Introduction

The Teledyne Analytical Instruments (TAI) Model 3190 is a micropro-

cessor-based trace oxygen analyzer for real-time measurement of trace

amounts of oxygen in inert gases, or in a wide variety of gas mixtures. It

features simple operation, fast response, and a compact, rugged construction.

Typical applications of the Model 3190 are monitoring nitrogen generators

and inert gas blanketing applications.

The main features of the analyzer include:

•High resolution, accurate readings of oxygen content from

0-10 ppm through 0-25 %. Large, bright, light-emitting-diode

meter readout.

•Simple pushbutton controls.

•Nylon cell holder.

•Advanced Micro-Fuel Cell, for trace analysis, has a six (6)

months warranty and expected lifetime.

•Unaffected by oxidizable gases.

•Fast response and recovery time.

•Microprocessor based electronics: 8-bit CMOS microprocessor

with on-board RAM and 16 kB ROM.

•Two user selectable ranges (from 0-10 ppm through

0-9,999 ppm) allow best match to users process and equipment.

•Air-calibration range for convenient spanning at 20.9 %.

•Operator can select Autoranging, which allows the analyzer to

automatically select the proper preset range for a given

measurement, or he can lock the analyzer onto a single range.
