Balance selections are chosen in the system configuration procedure. Up to 100 samples can be stored in the weight stack. The next five samples and the last sample in the weight stack are displayed on the left side of the analyze menu screen. With the exception of out of sequence, samples are stored and processed on a first in/first out basis. The automatic and manual weight procedures can also be used with a separate external balance or an interfaced external balance. Refer to the System Configuration procedure, page 422, to set the balance option. It is the operators responsibility to arrange the samples to match the order of the weight stack and organize them so that they can be identified.
Internal Balance (AWT)Automatic Procedure 1. Place an empty pan on the balance and then press the F2 (Balance Tare) key. The monitor displays -Tare- and the weight should be 0.000 g when the display stabilizes. Place sample on balance pan. When the weight stabilizes, press the Enter key. The ID code and its corresponding weight are now stored in the stack. Remove the sample from the balance. If the same ID code is used for additional samples, they can be added to the weight stack without returning to the sample log-in screen by following steps 1 through 4. If additional samples with a different ID code will be added to the stack it is necessary to return to the sample log-in screen.

Crucibles
Note
There are 3 types of crucibles to be used with the RH-402 system: * 603-710 Short Quartz * 769-520 Short Graphite * 769-761 Tall Graphite
The quartz crucibles can be used with any procedure and are used to fuse titanium. If quartz crucibles are used, the sample material must be such that it will couple with the RF field for the heating effect as the quartz will not couple. If a bath is used, this will generally provide the coupling necessary for heating, but will also require outgassing as with the fusion method. Graphite crucibles provide in themselves the necessary coupling for outgassing. Outgassing must be accomplished as graphite tends to absorb moisture and atmosphere that must be removed prior to analysis. It is not recommended that graphite crucibles be used with the hot extraction method as this method does not provide for outgassing, only purging. Tall graphite crucibles are recommended for aluminum samples.
Note
The quartz crucibles are used in the same manner as the graphite crucibles. The quartz crucibles will be tilted slightly while in position. This is normal. Figure 5-1, page 515, represents the typical quartz crucible position.

The sample is loaded directly into the crucible prior to analysis; the instrument will not instruct the operator for auto or manual loading procedures. As the analysis starts, the system is purged (for the amount of time entered as a constant), the sample is heated, hydrogen gas is driven off, and the analysis will end automatically. The results appear on the display.
576
RH-402
Operation
Fusion AnalysisProcedure F
During fusion analysis, the sample actually fuses while the hydrogen being driven off is being measured. Graphite crucibles are recommended as outgassing is included in the procedure, but quartz crucibles may also be used.
Note
Quartz is not recommended with sample materials that fuse heavily with the quartz. A danger of splintering upon cooling exists.
If any bath material is to be used, it should be loaded directly into the crucible so that it may be heated during crucible outgassing. The sample itself should be placed into the loading head after weighing is complete. After the outgassing is complete, the crucible is raised to the loading head and the sample is dropped into it. The crucible is lowered and the analysis heating takes place. The analysis will end automatically. Applications of the fusion method include determination of hydrogen in copper. Typical procedure settings for determining hydrogen in copper are:
Constants High Power Outgas High Power Outgas Time Low Power Outgas Analysis Power Low Analysis Power High Ramp Time Low Power Outgas Time Outgas Cool Down Minimum Analysis Time 100% 60 seconds 80% 80% 0 seconds 100 seconds 2 seconds 150 seconds

Operation
RH-402
577
Combined AnalysisProcedure C
The combined analysis procedure provides a method by which two separate analyses can take place on the same sample. The crucible is outgassed first and then the sample is dropped into the crucible. The first sample heating takes place with the answer being calculated and displayed. The sample is heated again and a second answer is calculated and displayed. This procedure would be typically used for determination of hydrogen in aluminum. This procedure is representative of surface and bulk analyses. Either the first or second heating of the sample may be bypassed if desired, but outgassing of the graphite crucibles should be accomplished.
Note
Quartz crucibles are not recommended for use with aluminum as sample fusion with the quartz crucibles is possible causing crucible splintering upon cool down.
Note
To bypass surface analysis, enter 0s for surface analysis contents. To bypass bulk analysis, enter 0s for parameters and 100 for comparator level.

Very slowly and carefully, add 70% concentrated nitric acid (HNO3 ) to the pan. Add only enough acid to cover half of the catalyst heater tube. The copper will begin to react with the nitric acid to produce a reddish-brown poisonous gas (NO2 ). When the copper is dissolved, rinse with water and remove the remainder of the copper and/or cupric oxide with a rod. If the catalyst heater tube is still not clean, return it to a fresh acid bath. When the catalyst heater tube is clean, rinse it thoroughly with distilled water and allow to dry. Pack the catalyst heater tube with 22 grams of copper turnings.

Theory of Operation
General Information
The RH-402 analyzer and HF-402 induction furnace system is a microprocessor-controlled instrument that measures the hydrogen content of ferrous and nonferrous metals. With the aid of the built-in display and keyboard, the operator may program the unit. The unit features diagnostic programs for troubleshooting a variety of system components. The operator enters gas dosing calibration parameters. Prior to an analysis, the sample is weighed on the built-in balance and automatically entered. At this time the ID information can also be entered. Outgassing, analysis temperature and times as well as many other parameters can be programmed by the operator. During an analysis, graphite crucibles are outgassed to drive off any trapped hydrogen that may be present. At a programmed interval, the sample is automatically added to the crucible and another heating cycle begins. As the sample is heated, the hydrogen (as H2 ) is released into the nitrogen carrier gas stream and carried through the measure flow portion of the system. The measure flow passes through the Schutze reagent, which converts carbon monoxide (CO) to CO2 . The Lecosorb then removes the CO2 and moisture is removed by the anhydrone. The sample gas will then flow to the thermal conductivity cell (TC cell), page 75, where the hydrogen content is measured. The results are printed automatically as well as displayed on the monitor. Past results may be recalculated based on new factors of calibration.

Theory of Operation
The wheatstone bridge is balanced with a specified bridge current while both filaments are essentially in identical environments. The bridge current is based on the thermoelectrical characteristics of the filaments and must be maintained within the limits specified. The bridge current causes self-heating of the filaments. The temperature of the filaments is always much higher than the ambient oven temperature in which the cell is located. The oven temperature is maintained at 45o C 0.2o C, which virtually eliminates any effects of normal room temperature variations. As long as both filaments remain in the same environment under which the bridge was balanced, the bridge output will remain at its minimum reading. Any disturbance of this environment will result in a change in bridge output.

Once the bridge is balanced and stabilized under proper conditions, the only variations in bridge output will be due to variations in the type and quantity of gas present at the measure filaments. The bridge is balanced with nitrogen flowing in the measure chamber and reference chamber. The introduction of hydrogen will cause the temperature of the measure filament to increase since hydrogen has a higher thermal conductivity than nitrogen. In this instance the bridge will become unbalanced and an output will be available to the preamp which will result in a positive reading. The amount of hydrogen will determine the magnitude of the readings. The sensitivity of the system is governed by bridge current and the difference in thermal conductivity between the analyze gas, hydrogen, and the carrier gas, nitrogen. The computer reads the cell output 18 times/second. The A/D converter changes the output into a binary number that is stored in the RAM memory. Noise suppression is applied to the stored data and then integration is performed. Next, adjustments are made for calibration (slope), weight compensation, and blank, if a blank was used. When these calculations are complete the results are displayed as ppm hydrogen.

Theory of Operation
Comparator Level
Note
One comparator level is associated with each analysis method. Selecting a different method also selects a new comparator level.
An analysis that lasts excessively long causes unnecessarily long delays, while an analysis that isnt long enough can cause loss of significant analyte data collection. Since not all samples combust in the same manner, analyses should not be performed based on time alone. The length of each analysis is determined on an individual basis by the minimum analysis time and the comparator level. Analysis ends when the minimum time limit is reached and the analyte rate drops below the comparator level after passing its peak. This comparator level is a preset constant (k) plus a percent of the peak:
During an analysis, the output of the detector is collected in the form of digital data and summed to arrive at the analysis result. If this data were plotted, it would reflect the curve of the detector output.
Theory of Operation
RH-402

Shown below are two examples of the same detector output curve (buffer plot). The first example shows the amount of detector output collected during an analysis with a comparator level setting at 6% while the second example illustrates at 25%.
DETECTOR OUTPUT
START OF ANALYSIS
The following conclusions can be drawn from the examples: 1. 2. 3. A high comparator level shortens analysis time. A low comparator level includes more sample gas, and therefore more hydrogen, into result calculations. A comparator level that is too low, however, results in the inclusion of very low concentrations that dont significantly effect the result (noise), but lengthen the analysis.
A comparator level of 1.0% usually provides optimum performance by allowing the collection of all significant output within a reasonable time.
78
RH-402
Theory of Operation
Extremely low output peaks may need a larger comparator level to exclude insignificant output levels produced toward the end of analysis and cut down on drift. The minimum time should be extended to match what would be considered a reasonable time length for the analysis of such samples. The combination of a high comparator level and an extended minimum analysis time insures that all significant output is collected and analysis time lengths are consistent without being extensive. Whenever the comparator level changes, check the system calibration since interaction can occur.

Barometric Pressure
A pressure transducer that is attached to a flow control valve senses barometric pressure which directly affects gas volume. This pressure transducer operates the control valve to maintain a consistent flow through the detection systems. Therefore, it is important to input correct barometric pressure for proper regulation. Pressure is often reported in inches of mercury (Hg) which must be converted to millimeters (mm) of mercury. To convert from inches of Hg to mm of Hg, multiply the barometric pressure by 25.4. Pressure varies inversely with altitude and, if pressure readings are measured and reported from an altitude other than operation, adjustments should be made accordingly. The table illustrates that as altitude increases, pressure decreases.
Altitude (feet) 0 250 500 750 1,000 2,000 3,000 4,000 5,000 6,000 7,000 8,000 9,000 10,000 Pressure (mm Hg) 760 753 746 740 733 707 681 656 632 609 586 564 543 523
Adjust reported level to reflect the operation level with this formula:
Operation Pressure (from table) 760 Reported Barometric Pressure at 0 feet Adjusted Pressure at Operation
710
RH-402
Theory of Operation
Example: Barometric pressure is reported at 750 mm Hg at sea level (0 feet) but operation altitude is 1000 feet. Adjust the reported sea level pressure to operation level pressure by using the formula:
733 mm Hg 760 mm Hg
750 mm Hg
723 mm Hg
In this example, the barometric pressure to be entered into the instrument is 723 mm Hg.

From the diagnostic menu, press F1 for system check. Press F2 for manual I/O test and then F1 for observe. Observe the address 133. Look at the far right digit in the line Value = XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX Binary (X's representing logic 1 or 0). Lift up the loader assembly cover, (figure 10-1, page 10-7) and determine which switch is the block closed switch by tracing the wiring from the cylinder to connector J154. Loosen the clamping screw on the block closed switch. While holding the switch firmly against the cylinder, slide the switch as far as possible to the left and then slowly to the right until the right-most digit on the screen changes from a 0 to a 1. Note this position. Continue sliding the switch to the right until the digit changes back to a 0. Mark this position. If the digit does not change to a 0, use the right-most position of the switch for marking purposes. Measure the distance between the point where the digit changed from 0 to 1 and the point where the digit changed back to 0 (or the physical end of movement) and divide by three. Move the switch this distance to the right of the point where the digit changed from 0 to 1 (the left position). Tighten the clamping screw on the switch. Check for proper operation of the switch by opening and closing the block using the sequence test procedure (from the diagnostic menu, press F1 for system check and then F4 for sequence test). Return to the manual I/O test procedure and observe address 133 again. The rightmost digit should be a 1. If it is not, readjustment is necessary.

Gas Flows
Note
Use the Gas Flow Diagrams, Sequence Diagrams, (figures 10-2 through 10-8 on pages 10-12 through 10-18) and Valve States, page 10-12, in conjunction with the following descriptions.
Measure Flow During an analysis, purified gas is split into two paths. One path flows through the reference side of the thermal conductivity cell and is exhausted out the back of the unit. This flow is factory set at 50 ml/min but may be adjusted. The second path serves as the measure flow and is set for 900 to 950 ml/min as read on the furnace rotameter. Measure flow is filtered through a 6 inch reagent tube containing lecosorb and anhydrone reagents to remove carbon dioxide and water impurities. Excess flow entering the furnace is automatically exhausted through a particle filter and exits through SV8 (furnace exhaust solenoid). Flow is drawn through the furnace; picking up hydrogen gas as it is given off by the heated sample. Particulate matter is again filtered from the flow which now measures 260 to 300 ml/min as read from the furnace rotameter. A second 6 inch reagent tube containing Schutze reagent, lecosorb, and anhydrone removes additional impurities that form during the heating of the sample. (Schutze reagent converts carbon monoxide to carbon dioxide, which in turn, is removed with lecosorb). Gases are pumped through a 15micron filter and the adjustable flow controller on the measure side of the TC cell. After the thermal conductivity of the gases are measured, flow is exhausted on the back of the unit.

Linearization
Notes
Only one break point can be linearized at a time. Compare the peak values received from the standard to the break values listed in the table. The standard that is used should exhibit a similar peak offset. Sample weights can be adjusted to bring the peak offset closer. The auto linearization is based on the last three analyses of one selected standard. They must be the last three analyses performed and must have the proper concentration for the point being linearized.
