1.1 Introduction
NOTE
This manual refers to the following xendos 1800 and 1900 analysers;
product numbers 1800A1, 1802A1, 1900A1, 1902A1, 1800A2, 1802A2,
1900A2, 1902A2, 1800B1 and 1900B1. The general text in this manual
refers to all ten product numbers, except where specifically stated. All
analysers with Serial Numbers less than 2500 are prior to analyser
release 1800B1 and 1900B1 and use the transducers assemblies 01156A.
Analysers with Serial Numbers greater than 2500 are analyser release
1800B1 or 1900B1 and use transducers assemblies 01158. The analyser
Serial Number is marked on the main identification label.
This manual contains essential information for the servicing of the Servomex
Xendos 1800 Series and 1900 Series Oxygen Analysers. Some components
referenced in this manual are specific to either the Xendos 1800 Series or the
Xendos 1900 Series. Where this is the case then this is highlighted in the
manual text.
This service manual is intended for use by Servomex trained service personnel.
The manual contains technical descriptions, fault diagnosis information, parts
removal, refitting and test instructions, tool and test equipment lists. Electrical
drawings are bound at the rear of this manual.
WARNING
The Xendos units are available in a number of versions based on the Servomex
paramagnetic transducer. They are divided into two series of analysers as below.
The internal switched mode power supply on the ac inlet enables the unit to be
installed anywhere in the world without modification to the internal wiring. (Note:
sample pumps, where fitted, are voltage and frequency specific.)
CAUTION
On Xendos 1800 units fitted with the optional sample pump; the power
supply voltage and frequency is dictated by the sample pump type fitted.
As standard the analysers are fitted with a stainless steel cell with viton pipe
work.
The enclosure design provides ease of access to all internal components. Refer
to Section 5 for dismantling procedures.
High purity oxygen measurements are made using a Servomex 1156A or 1158
magneto-dynamic paramagnetic transducer. The measurement cell is
temperature controlled at approximatly 40oC (50oC for 1156A transducers) to
minimise the effects of ambient temperature variations on the accuracy of
measurement. The small internal volume and special gas flow characteristics
provide fast response and minimal flow errors.
WARNING
WARNING
The Xendos 1900 Series hazardous area analysers are not suitable for
use with oxygen enriched samples and should not be used for oxygen
concentrations exceeding 22%.
Oxygen concentration alarms are by means of two volt-free relay outputs and a
LED on the control panel. The alarm outputs can be configured to be high or low
alarms by the user. The set point is adjustable over the range 0 to 100% oxygen.
The internal switch mode power supply is designed to accept universal mains
voltages from 100 to 240 V ± 10% ac, 50 to 60 Hz and is not affected by mains
voltage selection. (see Caution on next page)
CAUTION
Note that if the optional internal sample pump is fitted (1800 only) the
electrical supply must be of the correct voltage and frequency for the
sample pump fitted.
The sample gas requirements will differ according to the options fitted. Refer to
Section 2 for details.
The various Sections of this service manual cover the following topics:
The left hand compartment (1) houses the sample pipework, transducer
assembly, control assembly, display panel and any factory fitted options.
The right hand compartment (2) houses the electrical terminals PCB and
switched mode power supply. In the case of the Xendos 1900 Series the
right hand compartment also houses the protection assembly.
The left hand sample compartment has a hinged cover (9) secured by 4
screws (6) and sealed by a Viton 'O' ring (7). A glass window (8) in the
cover provides visual access to the display panel LCD, power LED, flow
and oxygen alarm LEDs, sensitivity range LEDs and the range label.
With the hinged cover open, access is given to the display panel including
Span and Zero calibration presets (3, 2), the Alarm Set button (4) and
Alarm set point potentiometers (5). Access is also given to the Range
select button (12). If the optional Automatic Flow Control Device (AFCD)
is fitted, it will be necessary to check the sample filter (14) periodically to
prevent it from becoming blocked (refer to Section 5.6).
The display panel is hinged on its left hand edge and secured by a pawl
latch (9). With the display panel hinged open, access is given to the
transducer assembly and housekeeping PCB and any sample options
fitted.
WARNING
The right hand terminals compartment has a lift off cover (4)
secured by four screws (5)and sealed with a Viton 'O' ring. The
Xendos 1800 is only suitable for installation in a safe, non-
hazardous area and is not suitable for use with flammable sample
gases.
When the threaded access cover (4) is fully engaged, the cover
position is locked via a M4 grub screw (5).

Figure 2.8 - Xendos 1900 Series electrical block diagram with 01158 and 01156A Transducers
Refer to the appropriate Circuit Diagram of the Terminals PCB. The a.c.
mains supply at terminal block TB3 is applied to the switched mode
power supply connector PL3 via the line fuse F1 and the EMC filter X1.
The d.c. power rails from the power supply return on connector PL2. The
power supply features overvoltage and short circuit protection with
automatic restart.
The auxiliary fused and filtered mains outlet at connector PL4 is used to
provide power to the optional sample pump on the Xendos 1800.
Connector PL4 is not used on the Xendos 1900.
The voltage-free alarm relay changeover contacts are available at TB2 via
EMC filters: Alarm 1 at pins 1,2 and 3; Alarm 2 at pins 4, 5 and 6; optional
flow failure alarm at pins 7, 8 and 9; and range indication at pins 10, 11
and 12.
The customer analogue outputs are available at TB4 via EMC filters. All
other input/outputs are via connector PL1.
The analogue signals are derived from the transducer signal at PL1 1,3.
On the Xendos 1900 Series these signals are routed via the protection
assembly to maintain intrinsically safe conditions within the sample
compartment. The signal is filtered, buffered and output on TB4 (1, 2) as
the non-isolated analogue voltage output. The signal also goes via the
the isolated analogue output circuit, which includes zero and span set
potentiometers, to TB4 (3, 4).
The analyser heater control signal arriving at PL1 8 is fed to the power
switching transistor to control the heater power.
NOTE
The protection assembly is only used on the Xendos 1900 Series and is
not provided with the Xendos 1800 Series.
WARNING
Two Zener shunts are necessary to transmit the power required to heat
the transducer. Each shunt includes three Zener diodes and two power
resistors connected in series.
The remaining ten Zener shunts transmit the + 5 V and - 5 V power rails
to the sample compartment and transmit the analogue and digital signal
from the sample compartment to the terminals compartment.
The output signal from the paramagnetic transducer at PL2 (9,10) is fed
through the filter network and the differential amplifier to the display to
show the Oxygen concentration. Links are provided to preset the two
analogue output ranges. The analogue output range is selected by the
push-button Range switch on the Display PCB.
1. Mirror 4. Amplifier
2. Sample cell 5. Optical carrier
3. Dumb-bell 6. Photocell assembly
Two glass spheres, filled with an inert gas are fixed to the ends of a bar
to form a dumb-bell which is sealed (3). The sample gas surrounds the
dumb-bell in the sample cell (2). The dumb-bell is suspended in a
symmetrical but non-uniform magnetic field. The dumb-bell is slightly
diamagnetic so that it rotates by a few degrees to take up a position away
from the most intense part of the magnetic field.
If the sample gas contains oxygen, then the oxygen molecules will be
attracted into the strongest part of the magnetic field increasing the gas
pressure at this point. This pushes the dumb-bell further out of the
magnetic field due to the relatively stronger force on the paramagnetic
oxygen. The magnitude of the torque acting on the dumb-bell will be
proportional to the magnetic susceptibility of the surrounding gases and
hence proportional to the oxygen concentration.
All materials in contact with the sample are highly resistant to aggressive
substances. The internal design of the cell body has a special flow
channel to optimise the flow characteristics, while the internal volume is
kept to a minimum to provide an excellent response time. The optical
carrier (5) has provisions for adjustment of the photocell mount for setting
the initial zero and also incorporates the LED light source and
temperature sensing devices.
The control electronics on the transducer control PCB provide all of the
functions necessary to provide operation of the transducer and to produce
an electrical output proportional to the partial pressure of oxygen. This
PCB is mounted either externally to the transducer or on later versions
internally.
NOTE
The transducer module and its control PCB are supplied together.
During factory test the control PCB is adjusted to compensate for
the zero temperature coefficient of the measuring cell. It is not
practical to perform this procedure in the field. The transducer
module and control PCB must therefore be replaced together at
the same time.
All electrical connections are made to the terminals PCB inside the right hand
enclosure of the analyser (see figure 2.9). Full specifications are given in Table
2.1. To gain access refer to Figure 5.2, slacken off the M4 grub screw which
locks the cover and unscrew the cover with the aid of a bar if needed. The cover
thread is pre-greased and no additional non-setting sealant is required. After
electrical connections are complete, ensure the threads are correctly aligned,
screw the cover fully down and re-tighten the grub screw to lock the cover.
WARNING
The sample and calibration gases may be toxic or asphyxiant. Verify that
connections are leak free at full operating pressure before applying
sample and calibration gases.
Instrument vent gases may also be toxic. They should be vented into a
suitable area.
The Xendos 1800 Series are not suitable for operation with flammable
gases.
CAUTION
The sample gas must not exceed the specified pressure or flow rate or
damage can occur to the measuring cell.
When leak testing the system ensure that the pressure is increased and
decreased slowly. High internal flow rates when pressure is changed
rapidly will damage the measuring cell.
The sample port locations and sizes are given in Figures 2.4 and 2.5. The
sample conditioning requirements are given in Tables 2.2 and 2.3.
The optional sample pump, back pressure regulator and automatic flow
control device are not available for use with solvent resistant cells.
If the automatic flow control device option is fitted no external flow control is
necessary, the sample pressure must be between the limits specified in the
above table. If the automatic flow control device option is not fitted it will be
necessary to regulate the sample pressure / flow within the limits specified in the
above table to ensure stable operation and to prevent damage to the measuring
cell.
If the optional flow alarm is fitted then the red flow alarm indicator will flash if the
sample flow falls below a satisfactory level.
If the automatic flow control device option is fitted no external flow control is
necessary, the sample pressure must be between the limits specified in the
above table and/or Technical Data Sheet.
If the optional automatic flow control device option is not fitted, it will be
necessary to regulate the sample pressure / flow within the limits specified in the
above table to ensure stable operation and to prevent damage to the measuring
cell.
If the optional flow alarm is fitted then the red flow alarm indicator will flash if the
sample flow falls below a satisfactory level.
The sample inlet and outlet connection sizes and locations are shown in Figure
2.5.
The sample gas enters the AFCD through the gas inlet port (1). This port is
fitted with an orifice restriction to limit the total sample flow. A 0.6Fm cylindrical
filter element (8) prevents particulate contamination of the transducer. A ball
and spring valve (4 and 5) generates a constant pressure difference between the
sample outlet port (2) and the sample bypass port (3). The bypass port is fitted
with an orifice restriction to control the sample flow rate to the transducer.
Excess sample gas is exhausted through the bypass port (3). If the optional flow
alarm is fitted then the orifice restriction in the sample outlet port is omitted and
the separate orifice restriction included within the flow alarm hardware controls
the sample flow to the transducer.
The spring tension is adjusted via the screw control (6). This is factory set and
sealed. The transducer flow rate is adjusted by changing the diameter of the
orifice restriction in the sample outlet port. The spring tension should only be
adjusted in cases where the pressure pulsing on the outlet port results in
excessive noise on the measured concentration reported.
If the automatic flow control device is fitted, no external flow control is necessary.
The sample pressure must be within the limits specified in Tables 2.2 and 2.3.
The filter is not intended to provide primary sample conditioning but only to
provide backup protection for the transducer. It is recommended that the filter be
replaced at 3 monthly intervals. This period may be extended for clean samples.
Refer to section 5.6 for removal and replacement instructions.
6 5
The optional low flow alarm for the Xendos 1800 (see Figure 5.8 E) is an integral
unit which is inserted in the sample line to the transducer inlet. The flow alarm
produces an output if the sample flow falls below the preset value. The sample
flow is detected by measuring the pressure drop across an orifice restriction. In
the Xendos 1800 flow alarm this pressure drop is measured using a differential
pressure switch. The orifice restriction and differential pressure switch are
integral to the flow alarm unit and are not user serviceable.
The flow alarm option is also available in conjunction with the AFCD, sample
pump and back pressure regulator options (Figure 5.8 B, C and D).
The optional flow alarm for the Xendos 1900 (see Figure 5.8 F) operates by
measuring the pressure drop across an orifice restrictor in the sample line to the
transducer. In the Xendos 1900 this pressure drop is detected by two gauge
pressure switches P1 and P2.
The Xendos 1900 flow alarm option is not available with the stainless steel
pipework option and is not tolerant to solvent loaded samples.
The following spare patrs apply to the 1800B1 and 1900B1 analysers only (analyser
with serial numbers 2500 and above). For spare parts prior to these releases, see the
original Quickstart manuals supplied with the analyser.
WARNING
The following spares are required to maintain normal operation of the Xendos 1800
analyser.
WARNING
The following spares are required to maintain normal operation of the Xendos 1900
analysers.
The following spare items are also available for the analyser.
4.1 Introduction
WARNING
Symptoms:
1. Check that the supply voltage is present on the TB3 terminals; TB3 pin 1
is the live connection, TB3 pin 2 is the neutral connection and TB3 pin 3
is the earth connection. If the supply voltage does not reach TB3, check
the installation wiring, connections and any associated fuses. If the supply
voltage at TB3 is satisfactory, proceed to the next point.
2. Check the mains fuse (F1) on the Terminals PCB and replace it if
necessary. If the front panel display is still without power, proceed to the
next point.
3. Check the low voltage outputs from the power supply in accordance with
the Table 4.1.
These voltages can be measured on the Terminal board behind the label.
WARNING
Parts of the power supply are connected to the mains and mains
supply is also present on the Terminals board. It is necessary to
fault find with the electrical power connected. Therefore extreme
caution should be exercised.
PL2 is the row of pads at the top of the board and pin 1 is on the right. If
any voltage is outside the limits stated in Table 4.1 replace the power
supply. If the voltages are still outside the limits the fault must be
assumed to be on one of the four PCBs. Replace the PCBs in turn in
order to identify the faulty PCB. If the voltages are within the limits and
the display panel is still without power, proceed to the next point.
If any voltage is outside the limits stated in Table 4.2, disconnect the PL1
connector and check the voltages again. If the voltages are still outside
the limits, check that the that the ribbon cable between the Protection
block module and the Terminals PCB is not damaged (Xendos 1900
Series only). If the ribbon cable is not damaged, replace the Protection
block module. If the voltages are within the limits proceed to the next
step.
Symptoms:
Check:
1. Determine the general nature of the fault and the conditions under
which it occurs.
5. If the condition in point ‘3' above can be achieved the fault is with
the transducer or gas sampling system.
Symptoms:
C Unstable reading
C Noisy reading.
C Reading drifts.
C Instrument requires frequent re-calibration.
NOTE
3. Verify that the sample flow rate through the transducer is in the
range 50 to 250 ml/min (50 to 70 l/hr, for analysers fitted with high
flow cells) and is stable. Check that any flow restrictors within the
instrument are not blocked. Correct or replace where necessary
and re-verify the instrument performance.
4. Perform a leak test to verify that the internal pipework is free from
leaks. Tighten fittings and replace seals or tubing where
necessary and re-verify the instrument performance.
CAUTION
Verify that the sample filter is not blocked or wet and that the
restrictors in each of the ‘inlet’ and ‘sample’ hose fittings of the
AFCD are not blocked. Ensure that there are no obstructions in the
AFCD or instrument vent line and that the instrument vents freely
to atmosphere. Note that dirt or liquid deposits within the AFCD
can produce excessive noise or unstable readings. Replace the
filter or AFCD as necessary and re-verify the performance.
Verify that the restrictor within the flow alarm assembly is not
blocked. If necessary, replace the flow alarm assembly and re-
verify the instrument performance.
Verify that the vent flow from the back pressure regulator is within
the range 1 to 2 litres / min and is stable.
NOTE
13. If none of these checks cure the problem then replace the
transducer and verify the instrument performance.
Symptoms:
3. Verify the contents of the calibration gas samples and check that
the calibration gases are correctly connected. Check that the
calibration gas container is not empty and ensure that the gas is
reaching the instrument. Correct or replace where necessary and
perform instrument calibration to verify performance.
CAUTION
6. Verify that the sample flow rate through the transducer is in the
range 50 to 250 ml/min (50 to 70 l/hr, for analysers fitted with high
flow cells) and is stable. Check that any flow restrictors within the
instrument are not blocked. Correct or replace where necessary
and re-verify the instrument performance.
Verify that the sample filter is not blocked or wet and that the
restrictors in each of the ‘inlet’ and ‘sample’ hose fittings of the
AFCD are not blocked. Ensure that there are no obstructions in the
AFCD or instrument vent line and that the instrument vents freely
to atmosphere.
Verify that the restrictor within the flow alarm assembly is not
blocked. If necessary, replace the flow alarm assembly and re-
verify the instrument performance.
10. Verify that the instrument exhaust port is not restricted and that the
instrument is not being pressurised above ambient pressure.
Correct or replace where necessary and perform instrument
calibration to verify performance.
11. If none of these checks cure the problem then replace the
transducer and verify the instrument performance.
Symptoms:
1. Check which options are fitted and refer to the appropriate sample
flow diagram (see Figure 5.8).
2. Verify that the sample flow rate through the transducer is in the
range 50-250 ml/min (50 to 70 l/hr, for analysers fitted with high
flow cells) and is stable. If any flow stability problems are
encountered, verify that they are not produced by any sample
conditioning system used prior to sample entry into the instrument.
Particular attention should be made to knock out pots, sample
pumps, chillers and filters. Correct or replace where necessary
and re-verify instrument performance.
4. Perform a leak test to verify that the internal pipework is free from
leaks. Correct or replace where necessary and re-verify the
instrument performance.
CAUTION
5. Verify that the optional sample filter (if fitted) is clean and not
blocked. Correct or replace where necessary and re-verify
instrument performance.
6. Verify that the sample flow through the transducer is in the range
50 to 250 ml/min (50 to 70 l/hr, for analysers fitted with high flow
cells) and is stable. Check that the orifice flow restrictors within the
instrument are not blocked. Correct or replace where necessary
and re-verify instrument performance.
Symptoms:
1. When the flow failure alarm operates, the analogue outputs will optionally
be driven ‘off scale’ in either a positive or negative polarity according to
the position of link LK6 on the Housekeeping PCB.
2. Verify that the sample flow through the transducer is within the range 100
to 250 ml/min. Refer also to Section 4.3.4. For 1900 analysers, verify that
the sample gas vents freely to atmosphere.
3. Temporarily move the link LK5 on the Housekeeping PCB into the upper
position. In this position, the link disables the flow alarm. The flow alarm
LED on the display panel should be off; the flow alarm relay energised
(terminals 8 and 9 on terminal block TB2 on the Terminals PCB should
be short circuit); and the analogue output voltage and current should
reflect the oxygen concentration. If any of these conditions are not
correct, the Housekeeping PCB, Display PCB, or the Terminals PCB
should be substituted until the fault is located and rectified. Ensure that
link LK5 on the Housekeeping PCB is replaced into the lower position
(FLAL).
Verify that with a flow of nominally 100 ml/min the switch contacts are
closed and with a flow below 50 ml/min the contacts are open. If
necessary replace the flow sensor assembly and revalidate the
instrument performance.
Symptoms:
Check that the respective LED is working on the front panel (alarm LED for the
alarm relay, range LED for the range relay or flow LED for the flow alarm relay).
If the LED is working on the front panel, change the Terminals PCB. Check the
connection cable and that the connectors are fully inserted before changing the
Terminals PCB. If the front panel LED is not working, replace in turn the Display
PCB or Housekeeping PCB.
Symptoms:
The voltage output or current output does not correspond to the Oxygen
concentration on the display.
2. Carry out a zero and span calibration and check that the digital display
corresponds to the concentration of the calibration gases used. Change
the transducer if you cannot set either the zero or span concentration on
the display.
Symptoms:
The range LEDs do not change when the range switch is pressed.
Symptoms:
+ The set point alarm is unstable.
+ The alarm can not be set at the desired level.
+ The alarm does not activate for the specified concentration.
1. Check that the voltage at test point TP3 with respect to TP2 on the
Housekeeping PCB is 620mV±2mV (635mV±2mV for 1156A
transducers). If the voltage is outside the limits, set the voltage using the
RV1 potentiometer on the Housekeeping PCB.
3. If the heating voltages on TB3 pins 1 and 2 are lower than 5 Volts and the
voltage on TP3 is lower than 618mV (633mV for 1156A transducers),
change the Housekeeping PCB.
NOTE
5.1 Introduction
The Xendos instrument is designed for ease of access for maintenance. Covers
are easily removed and refitted and internal PCBs and components are easily
replaceable. Before opening the compartments, brush off any dust and wipe
away any oil or liquid which could contaminate or damage the seals. Take care
when removing or refitting PCBs and components to avoid sharp edges.
WARNING
The Xendos Unit weighs approximately 26kg (57lbs) and care must be
taken when handling. It is recommended that it is lifted with the fingers
positioned underneath the rear casting.
On the Xendos 1900 Series the Terminals compartment on the right hand
side of the analyser must not be opened while energised or within 3
minutes following removal of power to allow time for capacitors to
discharge.
The non-hazardous terminals compartment of the Xendos 1800 Series are fitted
with a Viton ‘O’ ring sealed cover secured by four screws.
Removal
1. Undo the 4 captive M6 screws (5) and lift off the cover (4).
2. To gain access to the electrical terminals and the mains fuse, remove the
retaining screw (1) and lift out the clear plastic cover (3) which insulates
the terminals. Be sure to refit the plastic cover (3) when you reassemble
the analyser as it is a safety item.
Refitting
1. Check that all the electrical connections are secure, check the insulating
label (2) position and refit the clear plastic cover (3) and secure it with the
screw (1).
2. Check that the 'O' ring seal (6) in the cover is correctly located and
undamaged. Wipe the 'O' ring and mating surfaces to remove any dust
or grease.
3. Refit the cover (4) and secure it with the 4 captive screws (5).

4. Remove the black high density foam thermal insulation boot (1) from the
transducer assembly (2). Ease it off progressively as it is a tight fit and
wires are fed through slots in the boot. At the same time thread the
ribbon cable (17) through the hole in the thermal insulation boot until the
boot is free from the transducer assembly.
5. Disconnect the transducer earth tag (15) from the transducer mounting
bracket (16).
7. Undo the heater coil inlet pipe and sample exit pipe from the transducer
measurement cell.
8. Gently work off the thermal base (3) from the isolation mounts (4) and
undo the 3 isolation mounts (4) to release the heater coil plate (18).
C Check that the heater wires are carefully routed around the
transducer body to the exit point on the black thermal boot and
not snagged. Ensure the heater wire sleeving is pushed far
enough through the boot to be encased by the thermal boot.
C Note that the black thermal boot is a tight fit onto the transducer
and care is needed on insertion to avoid dislodging the heater
wires and ribbon cable.
This procedure is only applicable to 1156A transducers serial numbers 1250 and above,
and to all 1158 transducers. It should only be attempted with the instrument in a service
workshop on a suitable bench. Clean and dry Nitrogen and Air supplies are required,
controlled either by a needle-valve and flowmeter or AFCD to provide a flow rate of
100mL/min maximum.
3. Pull off the thermal boot (1) and disconnect ribbon cable (17) from the
transducer (2).
4. Disconnect the sample pipe connections and remove the three nuts and washers
(10) from under the transducer assembly. (note that the wires to the heating
resistors can remain connected)
5. Unsolder the yellow and black wires from the measuring cell and with an Allen
key loosen the cell locking clamp screw. Grip the cell by the sides and pull the
cell out of the magnet frame. (note that the magnet will exert a very strong
holding force on the cell)
6. The replacement cell must be fitted the correct way up with the yellow spot
connection at the top. With the cell fully home tighten the cell locking clamp
screw and resolder the wires to the cell with the yellow wire to the connection
marked with the yellow spot.
7. Refit the transducer to the bracket and reconnect the sample pipes using new
‘O’ rings and only tighten the connector nuts one half turn beyond finger tight.
9. Set the Zero on the front panel to mid point (5 turns from either end).

analyser with the housekeeping board towards the analyser. Connect the display
ribbon cable (9) and the 15 way cable from the analyser to the houskeeping
board.
11. Ensure the electrical safety of all parts and power-up the analyser.
12. Set RV1 on the transducer control PCB (13) to mid position (12 turns from either
end).
13. Loosen photo cell clamping screw and slide photo cell assembly a small amount
left or right as required to obtain a display reading of zero within 2%. Tighten the
screw and ensure the display reading is still within limits.
14. Adjust the ZERO pot on the top of the 1158 transducer for a display reading of
zero within 2%
SETTING SPAN (1156A and 1158) (follows on from cell change procedure)
15. Set the Span control on the front panel fully clockwise (maximum). Connect the
Air supply (100ml/min) to the transducer input pipe. Adjust the coarse span pot
for the transducer as defined below:
For 1156A the coarse span pot is RV3 on the transducer control board (13).
For 1158 the coarse span pot is marked Coarse Span on the top of the
transducer.
16. Remove power from the analyser and re-assemble with reference to sections 5.9
and 5.16.
17. Calibrate analyser for fine setting of front panel Zero and Span controls.
Check that the link setting on the Housekeeping PCB match the users
requirements. Table 5.1 details the functions of the different links and the normal
factory configuration.
Where the sample flow failure alarm option is fitted and a low sample flow condition is
detected then, depending on the link setting selected, the voltage output and the
isolated 4-20mA output will go to the fault indicating states as below.
Voltage output fault states (flow fail) - High on Fault = +1.2V. Low on Fault = -1.2V.
mA output fault states (flow fail) - High on Fault = >20mA. Low on Fault = 0mA.
The 1158 transducer has in-built failure monitoring circuits that cause the signal output
of the transducer to go to the -5V supply on failure. The failures detected within the
transducer are - no LED output - photocell open or short circuit - cell suspension broken
or jammed - wire broken.
Failure of the 1158 transducer will produce a ‘Low on Fault’ condition on both the
voltage and mA outputs. Transducer failure will also cause the front panel display to
show a reading of -1.
The following electronic circuit diagrams are included as part of this service
manual.
The performance tests detailed in this section are based on the factory test
specification for the Xendos 1800 and 1900 Series analysers. As standard, the
analysers are tested at 240V unless the sample pump options are fitted. If the
sample pump options are fitted then the analysers are tested at the specified
voltage and frequency for the sample pump.
WARNING
The procedure detailed within this section involves the use of pure
oxygen for span calibration, display calibration and analogue output
adjustment. These tests must not be performed upon an analyser
installed within a hazardous area. If necessary the tests should be
performed using clean dry air as an alternative to oxygen and the
specified output values listed in this section scaled accordingly.
The gas samples required to adjust and test the analyser are as follows:
When the optional automatic flow control device (AFCD ) is fitted then the
sample gases should be applied at pressures between 1 and 5 psig. When the
optional back pressure regulator is fitted then the sample gases should be
applied at pressures between 3 and 8 psig. When the optional sample pump is
fitted then the sample gases should be applied in the manner shown in Figure
A.1. When the optional sample bypass option is fitted then the sample flow rate
should be externally regulated to provide a sample flow to the analyser of 750
ml/min. If no sampling options are fitted then the sample flow rate should be
externally regulated to provide a sample flow to the analyser of 150 ml/min.
CAUTION
Connect the sample inlet pipe to a vacuum leak tester. Seal the sample
outlet pipe. The test is passed if the measured leak rate is less than 10-6
mbar litres/second.
Before powering up the analyser, set up the options on the Housekeeping PCB
as follows:
1. Set the default ranges of the analyser to be 0-25% (range 1) and 0-100%
(range 2) using links LK4 and LK3.
2. Set alarm 1 to “Low” and alarm 2 to “High” using links LK1 and LK2.
3. If the flow alarm option is fitted then select position “FLAL” on link LK5.
If no flow alarm is fitted then select position opposite to “FLAL” on link
LK5.
4. Set the analogue output to read high on flow failure by setting link LK6 to
its lower position.

This appendix covers the first product changes and enhancements to the
Xendos 1800, 1900 and 1902 product range implemented in November 1996.
The product enhancement covers 5 additions and changes to the original
product range.
2. The addition of a sample bypass option extending the sample flow rate
range for those analysers configured with metallic internal pipework.
4. The replacement of the 0-50% measuring range for the analogue outputs
with a 0-2.5% range.

Xendos 01902A1EUR
A new version of the Terminals PCB has been produced for use in the
Xendos 1800, 1802, 1900EUR and 1902EUR analysers. The new
Terminals PCB has part number 01800913. The new Terminals PCB
implements the analogue output current limit and includes the following
changes (see drawing number 01800/113).
A new version of the Housekeeping PCB has been produced for use in
the Xendos 1800, 1802, 1900EUR and 1902EUR analysers. The new
Housekeeping PCB has part number 01800911. The new Housekeeping
PCB implements the output gain range modifications and includes the
following changes (see drawing number 01800/111).
The new resistors change the ratios of the IC12 operational amplifier in
order to implement the following analogue output ranges: 0-2.5%, 0-5%,
0-10%, 0-25% and 0-100%.
The transducer assembly used in the existing Xendos 1902 and the new
Xendos 1802 and 1902EUR analysers has been modified to be
compatible with corrosive as well as solvent containing sample gases.
The changes are as follows:

The new option is similar to the existing stainless steel pipework option
but with the following changes:
A new option has been introduced to implement a sample bypass for use
with higher sample flow rates. The new option is available on the new
Xendos 1802 and 1902EUR analysers. Two versions of the bypass
option are provided for use with the stainless steel and hastelloy C
pipework options. The design of the bypass option is to use two
proprietary tee fittings with the 1156 transducer fitted across the branch
port of the tee. The sample bypass consists of a stainless steel or
Hastelloy C pipe 1/8" outside diameter and 120 mm long.

This appendix covers the enhancements to the Xendos 1800 and 1900 Series
implemented in May 2000.
The xendos 1800 and 1900 Series has been raised to revision B1. This includes
new features and options codings and improvements to the Terminals board, the
Display board and a new Transducer.
The Terminals board (01800913B) now has an improved current output circuit
more compatible with data-logging systems and shows improved temperature
stability. It is fully retro-fitable in all xendos 1800 and 1900 Series analysers.
The 3.5 digit Display board (01800902A) update was required to provide the
option of reversing the operating direction of the front panel Zero control for the
new 1158 Transducer. In addition a course span control is now provided on the
display board to increase the range of operation of the front panel Span control.
A new version of the optional 4.5 digit Display board (01800912A) is also
available with the same improvements as the 3.5 digit Display board. Both
boards are fully retro-fitable in all xendos 1800 and 1900 Series analysers.
The Transducer used in the xendos 1800 and 1900 Series analysers is now the
1158 paramagnetic oxygen transducer. A complete transducer assembly is
available enabling it to be used for spares requirements.
A new High-Flow cell is also available which removes the requirement for a
piped bypass in the high flow analyser option.
