GSM-03型精密微水仪使用说明书扬州市福来特桥架电气制造厂目录一、前言二、水份测量的重要性三、国内微水(湿度)测量方法概述四、测量原理五、主要技术参数六、操作方法七、按键说明八、注意事项九、售后服务附录:1.六氟化硫断路器含水量测量要求一、前言本公司经过多年对微水仪的开发与销售,并经仔细的市场调研,针对GSMO-03型露点仪的一些不足之处,我公司在GSM0-03型的基础上又开发了GSM-03型智能精密露点仪,主要特点如下:1、将原来的畜电池改用了能量密度大、体积小、重量轻的锂离子电池。
对充电、自动关断的全自动电源管理方式,即使用户不打开电源开关,只要插上220V交流电源可自动充电。
当电池量充到一定程度时,系统会自动判断并将其切断。
这样有效地阻止了电对电池的过充电,在使用过程中,仪器会检测电池电量的减少(显示在第二屏),但当电池电量为10%时仪器会提示用户进行充电,当电池电量不足5%时仪器会自动关机。
有效地防止了对电池的过放电,以避免对电池的损坏。
2、根据市场调研的情况来看,内置微型打印机的意义并不大,因为它最多能将测试资料打印出来,并不便于永久的保存,GSM精密露点仪一方面为了减小体积,另一方面也为减轻整机重量,使用户便于携带、便于使用,我们取消了内置微型打印机。
3、GSM-03型机保存记录以后,用户没有办法记住那条记录是测得哪个设备,针对这种情况,我们在开发GSM智能露点仪时,对每个记录,都加了设备名称一栏,即用户在保存记录时,需要输入设备名称,在以后调显时,可以根据设备名称来查相应的记录。
注意:设备名称总共六位,每位可以是0-9这10个阿拉伯数,用户可以通过上下键来修改每一位,左右移动键来确定每位。
4、针对电力系统对压力这个参数比较重视,所以GSM智能露点仪提高了压力测量的精度(±0.05Mpa)和分辩率(0.001Mpa),响应速度也更快。
本仪器主要是针对H2、SF6等无污染性气体的微水(露点)测量而开发的,在开发的过程中始终以“一切为了方便用户”为宗旨。

WS―3型微量水分测定仪使用说明书上海高致精密仪器有限公司第一章概述WS―3型微量水分测定仪是库仑仪和卡尔―菲休法有效结合的应用电量法测定微量水分的新型仪器。
该仪器采用了大电解电流及电流自动控制,测定结果直接数字显示,具有测定速度快,分析过程时间短、精度高、操作简单,从而成为高效率、全自动的水分测定仪器。
主要用于石油、化工、医药、农药、炸药、纺织品、颜料、油漆、矿物原料等物质中水分的测定。

根据法拉第定律,同电荷量成正比例关系。
如下式;2Iˉ―2e―I2………⑶由(1)式可以看出,参加碘的克分子数等于水的克分子数。
把样品注入试剂中,样品中的水即参加反应,通过仪器可反映出反应过程中碘的消耗量,经仪器计算,在数字显示器上直接显示出测定的水分含量。
该仪器采用电解电流自动控制系统,电解电流的大小可根据样品中的含水量进行自动选择,最大300毫安,在电解过程中,水分逐渐减少,电解电流也随之按比例减小,直到相应的电解终点控制回路开启。
这一系统保证了分析过程中的高精度、高灵敏度和高速度。
另外,在做试验过程当中,难免会有一些干扰因素,如从空气中侵入的水分,使电解池吸潮,而产生空白电流。
SC-3微量水分测定仪操作规程一、开机准备工作:1、打开包装箱,如图安装好仪器。
2、将电极头两根铂丝平行分开,一端插入五口反应瓶电极接口处,另一端的插头插入电极插座。
3、用乳胶管连接五口反应瓶和滴定管,并在乳胶管中放入一个玻璃珠。
4、在小干燥管塞上开一个孔,插入滴定管,并在小干燥管内装入干燥剂。
5、关闭五口反应瓶上放排液进气口的玻璃阀门。
(如果需要将五口反应瓶中的液体排出,应打开排液进气口的玻璃阀门,堵住瓶上余下跑气口,用双链球加压将五口反应瓶中的液体排出。
6、在贮液瓶中倒入适量卡尔·费休试剂。
7、加入无水甲醇(分析纯于反应瓶中,至淹没电极铂丝即可。
8、用一手压住滴定管上的气孔,另一手用双链球加压,将卡尔·费休试剂缓缓地由贮液瓶压入滴定管的满刻度(零位后松手。
9、接通电源,打开电源,指示灯亮。
将选择开关置于“校正”位置,旋转“校正”旋钮,使电流表调到满度(50μA,然后将选择开关置于“测量”位置。
10、适当调节搅拌旋钮,使反应瓶中的液体在搅拌的作用下旋转。
二、测量方法:1、滴定甲醇的水份:(确定终点用手按动滴定管上的滴定玻璃珠,用卡尔·费休试剂滴定甲醇中的水份,此时电流表指示数值开始上升,随着卡尔·费休液不断滴入,电流表指示数值会逐步增大,反应瓶中的液体颜色也会由浅色转为棕色,当电流表接见45μA~48μA处,并基本不变,即可认为此值为滴定终点值。
2、标定卡尔·费休试剂:用双链球加压使卡尔·费休试剂到达滴定管的满刻度。
再用10微升微型注射器取10ul蒸馏水(G-标准水,通过加料入口橡皮盖中注入反应瓶中(不要将水溅到瓶壁,从而影响测量精度,这时反应瓶中原有棕色即可变为淡黄色,同时电流表数会由大变小直至最小。
这时,应进行滴定,随着卡尔·费休液不断滴入,电流表指示数值会逐步增大,反应瓶中的液体颜色也会产生变化,当电流表到达终点值且基本不变,即可认为此值为滴定终点值。
如何调试微量水分测定仪微量水分测定仪操作规程微量水分测定仪使用说明书,简单介绍如下:1、开箱后,检查配件是否齐全。
2、将固定电解池用(不同型号夹持器不同)夹持器,在主机上安装并旋紧。
3、将电解池从钙塑盒中小心取出,将2支电极,干燥管(嵌入在钙塑盒中),进样旋塞,电解池瓶塞取出,在所有磨口处涂很少一点真空脂或凡士林待用。
4、进样旋塞中间硅橡胶垫已经装好,*次扎入进样针时,很难扎入,可用硬针头先反复扎几次,也可将进样旋塞松一下。
5、将电解液瓶打开,将试剂倒入池瓶下刻度线以上。
再将电解液倒入电解电极(带网子的)中约2cm高,放置在池瓶的位置,将白色搅拌棒放入电解池液中为了电解液便于保存,新鲜电解液显棕黑色,颜色越深电解液越新鲜。
6、将测量电极(带2个小粕金柱头的细电极)、干燥管、瓶塞、进样旋塞放置在池瓶的相应位置。
将装好电解池放置在主机上,整个操作过程杜绝和水接触。
7、电解电极(带网子的)插头插到主机的电解插座上,将测量电极插头插到主机测量插座上。
电解池放正后刚好左边插左边,右边插右边。
8、打开主机后面电源开关,打开主机面板电解开关,打开搅拌开关。
调整主机搅拌速度调节钮,使液面有很小的旋涡状即可。
不能速度过快,过快搅拌子跳动会打坏电极。
9、用50微升进样器抽10微升水从进样旋塞口扎入,将针头扎到液面下。
注意:第1次可能很紧,可用手托一下,不能让针头弯曲。
这样反复几次用50微升进样器抽10微升水从进样旋塞口扎入,将水注入到电解液。
每进一次,要间隔10秒钟,观察颜色变化,待颜色变成棕红色时,进样量减为1微升水。
同样每进一次,要间隔10秒钟,观察颜色变化,待颜色变成浅黄色时开始计数,停止进水,计数至终点仪器报警,此时电解液即为新平衡点。
10、在正常测定样品前,为了确定仪器、电解池、电解液整个系统的正常和准确,可用0.5微升针进纯水进行标定,用0.5微升进样器进0.1微升水,显示在90110微克之间,说明仪器正常,可以正常使用。
GE微量水分析仪在聚乙烯装置中的应用状况及优化方法摘要:本文简单介绍了GE微量水在线分析仪表结构及其工作原理,着重描述了其在聚乙烯装置中应用的常见问题,并针对常见故障对其预处理部分提出合理的优化方法。
关键词:GE微量水在线分析仪表结构及工作原理预处理优化0 引言目前,在线分析使用的微量水分仪主要有电解式微量水分仪、电容式微量水分仪、晶体振荡式微量水分仪三种。
而我们公司主要采用GE的电容式微量水分析仪。
它的特点是气、液均可测,低含水量时精度高,响应时间快,维护方便。
缺点是氧化铝探头的湿敏性会随时间的推移逐步下降(老化现象),需要定期送厂家校准。
1 GE微量水分仪的构成及工作原理1.1 GE微量水分仪由三部分组成:(a). 探头部分(b). 取样、预处理部分(c). MIS1水分仪1.1.1 探头的测量原理:GE的MIS系列探头采用薄膜氧化铝技术,即通过特殊工艺在半透膜和三氧化二铝之间形成电容,并利用水的极性来测量微量水的含水量的一种技术。
就是以铝和能渗透水的黄金膜为极板,两极板间填以氧化铝微孔介质,多孔性的氧化铝可以从含有水分的气体中吸收水汽或者是从含有水分的液体中吸收水分,使得电容器两个极板之间介质的介电常数ε发生变化,从而电容量也随之变化。
通过检测该电导率的变化,可知水的分压值,再通过Goff定律(气态介质)转换成露点和微量水含量(ppmv),或者通过Henry定律(液态介质)转换成微量水含量(ppmw)。
但是值得注意的是在将露点与微量水含量(ppmv)进行相互转换时,介质的压力(对于气体)和温度(对于液体)是一个重要参数,故在微量水传感器上集成一个压力(温度)传感器显得尤为重要。
图1 电极及电容转换电路示意图故本次选用的MIS探头由TF探头和MISPE智能化前置电子处理器组成,可以测量气体和非水液体中从微量到常量的水分含量,可以满足不同量程,不同相态物质的测量。
同时此系列探头直接内置了温度、压力测量的元件,从而免除了安装与使用分离的温度、压力探头所带来的不便与限制。

微量水分测定仪测定仪操作规程一、概述本设备采用卡尔一菲休库仑滴定法,对不同物质进行微量水分测定,是一种最可靠的方法。
HTWS-6型微量水分测定仪成功的应用了这一方法。
二、样品测定1、液体样品以含量计算公式F3、F4为例:在仪器平衡的状态下(如图6),根据样品的含水量选择适当的进样器。
如前面所述的参数设定方法设定所进样品的体积V、密度SG和所用的公式F3(或F4)。
用待测试样冲洗所用的进样器,然后吸取V体积的样品,按【启动】后在60秒内从进样口注入样品,仪器将自动测定并打印结果。
测定完成后若需储存,可按【确认】键来存储结果;要进行下次测定根据仪器提示如上操作即可。
注:仪器在测定过程中可按【退出】键进行仪器设定,终点之前的设定都有效。
2、固体样品以Fl、F2为例:固体试样可能是粉末颗粒和团块等形状(大的团必须捣碎),可用V形管固体进样器(厂方可提供)进样。
V形管固体进样器干燥后,装入适量的固体样品,然后称重(总重W),根据参数设定的方法设定好公式Fl(或F2)及W(总重),按【启动】后从进样口加入样品,然后再称重(皮重w),输入参数w,仪器到达终点并打印结果即可。
注:公式Fl、F3、F5结果为PPm,F2、F4、F6为百分率。
3、历史数据每次试验结束后可以按【确认】键对数据进行存储,如要查询可在图10的界面下选择历史数据按【确认】键进行查询。
三、注意事项1、电解池的注意事项(1)在正常的测定过程中,每100毫升电解液可与不小于l 克的水反应,如测定时间过长,电解液敏感下降,应更换新鲜电解液。
(2)阴极室中的电解液,如果在滴定过程中发现释放出强烈的气泡或电解液被污染成褐色,此时空白电流会增大,测量的再现性降低,还会使到达终点的时间加长,这种情况应尽快更换电解液。
(3)滴定时间超过半个小时,仪器尚不能稳定,此时应按搅拌开关停止搅拌,观察陶瓷滤板下部阳极上是否有明显的棕色碘产生,如果没有或产碘很少,则应更换电解液。

Moisture Monitor Series 3 is aone- or two-channel analyzer designed to measure dissolved moistureconcentration in gases and non-aqueous liquids, and dissolvedoxygen concentration in gases.A microprocessor-based instrument, the Series 3 combines hardwareand software to make various measurements. The user connects theneeded inputs (moisture probes, pressure transmitters, oxygen cells,etc.) to the back panel of the electronics unit using the appropriatecables. Typically, the user installs moisture probes and oxygen cellsinto the process using a sample system that is specifically designedfor the application. The sample system delivers a sample of theprocess gas or liquid to the probes. The probes then send signals tothe Series 3 electronics unit, which interprets the signals and convertsthem into measurements.Users typically install the Series 3 as part of a complex processsystem, which includes components such as filters, pumps, andpressure regulators. In such an environment, probes and other parts ofthe system may be subjected to environmental hazards, such as hightemperature, pressure extremes, corrosive elements, and mechanicalvibrations.!WARNING!To ensure the safe operation of this unit, you must installand operate the Series 3 as described in this manual. Inaddition, be sure to follow all applicable safety codes andregulations for installing electrical equipment in your area. Unpacking the Series 3Upon receipt, unpack the Series 3 and make sure all the parts anddocumentation listed on the packing slip are included. The packingslip may not list the Calibration Data Sheet(s), which are usuallypacked in the plastic storage case with the moisture, oxygen, andpressure probes. You may also find the Calibration Data Sheet(s) inan envelope taped to the Series 3. There should be one CalibrationData Sheet for each probe.Be sure to inspect each component, including the sample system, forevidence of mishandling. If anything has been damaged, report this tothe carrier and to GE Infrastructure Sensing, Inc. immediately. Youshould leave the plastic caps on the probes and the pressuretransmitters when they are not installed in the process stream. Ifanything is missing, contact GE Infrastructure Sensing, Inc.immediately.August 20041-2G eneral InformationChecking the Delta F Oxygen Cell for Leakage Before connecting the Delta F Oxygen Cell(s), you must check it fordamage and/or leakage. Depending on the application, the oxygencell may have a top drain or both a top and bottom drain for theelectrolyte reservoir. It is important to identify your cell for thefollowing procedure. Use Figure 1-1 below to identify your cell.1.Remove the top of the electrolyte reservoir.IMPORTANT:If your cell also has a bottom drain, make sure thatthe electrolyte discharge valve, mounted on the rearof the oxygen cell, is closed (in the vertical position).See Figure 1-1 below.2.Add approximately three ounces (100 ml) of distilled water to thereservoir and replace the top.ing the min/max window (see Figure 1-2 on the next page) onthe oxygen cell, check the water level. The water should coverabout 60% of the window.4.Let the oxygen cell stand for about 6 hours; then check for anyleakage.5.If there is no leakage, drain the cell completely.If the cell leaks, see the warranty information at the beginning of thismanual.August 2004 Checking the Delta F(cont.)Choosing a Site The Series 3 is available in rack, bench or panel mounts that aresuitable for most indoor installations, as well as weatherproof andexplosion-proof configurations. See the drawings at the end of thischapter for an example of each enclosure.You should have discussed environmental and installation factorswith an applications engineer or field sales person by the time youreceive the Series 3. The equipment should be suited to theapplication and installation site.Before installing the unit, read the guidelines below to verify that youhave selected the best installation site.IMPORTANT:For compliance with the EU’s Low Voltage Directive(IEC 1010), this unit requires an external powerdisconnect device. The disconnect device for this unitis its power cord.G eneral Information1-3August 20041-4G eneral InformationChoosing a Site (cont.)!WARNING!Division 2 applications may require special installation.Consult the National Electric Codeand/or the Canadian Electrical Code for proper installation requirements. The analyzer must be configured in asuitable equipment enclosure and installed according tothe sections of the National Electric Code, Article 500, andCanadian Electrical Code, Section 18, that pertain to thehazardous environment classification in which theelectronics will be used.•Choose an installation site for the probes and sample systems thatis as close to the process line as possible. Avoid long runs ofconnecting tubing. If long distances are unavoidable, a fastsampling by-pass loop is recommended. Do not install any othercomponents, such as filters, ahead of the probes or sample systemunless instructed by GE Infrastructure Sensing, Inc. to do so.•Observe all normal safety precautions. Use probes within theirmaximum pressure and temperature ratings.•Although the Series 3 may not need to be accessed during normaloperation, install the electronics unit at a convenient location forprogramming, testing and servicing. A control room or instrumentshed are typical locations.•Locate the electronics unit away from high temperatures, strongelectrical transients, mechanical vibrations, corrosive atmospheres,and any other conditions that could damage or interfere with theSeries 3 operation.•Protect the probe cables from excessive physical strain (bending,pulling, twisting, etc.). In addition, do not subject the cables totemperatures above 65°C (149°F) or below –50°C (–58°F).•Observe the proper cable restrictions for the probes as follows:•The M Series and TF Series probes require specially shieldedcable. You can locate the M and TF probes up to 600 m (2,000ft) from the Series 3. If you are measuring pressure with a TFprobe, the cable length should not exceed 152 m (500 ft).•The Delta-F Oxygen Cell uses a four-wire shielded cable 22AWG). Cells with a range from 0 to 1/10/100 ppm v or 0 to 0.5/5/50 ppm v can be located up to 15 m (50 ft) away. All othercells can be located up to 91 m (300 ft) away.Consult GE Infrastructure Sensing, Inc. for remote location of theoxygen cell and cable restrictions for other sensors.August 2004 Grounding the Series 3The Series 3 case is grounded to the electrical system safety groundthrough the third wire in the power connector and cord (refer toFigure 1-3 below). This ground should not be removed.Moisture/Temperature Probe Considerations The M Series and TF Series probes consist of an aluminum oxide sensor mounted on a connector head. Standard probe mounts include a protective stainless-steel shield.The probe sensor materials and housing maximize durability and insure a minimum of water-adsorbing surfaces in the vicinity of the aluminum oxide surface. A sintered stainless-steel shield is used to protect the sensor from high flow rates and particulate matter. The shield should not be removed except upon advice from GE Infrastructure Sensing, Inc..The sensor has been designed to withstand normal shock and vibration. You should make sure that the active sensor surface is never touched or allowed to come into direct contact with foreign objects, since this may adversely affect performance.Observing these few simple precautions will result in a long and useful probe life. GE Infrastructure Sensing, Inc. recommends that probe calibration be checked routinely, at 6-month intervals, or as recommended by our applications engineers for your particular application.The probe will measure the water vapor pressure in its immediate vicinity; therefore, readings will be influenced by its proximity to the system walls, materials of construction, and other environmental factors. The sensor can be operated under vacuum or pressure, flowing or static conditions.Observe the environmental precautions noted on the next page.G eneral Information1-5August 2004Temperature Range The standard probe is operable from –110°C to +70°C (–166°F to158°F).Moisture Condensation Be sure the temperature is at least 10°C (18°F) higher than the dew/frost point temperature. If this condition is not maintained, moisturecondensation could occur on the sensor or in the sample system,which will cause reading errors. If this happens, dry out the probefollowing the procedures outlined in Chapter 3.Static or Dynamic Use The sensor performs equally well in still air or where considerableflow occurs. Its small size makes it ideal for measuring moistureconditions within completely sealed containers or dry boxes. It willalso perform well under gas flow conditions as high as 10,000 cm/secand liquid flow conditions to 10 cm/sec. Refer to Table 1-1 below andTable 1-2 on the next page for maximum flow rates in gases andliquids.Table 1-1: Maximum G as Flow RatesBased on the physical characteristics of air at a temperature of77°F and a pressure of 1 atm, the following flow rates willproduce the maximum allowable gas stream linear velocity of10,000 cm/sec in the corresponding pipe sizes.Inside Pipe Diameter (in.)G as Flow Rate (cfm)0.2570.50270.75601.01072.04293.09664.01,7185.02,6846.03,8657.05,2618.06,8719.08,69710.010,73711.012,99112.015,4611-6G eneral InformationG eneral Information 1-7August 2004Static or Dynamic Use(cont.)Pressure The moisture probe always senses the correct water vapor pressureregardless of total ambient pressure. The moisture sensor measureswater vapor under vacuum or high pressure conditions from as littleas 5 µm Hg to as high as 5,000 psi total pressure.Long-Term Storage & Operational Stability Sensors are not affected by continuous abrupt humidity changes ordamaged by exposure to saturation conditions even when stored.However, you should store probes in their original shipping containerin a clean, dry location. If the probe is saturated during storage, referto Moisture Condensation on later in this chapter before installing theprobe. For best performance, do not store probes longer than one totwo years from their calibration date.Freedom from Interference The sensor is completely unaffected by the presence of a wide varietyof gases or organic liquids. Large concentrations of hydrocarbongases, Freon ®, ozone, carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, andhydrogen have no effect on sensor water vapor indications. Thesensor will operate properly in a multitude of gaseous or non-conductive liquid environments.Corrosive MaterialsAvoid all materials that are corrosive or otherwise damaging toaluminum or aluminum oxide. These include strongly acidic or basicmaterials and primary amines.Table 1-2: Maximum Liquid Flow RatesBased on the physical characteristics of benzene at atemperature of 77°F , the following flow rates will produce themaximum allowable fluid linear velocity of 10 cm/sec in thecorresponding pipe sizes.Pipe I.D.

The applicationrequirements determine the design of the sample system. GEInfrastructure Sensing, Inc. applications engineers will makerecommendations based on the following general guidelines.Moisture Sample SystemsTypically, sample systems should contain as few components aspossible and all or most of those components should be locateddownstream of the measurement probe. Figure 1-4 below shows anexample of a basic sample system consisting of an explosion-proofhousing with a sample cell, a filter, a flow meter, a vent valve andtwo-shut off valves, one at the inlet and one at the outlet.The sample system components should not be made of any materialthat will affect measurements. A sample system may include a filterto remove particulates from the sample stream or a pressure regulatorto reduce or control the pressure of the stream. However, mostcommon filters and pressure regulators are not suitable for samplesystems because they have wetted parts that may absorb or releasecomponents (such as moisture) into the sample stream. They may alsoallow ambient contamination to enter the sample stream. In general,you should use stainless steel material for all wetted parts.August 2004 Oxygen Sample Systems Oxygen sample systems are required and can be be ordered from GEInfrastructure Sensing, Inc. for bench or wall mounting, or you canbuild your own sample system by using the following guidelines.IMPORTANT:The GE Infrastructure Sensing, Inc. warranty is void,if the sample system does not have a relief valve.The basic sample system requirements are (see Figure 1-5 below):1.The oxygen cell requires a sample gas flow of2.0 to 2.5 SCFH.2.The sample gas pressure in the cell must be between 0.0 and 1.0psig. The pressure must not exceed 1.0 psig.3.A 10 psig pressure relief valve installed upstream of the oxygencell is required to prevent over-pressure.4.A flow meter is required to measure the flow.5.A pressure gauge is required to measure the pressure.6.A flow regulating or needle valve is required to regulate flow andshould be located upstream of the cell.7.A pressure regulator is required for sample gas supplies of 50 psigor greater.If a sample pump is required to draw a sample to the oxygen cell, thepump should be installed downstream of the oxygen cell. This willalso require you to install a vacuum relief valve set at 1.0 psigbetween the oxygen cell and the pump.G eneral Information1-9。
