digit increment key && to change the digits unti the displayed value is 5000, when the
reading is correct press "ENT" to enter the calibration.
If the value for "SPan" is 5000 simply select "PGM" by pressing the digit select key
then "ENT" to enter the calibration. The display should indicate 5000 (+/- 1 digit).
When the mA. source is removed the display will show -1 indicating negative under
range, this is normal
‘The display calibration is now complete, Power down the unit, reconnect the sensor to
terminals 3 and 4, switch on. The display will indicate negative under range for 30
seconds then will change to indicate the CO2 concentration in the sensor.
If after re-calibrating the display, the analyser does not read correctly (within its
specifications) when a calibration gas is passed through the instrument. Check the|
sensor output current as described previously.
You can calculate the mA. reading that should be output for a given gas concentration!
using the following formula:
If the span gas in use is 3500 ppm (0.35%):
3500
+ 4mA = 15.2 mA.
5000 / 16mA
The sensor output should be =15.2 mA. (uncorrected for atmospheric pressure and
temperature).

The last display in the line should have LK2 fitted for proper termination of the line.
The protocol used is as follows:
Incoming data is continually monitored by the display.
Each byte of data is formatted as an eight bit word without parity, preceded by one
start bit and followed by one stop bit.
Data format.
To signify commencement of a new block of data, the HEX number FFH is used as a
frame character, followed by the station number of the unit under interrogation. (The
station number is entered into the display unit under the “SdSt" mnemonic in the range
0 to 254).
The display acts upon incoming data only if its own station number immediately follows
the FFH character.
New data must be received as a string of four nibbles (bits 7-4 set to zero) which are
assembled into two bytes and written into the variable list within the display. The most
significant nibble must be received first and the last nibble must have the most
Significant bit (bit 7) set to indicate the end of data. This is followed by the checksum.

The data transmitted from the display is always sent as complete bytes. The station
number precedes the data and the checksum follows the data
Operation
‘There are two modes of operation, namely data requests from the host and data
changes. Data requests from the display consist of either a complete dump of the
Variables stored in the display RAM or the display reading.
Data changes consist of writing new data to the display variables, thus changing
parameters such as set points and calibration ete.
An acknowledgement message is returned from the display to indicate that the new
data has been acted upon.
if the display disagrees with the received data, a not acknowledge (NAK) message is
returned.
Only requests for data are documented in this manual, those who need further

DESCRIPTION
The model DPM72CO2 Carbon Dioxide analyser is a compact 1/2 rack module that
includes the following components:
4. GAS SAMPLE DRYER.
The gas drier is included to prevent moisture reaching the CO2 transducer optics. The
drier is filled with indicating desiccant and is fitted with a window to allows the operator
to check by colour change if replacement is required.
2. SAMPLE FLOW-METER
‘The sample flow-meter provides a visual indication of gas flow through the instrument.
‘A regulating valve is fitted to the flow-meter to allow fine adjustment to the sample flow.
3. CO2 INFRARED TRANSDUCER.
Works on the principle that carbon dioxide absorbs infra-red radiation of a specific
wavelength.
By passing a beam of light through the gas sample and measuring the absorption of
the light beam at two different wavelengths, _a signal is derived that is proportional to
the amount of CO2 in the gas sample.
4, DIGITAL READ-OUT AND ALARM UNIT.
The signal from the CO2 sensor is scaled and displayed on a DPM 72 multi-function}
display module to read in parts per million (ppm) or percent CO2.
The functions provided by the DPM 72 display are as follows:

PROGRAMMABLE DISPLAY FUNCTIONS.
By repeatedly pressing the "SCR" key the user can step through each programmable
function in tur. The value or status appropriate to the function is displayed
automatically. When the P> key is pressed the instrument goes into the program mode
allowing the user to alter the pre-set data with the A key if required. The "ENT" or
"SCR" keys record the new data in memory. A summary of programmable functions is
listed in table 1.
Note: Function codes are displayed in a predetermined order by pressing "SCR". If the
required code is inadvertently passed, press "ENT" and cycle through until the desired
code is displayed again. Do not press "ENT" while the program LED is flashing if you
do not want to change the selected function, if the program mode is accidentally
selected, wait for the program LED to time out, this takes about 1 minute, you will then
| be returned to the input reading without having made any changes.
SPAN (SPAn)
Provides automatic display scaling, by reading a known calibration input and scaling to
a user programmed display value. To change scaling select SPAn, apply known input
signal and enter display value required for that input.
ZERO (ZEro)
Provides automatic display zeroing, by reading a known calibration input and scaling to.
a user programmed display value, normally zero. To apply auto zero select ZEro,
apply known input signal and enter display value for that input.
Note: Input signal for ZEro must be less than that for SPAn and value for ZEro less.
than SPAn.
‘SET POINT SELECTION (SP1 SP2)
Press "SCR" until set point code is displayed ie. SP1 or SP2; wait until code is
replaced by the value of the set point.
Press > to enter programming mode and to select digits, increment digits as required
using A until the desired value is displayed. Press "ENT" to set the data in memory
and return to display mode.
HYSTERESIS SETTING (HYS)
Hysteresis values will be automatically applied to any set points (SP) entered.
Hysteresis is set in real display terms. For normal operation, SP output relay and audio
alarm is energised when input is below SP and de-energised when exceeded. The
relay and alarm energise again when the input is less than SP minus the hysteresis,
value. For inverted operation, the sequence is reversed. To change hysteresis display
HYS and enter value.

OUTPUT LATCH (oL)
The output latch function enables either SP1 or SP2 or both to be latched until reset by
the communication port when fitted.
To enable output latching select OL and enter code number as detailed in table 2.
OUTPUT ACTION (0A)
The output action function allows the user to set the output relay and alarm to operate
in a normal or inverted mode. This enables the setting up of window alarms.
To change the output action select oA and enter code number as detailed in table 3.
OUTPUT LOW AND OUTPUT HIGH (oPL & oPH)
Used to scale the analogue output signal when the analogue output facility is fitted
See page 14 for details.
INPUT SELECT (IP)
‘The input select function is used to select linearisation and scaling software for special
functions. IP is set to zero in this configuration.
DECIMAL POINT SELECTION (dP)
The decimal point function enables the placing of a decimal point on the display. To)
position the decimal point select (dP) and enter code number as detailed in table 4.
SERIAL DEVICE STATION NUMBER (SdSt)
Enables the display unit to be programmed with a station number in the range 0 to 254
for identification when the serial communication facility is fitted
To change the station number select (SdSt) and input the station number required.
DATA AVERAGE (da)
Selects the data averaging period. The input reading is averaged over an adjustable
period of time to prevent display fluctuations. The data average is programmable in the
Tange 0.1 to 25.6 seconds by code number as detailed in table 5.
INPUT VALUE (InP)
Is the current display value that the display retums to by default after scrolling through
the functions.
