2 Application

The FIDAMAT 5E is an analyzer for measuring total hydrocarbons. It operates according to the

principle of flame ionization.

The analyzer is suitable for measuring all gaseous hydrocarbons. A heated line must be used for

the connection to prevent condensation and adsorption in the gas line.

Warning! Explosivegasmixturesmust not bemeasuredusingtheFIDAMAT.The ana-

lyzermustnotbeusedinpotentiallyexplosiveatmospheres.

3 Design

The device is available either as a bench-top unit fitted in a housing, or without a housing for

installation in a 19-inch rack or 19-inch cabinet.

TheFIDAMATcomprisestwomainsections,theanalyzersectionandtheelectronicswithfrontpanel

controls.

Analyzersection

The analyzer section consists of the oven with sample gas filter, detector chamber and various

restrictors.The ovenis accessiblefrom thesideto enablemodifications orrepairs tobe carried out

in the installed condition without loosening the electric connections or gas piping connections.The

sample gas filter is accessible from the front when the front panel has been folded out.

The analyzer section also contains the diaphram pump with separate oven for the pump head.The

pump can be dismounted from the front without having to open the oven.

The analyzer section also contains pressure regulators, solenoid valves, pressure sensors and a

flowsensor.

Electronics

The electronics consist of the input board which is integrated into the front panel, the motherboard

with preamplifier board and the control board.

Themotherboard contains theEPROMs forthe software, theEEPROM for theparameter sets and

the switch for the write-protected area on the EEPROM.

4 Mode of Operation

Electrons are released when hydrocarbons are combusted in a hydrogen flame. These electrons

are collected at an electrode by means of an electric field and measured using a highly sensitive

amplifier. The current is proportional to the quantity of organically-bound C atoms in the sample

gas.

A diaphram pump draws the sample gas and generates a specific pressure. The sample gas is

passed into the measuring chamber via an obstruction-resistant fused silica restrictor.Thesample

gasismixed in themeasuring chamber withhydrogenorhydrogen/helium (4:6)and with a specific

amount of air and routed via the nozzle into the combustion chamber.

The hydrogen pressure is held constant by a pressure regulator. The balanced system of pump,

restrictors and pressure regulators ensures that the sample gas pressure is kept constant.

TheFIDAMAT operates largelyautomatically. Iftheparameters (pressures,temperatures) areset,

been reached. The hydrogen and combustion air pressures are measured when switching on, and

the control panel indicates if they are incorrectly set.
