The operator is guided by a simple, intuitive, menu-driven display which minimizes the time required for operator training. Once power is applied, the 3000HM will light, purge, operate and calibrate itself with minimal user prompting. The instrument automatically monitors important internal parameters which effect the quality and safety of operation. Out of tolerance conditions trigger a fault alarm, preventing damage, failure or contamination. 3000HM hydrocarbon monitor features a modular design is very easily maintained.
Functional assemblies can be fault-isolated and removed very quickly for cleaning or replacement.
The hinged operator panel and machine-formed cowling provide easy access to four sides. Solid state pressure transducers provide the operator with precise data to monitor the fuel, combustion air and sample flows without interrupting the instrument's operation. Internal voltages, parameters and calibration factors are all available to the operator via the panel display. The cleanable sample filter and sample capillary are easily changed in about a minute, without powering-down the equipment. All operation and calibration controls and adjustments can be made without removing the 3000HM from its mounting via the hinged operator panel.
