Introduction

Thank you for buying our nitrogen detector Model ND-210.


This unit is for measurement of nitrogen in liquid, solid, and gas samples.
To use the unit efficiently and safely, read this manual and fully understand the functions and the
operation methods before use.
To use Model ND-210 correctly and safely, appoint supervisors and operators before use.
Refer to the Operation Manual for measurement operation using a complete system.

In the NSX-2100 system, the following accessories can be used for different types of samples.
Read the instruction manuals of each additional unit.
(There are some unsupported combinations. When adding new accessories, update the unit software
and the PC program.)

• Electric furnace (HF-210 and VF-210) : For combustion, decomposition, and gas control
• Automatic Boat Controller (ABC-210) : For carrying samples into HF-210
• Automatic Sample Changer for solid samples (ASC-240S)
An automatic boat controller is built in.
• Automatic Sample Changer for liquid samples (ASC-250L)
When using HF-210, use with ABC-210.
• Gas Injector (GI-210 or GI-220) : For gas sample measurement

Failure to do so can lead to a fire.

2
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

CAUTION
Install the unit on a flat surface to avoid displacement of units.

CAUTION
Ventilate the room by a ventilating fan, etc. Failure to do so may affect the health by the
vapor or gas generated from chemicals.

CAUTION
When moving the unit, two persons should hold the unit bottom. The unit is heavy and
the injury by dropping the unit on the foot may be caused.

During Usage

CAUTION
Use micro syringes specified by the unit manufacturer.

CAUTION
Appoint specific supervisors and operators for this unit.

CAUTION
Do not touch the power plug with wet hands to prevent electric shock.

CAUTION
Do not modify, damage, or put together the power cable.
Do not use the current under the rating or the power cable of the voltage value.
By placing heavy objects on the cable, heating or putting together the cable or using the
current under the rating, the cable is broken by temperature raise to cause a fire and
electric shock.

CAUTION
Do not remove the covers of the unit except for our servicemen.
Electric shock or fire can be caused.

CAUTION
Check that the earth terminal is properly connected to prevent electric shock.

3
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

CAUTION
When handling chemicals, put on safety glasses and gloves to protect skin and eyes.
Do not inhale chemical vapor.

Maintenance and Inspection

CAUTION
Check the unit every day before use. Failure to check can lead to reduced performance
of the unit, and even to serious accidents.

In Case of Accidents

WARNING
When accidents occur to this unit, immediately inform supervisors and take an
emergency procedure. While causes are unclear or troubles are not solved,
never restart the unit.

Section 3: Installation

3-3. Power Preparation

3-3-1. Power

ND-210 consumption power is 300VA.


Voltage fluctuation range should be within ±10%.
When voltage fluctuation is over 10%, use a voltage stabilizer.

3-3-2. Grounding

ND-210 power cable is 3-line type including a grounding line.


Insert power cables into 3-line type power outlets and ground them stably.
If the power outlets are 2-line type, always ground them from the earth terminals of power cables.

3-4. Supply Gas Line

3-4-1. Line Preparation

The gas line for the electric furnace will branched off, so there is no need to prepare an exclusive line
for ND-210.

3-4-2. Line Connection

(1) Connect a three-way connector (4TTT-S) to the oxygen line inlet of the electric furnace
(VF-210 or HF-210) rear.

(2) Connect a line for oxygen gas to “GAS IN O2” of ND-210 rear.

To remove moisture in sample gas, set a tube-type dehumidifier (tube dryer).

(1) Open the front door of the electric furnace, pass the tube dryer though the rear from the unit duct.
About two-thirds of the tube dryer should be outside of the unit.
(2) Set a φ6 one-touch connector (PLGJ6-4) to the connector of the dryer side.
(3) Connect a PTFE tube φ4/2 90cm and put it out to the unit rear.

(4) Connect a PTFE tube φ6/4 3cm to the dryer tip.

Section 3: Installation

3-5-2. Buffer Tank Setting (Vertical Furnace)

Combustion gas from the electric furnace is passed through a tube dryer, once stored in a buffer tank,
and then transmitted into the detector. The procedure for setting a buffer tank is as follows.
When setting lines to the buffer tank, use the sleeve inside the nut to fix firmly.

(1) Set a buffer tank to ND-210 rear with screws.

(2) Take the PTFE tube from “GAS IN SAMPLE” of ND-210 rear and insert it though the inlet
connector of the tank. Insert it completely. The line tip should have a diagonal cut.
(To connect SD-210 to ND-210, cut the line tip to be flat. To switch back to one detector after
cutting the line tip flat, the tube tip should be 5mm from the top surface of the buffer tank.)

(3) Set a φ6/4 PTFE tube 3cm to the dryer top. Connect a φ6/4 reducer elbow connector
(30-6RUE4-C) to the end.

(4) Connect a φ4/2 PTFE tube 45cm to (3) and connect the free end to the other connector (not pass
through) of the buffer tank.

(3) Set φ6/4 PTFE tube 3cm to tube


dryer. Set φ6/4 elbow connector
(30-6RUE4-C) to PTFE tube.

(1) Fix buffer tank


with screws.

(4) Connect φ4/2 PTFE tube 45cm


to the tube dryer tip and (2) Insert the tube of “GAS

Section 4: Preparation

Section 4: Preparation
4-1. Measurement Principles
Sample is injected into a high-temperature (600 to 1100℃) pyrolysis tube by argon carrier gas.
After nitrogen compounds in the sample are pyrolyzed, it is combusted, oxidized, and converted to
nitric oxide (NO). After removing moisture from the combustion gas by a dehumidifier (tube dryer),
the following oxidation reaction occurs by reaction of NO with ozone.
NO + O3 → NO2 + O2 + hν
By this reaction, 590 to 2,500nm wavelength light is generated.
The optical intensity of this light is proportional to the NO concentration at a wide frequency range.
After emitted light is detected by a photomultiplier tube and signal processing is run, an area value is
obtained. Using the relation between area and concentration (calibration curve) obtained from
standard solutions, the total nitrogen concentration in the sample is calculated.
Though some samples generate interfering substances such as SOx and CO in the process of
decomposition to NO, there is little influence on measurement by chemiluminescence method by
pressure reduction method.

4-1
Section 4: Preparation

4-1-1. Samples Inappropriate for Measurement

For nitrogen in samples such as azo compounds and hydrazine compounds, N2 is generated as the
main compound when pyrolyzed in a pyrolysis tube.
Therefore, recovery is extremely low in chemiluminescence method and measurement can not be run
accurately.

4-1-2. Interference in Chemiluminescence Method

• Interference Element Concept

There are two types of interference elements in chemiluminescence method.


Substances which react with ozone and generate chemiluminescence light will cause positive
interference.
Substances which takes away excitation energy from the excited NO2 will cause negative
interference.

• Positive Interference

The following substances may show positive interference.

(a) Carbonyl compounds of iron and nickel


(b) Olefins such as ethylene and trimethyl ethylene
(c) Sulfides such as dimethyl sulfide and hydrogen sulfide

The frequency of chemiluminescence light from (a) substances overlap with ozone’s
chemiluminescence. But these substances are unlikely to exist in the sample gas, and
practically, there is no problem.
The chemiluminescence from (b) and (c) can be omitted in most cases by optical filters, but
in some special cases, these substances can interfere with the measurement.
Samples including chlorine (e.g. sea water) generate Cl2 and sometimes interfere with
measurement. Use acid gas removal kit (optional) to avoid this.

• Negative Interference

Negative interference occurs when interference element removes excitation energy from
excited molecules. Therefore, interference occurs when measurement element coexists with
interfering substances.
Water and carbon dioxide show negative interference. Water is removed by the dehumidifier.
When carbon dioxide concentration is stable, NO concentration is influenced at a fixed rate.
By the reduced pressure method, the pressure within the chemiluminescence cell is reduced
and intervention among molecules is decreased. Therefore, the influence of carbon dioxide
can be decreased to an irrelevant level.

as sea water
· Pyrolysis tube inspection and change

(1) Judge mechanical strength of a pyrolysis tube by visually checking the devitrified part.
* When fine cracks are seen in the white devitrified part, mechanical strength is low.
(2) When the pyrolysis tube is devitrified and mechanical strength is low, change the pyrolysis tube
immediately.
