Operating Principle The SERVOPRO NOx analyzer utilizes the principle of chemiluminescence for analyzing the NO, NOx or NO2 concentration within a gaseous sample. The sample enters the analyzer directly into a heated chamber and is maintained at an elevated temperature. The moisture will remain in the vapor state, ensuring no loss of the NO2. In the case of the heated NOx analyzer version, the external chiller can be used to drop the moisture content down so that the moisture does not quench the analyzer signal for those applications that require the quenching due to CO 2 and H2O to be below 2%...

In the NOx mode, the sample is first routed through an internal converter which converts the NO2 in the sample to NO, then the native NO from the sample plus NO from the converted NO2 flows to the reaction chamber to react with O3. The resultant reaction is a total NO native plus the converted NO2 giving a total concentration of NOx. The NO2 is then just a simple matter of subtracting the native NO from the NOx value. Reaction Chamber The sample and O3 are delivered to the reaction chamber via the unique regulated flow system described below, and mixed together at the center of the chamber where...

Flow System The basic function of the flow system is to deliver highly stablized flows of sample and air or O2 to the ozonator and reaction chamber assemblies. The EPC (electronic proportional control) valve delivers approximately 15 PSIG (standard without ozone pump option) to a pre-set capillary and consequently accurately predetermines the ozone flow rate. The air supply cylinder should be set to 25 PSIG. Sample flows through the sample EPC valve, then the NO/NO x solenoid valve, then the sample capillary and into the reaction chamber. The sample pressure is factory set to approximately 3.85...
