INTRODUCTION
This manual provides all the necessary information to install, operate and
maintain the 330S, 330SDS, 331S and 331SDS model H2S Analyzer units. This
manual is intended for all technical level users.
Throughout this document will be referring to the models 330S and 331S.
However, the information applies equally to the 330SDS and 3301SDS (Dual
sensor), unless otherwise stated. To clarify, the difference between an "S" model
and a "SDS" model analyzer is the second sensor the "SDS" has to measure H2S
giving it the capability to measure H2S from two different samples at the same
time; the DS stands for Dual Sensor.
The Envent 330S/331S H2S Analyzer is a uniquely rugged and simple design that
utilizes lead acetate based detection which provides a linear and interference-free
output of H2S concentration. This analyzer can measure a wide range of hydrogen
sulfide concentrations from parts per billion (ppb) concentrations to parts per
million (ppm) concentrations. With the addition of a dilution sample system, it
can read high concentrations in percentage up to 100%. There are other options
available such as the sample system for H2S analysis in liquids or the addition of a
hydrogen reaction furnace for total sulfur measurements.

Physical Reaction
Envent's models 330S and 331S H2S analyzers use ASTM D4084 – 07: Standard
Test Method for analysis of hydrogen sulfide in gaseous fuels (Lead Acetate
reaction rate method). This method uses lead acetate impregnated paper.
Throughout this document the term lead acetate tape will be written as "H2S
sensing tape". Refer to "Safety Data Sheet for H2S Sensing Tape" on page 72 for
safety information on the H2S sensing tape.
The H2S sensing tape reacts when in contact with hydrogen sulfide by the
compound relationship shown below. This tape does not react to any other sulfur
compounds in the gas stream. This makes it free from interference when more
than one sulfur compound is present in the sample stream. The H2S reaction is
visibly evident by a brown stain directly on the H2S sensing tape.
The sensor block has a LED and a photodiode detector. The LED emits a red
beam of light which is reflected off of the H2S sensing tape to the photodiode
which detects the light intensity. The darker the H2S sensing tape becomes when
in contact to H2S, the less light the photodiode detector receives reducing the
millivolt value, which in turn, increases the H2S value. The "SDS" models
uniquely measures rate of change on both sides of the H2S sensing tape, allowing
for simultaneous readings of two separate samples.
Figure 1 above shows a flow and pressure regulated of a filtered sample gas
passing through the humidifier into the sample chamber. An aperture in the
sample chamber, which differs in sizes depending on the application, allows the
gas to come in contact with the H2S sensing tape creating a brown stain.
Flow and pressure are the most important variables when measuring H2S and
must be kept at a constant state for the analyzer to measure H2S properly. Pressure
should be kept at a constant 15 psig. The lowest pressure found to be tolerable for
proper H2S measurement is 0.5 psig. Flow must be kept at a constant flow of 2 cm
(83.63 cc/min). A change in flow of +/- 1 cm affects the reading by 10% of full
range.
Analysis Cycles
The analysis of the color rate of change on the H2S sensing tape is measured in
analysis cycles. An analysis Cycle lasts up to a maximum of 720 seconds (12
minutes).
Do not change the Maximum Analysis Time, consult Envent Engineering Ltd.
Analyzers sold prior to Mid-August 2016 are set to have a 360 second analysis
cycle.
Figure 2 shows a complete analysis cycle from when the motor has advanced the
H2S sensing tape from a previous analysis (1), to the end of the current analysis
(4). Once the H2S sensing tape has finished moving and new tape surface area is
exposed, the reflection of light from the LED to the photodiode detector is at its
maximum and results in a voltage output from the sensor block of 1000 mV (+/-
100 mV). This voltage is captured by the analyzer and it is referred to as the "Zero
Voltage". The zero voltage will vary for each surface area of the H2S sensing tape
and will represent the starting point for the H2S reading for that cycle.
From stage (2) to (4) the H2S value starts increasing as the millivolt value drops
from exposure to H2S. This stage is called "RRA Analysis". The RRA stands for
Rapid Response Algorithm and it is the instantaneous H2S readings calculated
every 67 ms. As the H2S sensing tape darkens, the RRA value starts going up
every second. Although the RRA values are calculated almost instantaneously,
they are not as accurate as the final reading obtained at the "Concentration
Calculation" stage (3) to (4). However, RRA values can be used as a trigger
alarms setpoint in case the application requires a rapid response time (less than
the RRA Analysis completion). The first part of the RRA Analysis (2) to (3)
On this stage, the H2S slope is optimal for calculating the final H2S value for that
Cycle. Algorithms are used by the controller board to calculate as accurately as
possible the H2S final value. Once the final value is obtained, it will stay at that
value (shown in the display and 4-20 mA analog outputs) until the next cycle has
finished and updates the H2S current reading. This stage will always be 1/5 of the
amount of time it takes stage (2) to (3) to complete. Thus, if stage (2) to (3) took
600 seconds, then stage (3) to (4) will take 120 seconds.
It is important that the analyzer is used for its calibrated H2S range. Do not use
this unit for an application that will require readings outside of its calibrated
range. This will cause the H2S sensing tape to run out faster and may cause less
accurate readings. The range is determined by the aperture strip in the sample
chamber. For more information analyzer ranges, refer to "Aperture Strip" on page
20.
Dual sensor analyzers have two sensors that read H2S from two different samples
at the same time, e.g. Sensor 1: 0-20 ppm H2S Sensor 2: 0-200 ppm H2S. The
analysis cycle process is the same per sensor as explained earlier in this section;
however, some extra algorithms have been implementing to help with the
interaction between the two sensors and their analysis cycles' timing.
Both analysis cycles for each sensor will always start at the same time. When the
motor moves and new H2S sensing tape area is exposed, a new analysis cycle has
started for both sensors. However, the analysis cycles from each sensor will finish
at different times. Either sensor 1 or sensor 2 will finish its analysis cycle first.
Regardless of which sensor finishes first, it will wait for the other sensor to
complete its analysis cycle. Once both sensors have completed their analysis
cycles, the motor will move and new H2S sensing tape area is exposed for a new
analysis cycle.
It is important to clarify that when the first sensor has finished its analysis cycle,
even when it is waiting for the second sensor to complete its analysis cycle, it
immediately updates any outputs associated with that sensor (Analog output 4-20
mA, alarms, display H2S value, etc.).
In this section, the main components of the 330S/331S H2S analyzer will be
covered as well as the optional components added to the system at customer
request. A brief explanation of type, functionality, set up and options will be
described.
Total Sulfur and Dilution system options will not be covered in this section.
Please refer to Total Sulfur and Dilution manuals.
Controller Board
The H2S controller board is the most important electronic component of the
analyzer. It is a printed circuit board that holds all of the customer's connections
such as, communication ports, digital inputs, analog outputs, relay outputs
solenoid outputs, and AC or DC power input. Refer to Figure 3.
Power Connection
The H2S controller board has four solenoid driver outputs. They operate at the
same voltage used to power the controller board and are used to directly drive
solenoids for shutdown, auto-calibration, stream switching, etc. The connection
F1-F1 is used to power up the furnace for Total Sulfur applications (Refer to
Figure 4).
The H2S controller board has four dry contact relays used as status outputs, to
drive external relays or solenoids. They are rated for a maximum of 120 VAC 5
Amp (Refer to Figure 4).
Analog Outputs
The H2S controller board has two isolated loop power 4-20mA outputs which can
be set up for different variable outputs. Loop power (10-32 Volts) sourced from
the end device (PLC) is required for the analog to output. Figure 5 shows the
different wiring set ups for the analog outputs.
The third wiring option shown in Figure 5 uses Envent's powered AO board(s) to
provide self-powered analog outputs. These boards are available at Envent
Engineering Ltd. Refer to "Power AO Boards" on page 30.
Digital Inputs
The H2S controller board has four digital inputs use to signal the analyzer of a
change of state from an external device, refer to Figure 3. As factory default,
DI#1 is used for low H2S sensing tape sensor and DI#2 is used for low pressure
The H2S controller board has the communication capabilities for RS-232, RS-485
and Ethernet (Optional). The RS-232 Serial port is wired to a mini USB Female
connector for easy access with an communication extension cable (provided with
analyzer) refer to Figure 6.
Sample Chamber
The sample chamber is the component that allows the H2S sample to come in
contact to the H2S sensing tape which in turn is read by the sensor block. The
sample chamber is made of the following components:
Sensor Block
The sensor block measures the intensity of the LED light reflected off of the H2S
sensing tape. It is composed of an electronic board, a red light emitting diode and
a photodiode, refer to Figure 8. As the tape gets darker due to exposure to H2S,
the photodiode receives less light. Less light translates to more H2S.
These two components seal the small compartment where the H2S comes inside
the sample chamber, refer to Figure 8. The window keeps a clear view for the
LED and the photodiode to work properly and isolates them from the sample gas.
The rubber gasket seals the Sample Chamber compartment preventing any leaks.
Aperture Strip
The sample chamber has a fixed size aperture of ¼ inch which is used for
concentrations in between 1 ppm to 16 ppm.
Various sizes of apertures match different measurement ranges. Table 2 shows the
aperture size according to its range.
Remember: gain and span values on analog outputs will have to change based on
new range application. Please re-calibrate analyzer. Refer to "H2S Gas
Calibration" on page 54.
The adhesive used to glue the aperture strip in its place is RTV108 Translucent
Adhesive. RTV102, RTV103, and RTV109 could also be used.
The trigger slide is the device that seals the H2S sensing tape against the sample
chamber. The pressure created by the two springs is enough to seal the sample
chamber (4 – 5 W.C). The head of the trigger slide is low-friction which ensures
the H2S sensing tape to move smoothly preventing the tape to break. It also
ensures that the stain on the tape has even and sharp edges. Refer to Figure 9.
Figure 9. Trigger Slide Installed on a 330S H2S Analyzer (Applicable for 331S Analyzers)
Flowmeter
This component comes with all 330S/331S H2S analyzer. The flowmeter is a F65-
65mm forged aluminum body with a standard cartridge control valve*. Flow must
be kept at a constant flow of 2 cm (83.63 cc/min). A change in flow of +/- 1 cm
affects the reading by 10% of full range.
Humidifier Unit
For the H2S to adhere to the surface of the H2S Sensing tape, it needs to be
humidified. The humidifier unit helps having constant moisture content in the
sample which increases the chemical reaction on the H2S Sensing tape. Envent
Engineering Ltd offers a unique design of humidifiers meant to meet the
requirements for humidification of the sample before it gets into contact with the
H2S sensing tape; refer to Figure 10 .
The humidifier works by using Nafion Tubing. This material has the capability to
transports water vapor from the most humidified medium to the driest medium.
The sample gas traveling inside the Nafion tube is dryer than the outside of the
tube which is being saturated with water, thus, humidifying the gas sample. It is
important to have a constant flow to create a constant humidification of the
sample gas.
The humidifier unit can be filled with distilled water or 5% Acetic Acid up to
where the line indicates on the unit. Acetic acid is preferable over distilled water
since it prevents the liquid to create mold and fungus overtime. Also the freezing
point for water is 0 °C and for 5% Acetic Acid is -2 °C making it more reliable
under freezing temperatures.
For the SDS models, the humidifier has two inlet and outlet ports. It is important
to make sure that the tubing is not connected to the wrong port. The Vinyl tubing
that connect to the humidifier are label with a 1 and a 2, make sure they are
matched when installing them to the humidifier.
Figure 11 shows know how to install the humidifier unit in a model 331S H2S
analyzer. Same principle applies for the model 330S H2S analyzer.
Eductor Block
The eductor is required with this model in order to maintain electrical safety and
certification in division 2 areas.
In cold climates, since the analyzer is venting a moist sample, freezing can occur.
The educator will help reduce freezing problems in the vent line due to the
increased velocity and drying effect of the sweep gas. The eductor vent can be
retrofitted to existing analyzers.
In normal conditions, the eductor makes a noise similar to a gas leak. This noise is
normal and it is due to the 15 psig pressure being expelled through the restricted
fitting creating suction from the gas vent line (Venturi Effect). DO NOT block the
opening at the bottom of the eductor or the modified elbow fitting.
For special sample systems, refer to drawing package in the analyzer binder or
USB flash drive provided with the analyzer.
Filter Housing
The filter housing is capable of withstanding up to 5000 psig. This filter is set as
"Particulate" to better remove solid particles from the gas sample. For wet/dirty
systems, the filter is set as "Coalescent". The bonded microfiber filter element
located inside the filter housing should be changed at least every 3 months or as
required depending on the application.
Please contact Envent Engineering Ltd to order more bonded microfiber filters.
(Part No. 330406)
Pressure Regulator
The pressure regulator is a Swagelok 316SS 0-3600 psig Inlet and 0-25psig outlet
Series KPR.
Pressure Gauge
The Pressure gauge has a range of 0-30 psig. The pressure should be maintained
at 15 psig for normal operation. The lowest pressure found to be acceptable for
proper H2S measurement is 0.5 psig; however, it is not recommended to have a
lower pressure than 10 psig.
Three-way valve
It allows the user to manually switch from sample gas to calibration gas.
This needle valve works by draining any liquids that may collect from the filter. It
also reduces lag time in the sample piping.
To learn more about lag time in the sample inlet please go to "Sample Volume &
Flow Rate" on page 34.
Maximum pressure for the standard sample system (conventional) is 2500 psig.
Analyzers, depending on its application, are installed in different types of sample
conditioning systems which may make its maximum inlet pressure vary. Consult
Analyzer's drawing package for more information about maximum inlet pressure.
The analyzer unit by itself can only withstand a maximum of 30 psi.
The sample conditioning system comes with the Envent's IFR regulator and filter
housing unit. The maximum inlet pressure is 3600 psig and outlet is 0-25 psig.
Pressure gauge used is the same as the conventional sample system. Refer to
Figure 15. The filter housing contains a bonded microfiber filter element that
should be changed at least every 3 months or as required depending on the
application.
Please contact Envent Engineering Ltd to order more bonded microfiber filters.

Analyzers can automatically alarm when the H2S sensing tape is almost fully used
and needs to be changed for a new one. It alarms when the tape has 2 – 5 days left
remaining on the roll. This sensor is installed at customer request or it can be
obtained after purchase. Refer to Figure 16.
Please contact Envent Engineering Ltd to order a low H2S sensing tape sensor.
(Part No. 330046A)
The low H2S sensing tape sensor is wired to DI#1 in the controller board by
default. Low tape alarm is configured to change state of Relay#4, Fault LED, and
Virtual#1 for standard configurations.
Low Pressure Switch
Analyzer with low pressure switch(es) alarm when the sample inlet pressure drops
below 10 psig. Pressure switch(es) are installed at customer request. It is wired to
DI#2 by default in a Fail Safe configuration. Low pressure alarm is configured to
change state of Relay#4, and Fault LED for standard configurations.
The 330S/331S H2S analyzer has two isolated loop power 4-20mA Outputs. For
self-powered AO, power AO boards can be implemented at customer request;
refer to Figure 18.
The 330S/331S H2S analyzer has the capability to communicate through RS-232
and RS-485. For Ethernet (TCP/IP Protocol), a communication card is
implemented to the analyzer at customer request, refer to Figure 19 .
Installation Requirements
Electrical Requirements
The 330S/331S H2S analyzer's controller board can either be 110-240VAC or 10-
32VDC. Consult the analyzer nameplate attached to it or factory calibration
certificate for more information.
Certification nameplate shows the voltage range at which the controller board can
withstand (e.g., 120 – 240 VAC), however, when using external devices which
are powered by the controller board (e.g., solenoids), that voltage range no longer
applies and only the external device’s voltage rating shall be used; e.g., 120 VAC
rated solenoid, the analyzer shall be powered with only 120 VAC and not 240
VAC.
The power consumption for a VDC analyzer is 3 Watts and for a VAC is 5 Watts.
For the total sulfur option the power consumption 300 Watts.
When the total sulfur option is used, the 330S is rated for Class I, Division 1
Groups BCD and the 331S is for Class I, Division 2 Groups BCD.
Figure 20. Space Requirements for the 330S & 331S H2S Analyzers
Make sure to leave at least 1 feet of extra space on the left side of the 330S H2S
analyzer. This will allow proper opening of the side door located at the upper blue
chassis where the H2S sensing tape is located.
The sample to the 330S/331S H2S analyzer must be representative of the process
stream and should be taken from a point as close as possible to the analyzer to
avoid lag times and sample degradation in the tubing. A probe must be installed
vertically on a horizontal section of pipe ensuring that the sample is drawn from
the middle third of the pipeline.
An optional Genie GPR Probe regulator may be used. The function of this probe
is to ensure a clean dry sample to the analyzer and to reduce the pressure of the
sample. The lower pressure will improve the response time of the analyzer. Refer
to Figure 21.
1/4 inch 316 stainless steel tubing and fittings are recommended for the sample
inlet and sample sweep tubing. Sample sweep can be connected to a flare line if
available. Refer to Figure 21.
1/8 inch 316 stainless steel tubing can also be used if the response time of the
analyzer is of particular concern.
Vent line
3/8 inch stainless steel tubing and fittings are recommended for the vent line to a
maximum of 6 feet in length. 1/2 inch stainless steel tubing should be used for
vent lines exceeding 6 feet. The tubing should be installed with a slight downward
slope and should be as short as possible. Refer to Figure 21.
The sample vent line must be tubed to atmospheric pressure outside and cannot be
connected to a flare line or header.
The sample should be supplied to the 330S/331S H2S analyzer at 10-15 psig and
at a flow of 83.63 cc/min (set flowmeter at 2.0). A bypass sweep is recommended
to reduce sample lag time in the sample line if it is at high pressure or it is longer
than 15 feet (The Standard H2S conditioning sample system has a bypass sweep).
The standard sample tubing material is 1/4" 316 stainless steel; however, 1/8"
stainless steel tubing can be used if the response time is critical (refer to Table 3).

The 330S/331S H2S analyzer has a software application for more advanced
changes on the analyzer's configuration. To install the ICE Software, refer to the
installer which comes in a USB flash drive with the analyzer (Check Start-up kit
box). It is also available at www.envent-eng.com.
This manual covers only information that will help the user update/change the
analyzer's configuration file. The features in the ICE Software that are not
covered on this manual are not to be changed from its factory configuration. If
advanced changes are necessary involving features not cover on this manual,
contact Envent Engineering Ltd for assistance.
Read this manual section before operating the ICE software to change the default
configuration to ensure correct operation of the analyzer.
For Class I, Division 1 Model 330S Analyzers, the glass window must remain
installed in order to maintain area classification. However, to communicate to the
330S analyzer via RS-232 or RS-485 the glass window must be removed. Ensure
area is known to be a non-hazardous before removing the explosion proof
window.
The H2S analyzer's controller board has a USB port for local user interface and
three RS-485 connections. The RS-485 connections are identified with numbers
from 1 to 3 on the controller board. Connections RS-232, RS-485-1 and RS-485-2
are used to communicate with the analyzer to check or modify the current
analyzer's configuration; these connections have Modbus communication
capabilities. RS-485-3 is only used for remote display option. The proper Mini
USB to USB cable is provided in the analyzer spare parts.
Connecting the Analyzer to a Computer Using the ICE Software
Install the ICE software on your computer using the software installer provided in
the USB flash drive or on the Envent Engineering's website.
Once the ICE software is installed, physically connect the analyzer to the
computer using the Mini USB to USB cable provided.
Open the ICE software. Select the USB port the analyzer is physically connected
to. Do not select ''Enable Hi-Speed''. Click on ''Read'' and wait until the green bar
has completed at the bottom of the screen, refer to Figure 23.
Once communication has been established successfully, the user will be able to
modify the analyzer's configuration and write it to the analyzer.
Before modifying the factory configuration file, make sure to save it on your
computer first for future retrieval. If the factory configuration file is lost or
modified without saving it, a copy is kept in the USB flash drive given with the
analyzer. Envent Engineering Ltd can also provide a copy. To save the
configuration file, go to File > Save or Save as.
Make the appropriate changes on the factory configuration file through the ICE
software. When changes are made, they need to be uploaded to the analyzer in
order to overwrite what is currently on it. Click on the ''Write button'' (located
beside the Read button; refer to Figure 23) and wait until the new configuration is
uploaded successfully.
In this section of the ICE software, discrete inputs (and virtual inputs) are
configured. Go to System IO>Inputs>Discrete Inputs. Refer to Figure 24.
IO Name
IO names are names assigned to the discrete and virtual inputs. The name is up to
the user's discretion. Figure 24 shows DI#1 to be for Low H2S Tape Sensor. Once
a discrete or virtual input is configured, an alarm can be added based on the
discrete or virtual input status. Refer to "Alarm Configuration" on page 45.
Active State Action
Active state action is the response or output the discrete or virtual input will have
when changing states. "Standard" is selected when the discrete or virtual input is
used to output an alarm condition. "Bypass and halt" will place the analyzer into
these states when the discrete or virtual input changes state. "Acknowledge" is
used when an latched alarm needs to be acknowledged remotely (by means of a
switch).
Analog & Discrete Output Configuration
In this section of the ICE software, analog and discrete outputs are configured. To
access the analog and discrete outputs, go to System IO>Output Tab. Refer to
Figure 25.
Analog Outputs
Analog outputs are used when a device must be monitored or controlled remotely
over a pair of conductors. Two 4-20 mA loop-powered analog output connections
are available on the controller board (or looped-powered if AO Boards were
requested by the customer); refer to "Analog Outputs" on page 16 for more
information. This section will refer to the configuration of the analog outputs
through the ICE software.
Changing the analog outputs' ranges (span values) should be done in consultation
with Envent Engineering Ltd. If the intention is to change the analyzer's H2S
range, previous steps must be followed in order for this change to work properly.
The aperture strip must be changed, alarm setpoint values, gain, H2S range, etc.
The Third analog output is only used for Total Sulfur options. Do not modify
factory settings.
Track Mode
This option allows activating or deactivating the analog output. Refer to Figure 25
area ①
IO Names are names assigned to the analog outputs. The name is up to the user's
discretion. Figure 25 area ① shows the analog output names as "H2S" as default
for standard configurations.
Zero & Span
These columns refer to the range being measured. Since the variables used for the
analog outputs are the analyzer H2S readings, the zero and span values are 0 to 20
ppm of H2S (for standard configurations). Refer to Refer to Figure 25 area ①
For the standard factory configuration on 330S/331S, both 1 and 2 analog output
variables are based on the analyzer H2S readings of sample 1.
These values are set at factory. They compensate for the differences on the
resistors and capacitors in the controller board. Do not modify these values.
Variable
Items used by the analog output to signal their current statuses. To select a new
variable, go to the right hand menu on dark blue background and find the new
variable. Click and drag the variable to the variable column and proceed to change
the specification on the analog output row according to the new variable.
Discrete Outputs
In this section of the ICE software, discrete outputs are named and their status
states are set-up. Refer to Refer to Figure 25 area ②.
IO Name
IO Names are names assigned to the discrete outputs. The name is up to the user's
discretion. Names are set-up according to the analyzer standard factory
configuration file. These names are based on what alarm variable they are used
for. These discrete output names will appear in the Output Controls column in the
Alarm tab section. Refer to Figure 25 area ②.
Active state is the condition the discrete output will have when in alarm. If
selected as "De-energized", the discrete output will be fail-safe. Refer to Figure 25
area ②.
Alarm Configuration
In this section of the ICE software, alarms and alarm setpoint are configured.
Refer to this section to learn how to add, modify, or delete an alarm.
Adding an Alarm
Go into the ''Alarm'' tag, refer to Figure 26. This section will show the current
alarm configuration on the analyzer.
To add an alarm, use the right hand menu on dark blue background to locate the
appropriate variable as shown in Figure 26. On the right hand menu is where all
analyzer variables can be found. In this example, we will add an Emergency
System-Shutdown (ESD) using 15 ppm of H2S concentration readings as the
setpoint. To add the appropriate variable for this example, click on
Modes>Sample> H2S >Current Value. Refer to Figure 27.
Click on the appropriate variable, in this case ''Current Value'', and drag it all the
way to the empty variable box, refer to Figure 27. Once the variable has been
added to the list, you can proceed and change the alarm parameters on the
variable. These parameters are:
Description
It will label the variable. This will identify the alarm on the display.
Sense Mode
Value at which the alarm resets back to a no alarm condition. The reset value is
calculated automatically from the setpoint minus the dead-band value assigned.
Dead-band
Area of a measured variable that must be compensated before the alarm condition
goes to a non-alarm condition. The dead-band is use to avoid ON-OFF repeatedly
if the variable value is close to the alarm setpoint.
Latching an alarm will keep its alarm condition even after the variable values are
no longer in alarm condition. When an alarm is latched, it will need to be
acknowledged through the display (ACK) or by remote acknowledge (through a
Digital Input) for the control outputs to go back into normal state.
Output Controls
Output control or discrete outputs, when selected, will change states when the
alarm is triggered. To select the active state of the discrete outputs, go to System
IO>Outputs Tab>Discrete Outputs.
Alarm Timer
It is a timer delay for the alarm to activate once it has hit the setpoint and kept that
alarm condition during the timer countdown. The analyzer recognizes the alarm
condition but it will not go into an alarm state or activate any discrete outputs until
the timer countdown has completed. (E.g. the temperature is set to 120 seconds
and the setpoint is 0 Degrees Celsius - descending). The analyzer will go into
alarm after the analyzer reaches 0 Degrees Celsius or lower and stays at or below
the setpoint during the full countdown.
AO1 & AO2 Full Scale
It forces the analog outputs to full scale when a condition is met. For instance, if
the RRA alarm setpoint is set to 20 ppm with a Full scale AO1 option checked
(Checkbox), AO1 will immediately go to 20 mA or Full scale when the analyzer
reads 20 ppm or more. This would happen before the actual analysis time is done
(2-3 mins) which makes it ideal for immediate shutdown.
To move the alarm up or down on the list, click on the ''View'' column for that
specific alarm. In our example, click on the ''8 of 32'' box which highlights the
entire alarm row. Then press control + up or down arrow keys.
Removing an Alarm
Click on the ''View'' column for that specific alarm. Once the alarm row is
highlighted, press ''Delete'' on the keyboard.
There are up to 6 groups with a maximum of 6 items (variables) that can be added
to each group. Group 1 name assigned for Figure 29 is "Sample".
Rollover Count
It is the number of records per item that the analyzer will archive.
Activation: End of Analysis
The analyzer obtains a new H2S reading after the analysis cycle is completed (360
sec max). That is when the analyzer will record the values of each item selected.
The average analysis time is 140 sec to 220 sec; depends on the application and
the H2S range.
Activation: Continuous (Always Set)
When data needs to be recorded at a certain time interval regardless of the analysis
cycle, this option is used. The time interval options vary from every 1 sec to every
30 min. The End of Analysis and the Continuous (Always Set) options can also be
selected at the same time.
Selecting More Items (Variables) Inside a Group
To select items inside a group, locate the variables in the right hand menu on dark
blue background and drag them into the ''Item'' column; same procedure as
"Adding an Alarm" on page 45.
Creating another Group
To create a new group, simply select an item in the right hand menu on dark blue
background and drag it into an empty row in the ''Item'' column. Assign a name,
the maximum amount of records and the activation method.
Retrieve Archives from the Analyzer
Go to the ''Archive'' tab under the report section in the left hand menu. Refer to
Figure 30.
Retrieve the records from the analyzer by clicking on this button. The amount of
records retrieved will depend on the offset and # of records. Refer to Figure 30
area ①
# of Records
The number of records retrieved from the analyzer. By default the analyzer always
retrieves from newest to oldest records. Figure 30 area ①.
Offset
The records are always retrieved from newest to oldest. Use the offset to see the
oldest records and skip the newest ones. E.g. the analyzer has recorded 1000
records, and only the first 100 records (Oldest) need to be retrieved, type in 900 in
the offset box and this will skip the latest 900 records. Refer to Figure 30 area ①.
Sample
On Figure 30 area ② shows "Sample" and ''Alarm Result'' buttons. "Sample" was
the name giving to group 1 on the Configuration>Archives Tab; refer to Archive
Setup Configuration on page 48 for more information.
Alarm Result
The ''Alarm Result'' group is a fixed section that shows all the alarms state
changes, bypass action, discrete input state change, etc. Refer to Figure 30 area ②.
The analyzer stores up to 1024 records from this fixed archive group. Recognize
The Date Range is the option of retrieving data from specific calendar days. By
default, the analyzer will always retrieve data from the current date. To always
retrieve records from a specific Date Range, check the “Fixed” box to retrieve
records from a specific time. Refer to Figure 30 area ③.
Select/De-select All, Copy to Clipboard, & Auto Fit
Once archives have been retrieved from the analyzer, click on Select all and then
click on Copy to clipboard. This data can then be used in a spreadsheet document.
The auto fit option is used to increase the column's width for when the variable's
name being recorded is too long. Refer to Figure 30 area ③.
Display Configuration
Names assigned to the selected variables to be shown in the display. The name is
up to the user's discretion
Variable
Item that will be shown in the analyzer's display. To select a new variable, go to
the right hand menu on dark blue background and find the new variable. Click and
drag variable to the variable box and proceed to change the specification on the
analog output row according to the new variable.
Units
Unis are a simple multiple of the unit of measurement that describes the variable
selected. Refer to Figure 31 area ①.
Decimals
This is where the amount of decimals per variable are decided. Refer to Figure 31
area ①. For lower range H2S analyzers (e.g. 0-20 ppm) it is recommended to use 1
to 2 decimal points, but for high range (e.g. 0-10,000 ppm) it is recommended to
not use decimal points as they are not significant enough for these ranges.
LED Blink Hz
This option is used to make the LED blink when activated. The lower the value,
the fastest it will blink. Zero value means no blinking. Refer to Figure 31 area ②.
Backlit Timeout (Seconds)
Amount of seconds the display backlit will stay ON after pressing a display
button. Zero means the backlit stays always ON. Refer to Figure 31 area ②.
Menu Timeout (Seconds)
The amount of seconds the display will wait until it automatically returns to the
main menu. Zero means the display will not return to the main menu
automatically. The user will need to complete the menu cycle (by pressing the
menu button – lower button) until it goes back to the main menu. Refer to Figure
31 area ②.
This applies to the main menu in the analyzer display. The user can select from 1
to 4 items. These items refer to the variables selected in Figure 31 area ①. If "2
lines" is selected, the 1st and 2nd variables will appear in the main menu.
The display text size will change accordingly to the number of lines displayed in
the main menu.
This feature allows the user to change the function of the top button in the
analyzer display. By default, this button is set to be the bypass manual option.
The other options are: Halt, Acknowledge, and Disable.
Keep in mind that the acknowledge option is already included in the display
variables.

Aperture out of place Take out the sample chamber, unscrew the
sensor block and check that the aperture is
not out of place. If so, refer to "Aperture
Strip" on page 20 for aperture size and "H2S
Gas Calibration" on page 54.

Electronics Issues
Problems Possible Reasons Possible Solutions
Fault LED Incorrect zeroing Make sure the H2S Sensing tape is installed
(Sensor High) properly and do a motor run.
To do a motor run: Display>Press Menu
Button until "MTR Run">Press right button.
This will activate the motor and move the
H2S Sensing tape for a few seconds. The
alarm should clear.
Faulty Sensor Sensor needs to be replaced. Contact Envent
Engineering Ltd for replacement.
Fault LED Sensor did not zero on white Re-install H2S Sensing tape. Refer to "H2S
(Sensor Low) H2S sensing tape because H2S Sensing Tape Change Procedure" on page
sensing tape came out of 57 or on sticker in the analyzers door.

Re-zero sensor block. Refer to Refer to "Re-
zero Sensor Procedure" on page 55.
Sensor/ sensor wire failure Re-zero the sensor block. Refer to "Re-zero
Sensor Procedure" on page 55. If procedure
fails, sensor or sensor wire may require
replacement.
Analog Outputs Not using an external power The analog outputs in the controller board
(4-20 mA) not supply are loop powered and not self-powered
working unless AO boards were installed as per
customer request. If AO boards were not
requested, an external power supply must be
used. Refer to "Analog Outputs" on page 16
to see different wiring options.

Calibration Issues
Problems Possible Reasons Possible Solutions
Change gain Not using the right calibration Make sure the calibration bottle is within
more than +/- bottle analyzer range. It is recommended that
25% from calibration gas used is close in value to
original gain where the alarm setpoint values need to be
after calibration (for more accuracy).
