Measuring principle, measured variables

Functional principle

The DUSTHUNTER C200 measuring system operates as transmissometer with double beam path and as scattered light measuring device with forward dispersion.

2.1.1.1

Active measuring volume Scattered light measurement

Transmission measurement

A high performance LED sends light in the visible range (white light, wavelength approx.

450 to 700 nm) through the active measuring path containing particles to the reflector

where it is bounced back to the receiver (

 Fig. 1). A highly sensitive measurement receiver

accepts the signal weakened by particles, amplifies the signal electrically and feeds it to the measuring channel of a microprocessor as central part of the measuring, control and evaluation electronics.

Continuous monitoring of the sender output (partial beam to monitor receiver) registers the smallest changes in brightness of the light beam sent which then serves to determine the measurement signal.

Measured variables

The measuring system uses transmission (T) as primary optical measured variable. The other measured variables opacity (O), relative opacity (ROPA), extinction (E) and dust concentration (c) are derived from this variable.

Dust concentration:

Based on the Beer-Lambert law, the dust concentration is derived from the extinction as follows: c =

 k L

E

=

 k = extinction constant

L = 2x active measuring path (due to double beam path)

Extinction is directly proportional to dust concentration for constant particle size and uniform dust distribution.

Particle size, dust density and dust distribution during differing load states influence transmission and extinction values and therefore the measuring system must be calibrated using a gravimetric comparison measurement for exact dust concentration measurement.

The calibration coefficient determined can be entered directly in the measuring system as c = cc2

E + cc0

(Entry

 p. 77, §4.4.7; standard factory setting: cc2 = 0, cc1 = 1, cc0 = 0).

Scattered light measurement

A laser diode beams the dust particles in the gas flow with modulated light in the visual range (wavelength approx. 650 nm). A highly sensitive receiver registers the light scattered by the particles, amplifies the light electrically and feeds it to the measuring channel of a microprocessor as central part of the measuring, control and evaluation electronics. The measuring volume in the gas duct is defined through the intersection of the sender beam sent and the receive aperture.

In the same manner as for transmission measurement, continuous monitoring of the sender output registers smallest changes in brightness of the light beam sent which then serves to determine the measurement signal.

Determining the dust concentration

Measured scattered light intensity (SL) is proportional to dust concentration (c). Scattered light intensity not only depends on the number and size of particles but also on the optical characteristics of the particles and therefore the measuring system must be calibrated using a gravimetric comparison measurement for exact dust concentration measurement.

The calibration coefficients determined can be entered directly in the measuring system as c = cc2

Response time

The response time is the time required to attain 90% of the signal peak after a sudden change in the measurement signal. It can be set anywhere between 1 and 600 s. As the response time increases, transient measured value fluctuations and interruptions are damped stronger and stronger which "smoothes out" the output signal.

Function control

A function check can be triggered at fixed intervals as from a definable starting timepoint for an automatic function check of the measuring system. The setting can be made using

the SOPAS ET operating program (

 p. 71, §4.4.3). Any unallowed deviations from normal

behavior that may occur are signaled as errors. A function check triggered manually can help localize possible error causes should a device malfunction occur.

Further information

Service Manual

A function check comprises:

● Approx. 65 s measurement of contamination on optical interfaces, zero and control value

The measurement time depends on the increase in contamination value (change >

0.5% → measurement is repeated up to 2 times → measurement time will be longer).

● Every 90 s (standard value), output of values determined (output duration is configur-

able,

 p. 71, §4.4.3).

● The value measured last is output on the analog output during control value determination.

● If the control values are not output on the analog output, the current measured value is output when control value determination has completed.

● During a function check the relay 3 (

 p. 44, Fig. 27) is activated and the

green LED of the alignment display in the control window of the sender/ receiver flashes (

 p. 20, Fig. 7).

● A function check is not started when the measuring system is in

"Maintenance" mode.

● "Function control" is displayed on the LC-Display of the control unit during the function check.

● If the start timepoint or cycle interval are changed, a function check timed between parameter setting and new start timepoint is still carried out.

● Changes to the interval time are first effective after the next start timepoint.

Zero value measurement

The sender diode is switched off for zero point control so that no signal is received. This means possible drifts or zero point deviations are detected reliably in the overall system

(e.g. due to an electronic defect). An error signal is generated when the "zero value" is outside the specified range.

Control value measurement (Span test)

Sender beam intensity changes between 70 and 100% during control value determination.

The light intensity received is compared against the standard value (70%). The measuring system generates an error signal for deviations greater than ±2%. The fault message is cleared again when the next function check runs successfully. The control value is determined with high precision through statistical evaluation of a high number of intensity changes.

The value calculated theoretically (70%) is output for scattered light measurements at very low dust concentrations (< approx. 1 mg/m³).

Product Description

Contamination measurement

The glass panes positioned in the sender beam during normal measurement are swiveled away during contamination determination (time delayed for sender/receiver unit and reflector/scattered light receiver). The values measured and the reference values determined at every scaling (

 p. 64, §4.2.3) are used to calculate the contamination value.

The values measured in normal operation are reduced by the contamination value so that any contamination is compensated completely in this way.

Contamination measurement principle

Sender/receiver unit Reflector/scattered light receiver

Figure 5

Swivel plate

For contamination values < 40% (default value) a value between live zero and 20 mA proportional to contamination is output on the analog output. If this value is exceeded, the

status "Malfunction" is output (on the analog output the error current;

 p. 70, §4.4.2,  p. 72, §4.4.4).

● The contamination limit can be set freely (

 p. 65, §4.2.5) for operation of

the measuring system according to European standards.

● The contamination limit for "Warning " is always 10% below the value for

"Malfunction".

● The contamination limit for "Warning " is fixed at 3% and the value for

"Malfunction" is fixed at 4% when operated according to EPA standard.

How self-alignment works

The sender module can be moved horizontally and vertically using motors and bevel gears so that the sender light beam can be adjusted by approximately 2° in all directions.

Tracking is performed using the measurement signal on the 4 quadrant elements of the measurement receiver. This allows automatic compensation of optical axis misalignment caused by, for example, distortion of duct walls due to temperature fluctuations.

Flange with tube

Use the target optics to align the flange so that the light spot of the lamp appears in the center of the target optics.

Finally, weld the flange tubes tight all-round and, at the same time, check for exact alignment and correct when necessary. When using the adjusting device, assemble both the flange plate with light source and the flange plate with target optics before welding the second flange tube.

Close off the flange opening after fitting to prevent gas escaping.

Fitting the MCU control unit

Fit the control unit in a protected location that is easily accessible (

 Fig. 20). Observe the following points during fitting:

● Maintain the ambient temperature according to the Technical Data; take possible radiant heat into consideration (shield when necessary).

● Protect against direct sunlight.

● Whenever possible, choose an assembly location with minimum vibrations; dampen any vibrations when necessary.

● Leave enough clearance for cables and opening the door.

Using a suitable cable (

 p. 40, §3.3.1), the MCU-N control unit (without integrated purge air

supply) can be located up to 1000 m away from the sender/receiver unit. We therefore recommend fitting the MCU in a control room (measuring station or similar) to ensure free access to the MCU. This considerably simplifies communication with the measuring system in order to set parameters or to locate malfunction or error causes.

It is advantageous to provide weather protection (tin roof or similar), to be made onsite, for use outdoors.

Basics

General information

Assembly and installation must have been completed according to Section 3 before starting the work described in the following.

Start-up and parameter setting comprise:

● Setting the measuring system to the duct dimensions

● Fitting and connecting the sender/receiver unit and reflector/scattered light receiver

● Customizing parameter settings according to the respective requirements.

To achieve exact measurement, the measuring system must first be calibrated using a

gravimetric comparison measurement (

 p. 77, §4.4.7) before being used for continuous

measurement of dust content.

The operating and parameter program SOPAS ET is provided to set the parameters. The

Menu structure simplifies changing settings. Further functions are also available (e.g. data storage, graphic displays).

Installing the operating and parameter program SOPAS ET

Administrator rights are required to install the program.

Requirements

● Laptop/PC with:

– Processor: Pentium III (or comparable type)

– USB interface (alternative - RS232 via adapter)

– Working memory (RAM): At least 256 MB

– Operating system: MS Windows ME/2000/XP/Vista (not Windows 95/98/NT)

● USB interface cable to connect the Laptop/PC to the measuring system (MCU).

● The operating and parameter program as well as the USB driver (scope of delivery) must be installed on the Laptop/PC.

● The power supply must be switched on.

Start the file "setup.exe" when the start screen does not appear.

Install the SOPAS ET program

Insert the delivered CD in the PC drive, select the language, select "Software" and follow the instructions.

A special software driver is required for communication between the operating and parameter program SOPAS ET and the measuring system via the USB interface. Connect the MCU to the supply voltage and to the PC via USB cable to install the driver. A message appears on the display that new hardware has been detected. Then insert the delivered CD in the PC drive and follow the installation instructions (

 p. 49, Fig. 32).

The driver can also alternatively be installed by using the hardware installation program of the Windows system control.

The USB driver creates a new COM port which has to be used for connecting

the SOPAS ET program to the device (

 p. 51, §4.1.3.2).

Application specific settings

The measuring system must first be set to the respective internal duct diameter to ensure correct measurement of transmission and scattered light intensity. The following steps are required:

Measuring principle

Transmission measurement

Scattered light measurement

Work step

Focussing the sender light beam

Scaling the measuring system to a path free of particles

Adjusting the laser beam

Aim

The light spot on the reflector must lie within the optical active reflection surface under consideration of the active measuring path and the swivel angle allowed.

Influences on measuring results specific to the device and dependent on the distance must be eliminated.

The path free from particles must be identical to the active measuring path

(distances between the optical interfaces of the sender/receiver unit and reflector/ scattered light receiver must be the same).

The laser beam must always be aligned to the light trap on the scattered light receiver.

Calibrating for dust concentration measurement

NOTICE:

The steps described here serve to avoid input errors. Carrying out comparison measurements demands special knowledge that is not described in detail here.

For exact dust concentration measurement, the relation between the primary measured variable transmission (→ Extinction) or scattered light intensity and the actual dust concentration in the duct must be established. To do this, the dust concentration must be determined based through a gravimetric comparison measurement according to DIN EN

13284-1 or comparable regulations and set in relation to the values measured at the same time by the measuring system.

Calibrating dust concentration measurement based on extinction

Select device "MCU", set the measuring system to "Maintenance" mode and enter the

Level 1 password (

 p. 54, §4.1.3.4).

Select the "Configuration / IO Configuration / Output Parameter" directory (

 p. 72, Fig.

61) and assign the "Extinction" measured variable to an analog output.

Estimate the measuring range required for the dust concentration in operational state and enter this in the "Analog Output 1 (2/3) Scaling" field assigned to the selected analog output to output the extinction value.

Select device "DH C200", set the sender/receiver unit to "Maintenance" mode and

enter the Level 1 password (

 p. 54, §4.1.3.4).

Switch "Maintenance" off.

Carry out the gravimetric comparison measurement according to DIN EN 13284-1 or comparable regulations.

General

The maintenance work to be carried out consists of:

● Cleaning work (

 p. 98, §5.2),

● Securing the purge air supply function (

 p. 103, §5.3),

● Checking/correction the optical alignment of sender/receiver unit and reflector/scattered light receiver (

 p. 61, §4.2.2 and  p. 64, §4.2.4).

Take the following steps to set the measuring system to "Maintenance" mode before starting maintenance work.

Connect the measuring system via the USB cable to the laptop/PC and start the SOPAS

ET program.

Click the "Network Scan" button in the "Network Scan Assistant" directory, select "MCU"

device file and move it to the "Project Tree" window (

 p. 57, §4.1.4).

Switch to the "Maintenance/Maintenance" directory, activate the "Maintenance on/off" checkbox in the "Maintenance / Operation" group and click "Set State" (see

 Fig. 80).

Setting "Maintenance" mode

96

WARNING:

Observe the relevant safety regulations as well as the safety notices (

 p. 10,

§1.3) during all work.

Resume measuring operation after completing the work (deactivate the "Maintenance on/ off" checkbox in the "Maintenance / Operation" window and click "Set State").

DUSTHUNTER C200 · Operating Instructions · 8011952 V2.1a · © SICK AG

Maintenance

● The "Maintenance" mode can also be set by using the keys on the LC display on the MCU (

 p. 89, §4.6.2) or connecting an external maintenance

switch to the terminals for Dig In2 (17, 18) in the MCU (

 p. 43, §3.3.4).

● During "Maintenance", an automatic function check is not performed.

● The control window on the back of the reflector/scattered light receiver (

 p. 63, Fig. 53) is illuminated for easier check of the optical alignment.

● The value set for "Maintenance" is output on the analog output (

 p. 72,

§4.4.4). This also applies in case of malfunction (signalised at the relay

output).

● The "Maintenance" state is reset when there is a voltage failure. In this case, the measuring system switches automatically to "Measurement" after the operating voltage is switched on again.

Maintenance intervals

The equipment operator must specify the maintenance intervals. The period depends on existing operating parameters such as dust content and state, gas temperature, how the equipment is run and ambient conditions. Therefore only general recommendations can be made here. Normally, the maintenance intervals are about 4 weeks during the initial period and can be steadily incremented to up to a year depending on the respective conditions.

The equipment operator must specify the specific work to be carried out and its performance in a Maintenance Manual.

Maintenance contract

Scheduled maintenance work can be carried out by the equipment operator. Only qualified personnel according to Section 1 should be allowed to do the work. If desired, SICK Service or authorized Service support centers can carry out all maintenance work. SICK offers cost-effective maintenance and repair contracts. SICK carries out all maintenance and repair work within the framework of such an agreement. Any repairs will be made by specialists onsite whenever possible.

Maintenance

5.3

Maintenance on the purge air supply

Maintenance work to be carried out:

● Inspecting the entire purge air supply

● Cleaning the filter housing

● Replacing the filter element, if necessary.

The dust load and wear on the filter element depend on the degree of contamination of the intake ambient air. It is therefore not possible to specify precise time intervals for these tasks. We recommend the inspection of the purge air supply after start-up at short intervals (approx. 2 weeks) and to optimize the maintenance intervals over a longer operating time.

NOTICE:

Irregular or insufficient maintenance of the purge air supply can cause it to fail and thus cause severe damage to the sender/receiver unit.

Always ensure purge air supply when the optical components sender/ receiver unit and reflector/scattered light receiver are fitted on the duct.

Disassemble the connected components before exchanging damaged

purge air hoses (

 p. 106, §5.4).

Inspection

Check the running noise of the blower at regular intervals; increases in the noise level can indicate a blower failure.

Check that all hoses are secure and free of damage.

Check the filter element for contamination.

Exchange the filter element when:

– Severe contamination (deposits on the filter surface) is visible

– The purge air volume is reduced considerably as compared to operation with a new filter.

The purge air supply does not have to be switched off to clean the filter housing or to replace the filter element, i.e. the components can remain on the duct.

Dust concentration measuring range

The limits for the smallest/largest measuring range depend on the extinction measuring range, active measuring path and optical particle characteristics. Therefore exact range limits cannot be specified here. The following charts can be used to estimate the ranges used. These have been determined based on SICK's many years of experience and are valid assuming constant particle size and characteristics.

Frequently Answers and Questions

How does the DUSTHUNTER C200 system work?
The DUSTHUNTER C200 system uses two measuring principles: transmission and scattered light measurement. In transmission measurement, a light beam is sent through the dust-laden gas, and the amount of light that passes through is measured. In scattered light measurement, a laser beam is focused on the gas, and the amount of light scattered by the dust particles is measured. The system then calculates the dust concentration based on these measurements.
What are the different components of the DUSTHUNTER C200 system?
The DUSTHUNTER C200 system consists of several components: sender/receiver unit, reflector/scattered light receiver, flange with tube, and control unit MCU. The control unit MCU may have an integrated purge air supply or require an optional external purge air unit.
How do I calibrate the DUSTHUNTER C200 system for dust concentration measurement?
The DUSTHUNTER C200 system can be calibrated using a gravimetric comparison measurement. This involves collecting a sample of the dust-laden gas and weighing the dust collected. The system then uses this information to calculate the dust concentration. The calibration coefficients can be entered directly in the measuring system.
