Teledyne T803 3.3.2. PNEUMATIC CONNECTIONS

Getting Started Teledyne API T803 CO2/O2 Analyzer Operation Manual

RS-485 CONNECTION
As delivered from the factory, COM2 is configured for RS-232 communications.
This port can be reconfigured for operation as a non-isolated, half-duplex RS-485
port. Using COM2 for RS-485 communication will disable the USB port. To
reconfigure this port for RS-485 communication, please contact the factory.

CAUTION
GENERAL SAFETY HAZARD: CO2
While CO2 itself is not toxic, in sufficient concentrations it can be an irritant and
an asphyxiant.
Obtain a Material Safety Data Sheet for CO2 and any other hazardous components
of sample and calibration gases, and follow the prescribed safety guidelines.
Do not vent sample gases into the immediate vicinity of the analyzer nor into any
enclosed areas.
CAUTION
GENERAL SAFETY HAZARD: O2
While O2 is itself not toxic, the sample gas measured by, and in some cases the
calibration gases used with the T803 can contain other components that are
hazardous (e.g. NO, NO2, SO2, CO, etc).
Obtain a Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) for each such gas. Read and
rigorously follow the safety guidelines described there.
Do not vent sample gases containing hazardous components into enclosed areas.
3.3.2.1. CALIBRATION GASES
3.3.2.2. ZERO GAS
Zero gas is similar in chemical composition to the earth’s atmosphere but
scrubbed of all components that might affect the analyzer’s readings. Teledyne
API recommends using pure N2 when calibrating the zero point of your O2 and
CO2 sensors.
