1. OZONE MONITOR INTRODUCTION
The 2B Technologies Model 106-H Ozone Monitor is designed to enable accurate
measurements of ozone over a wide dynamic range extending from 0.01 percent by
weight in oxygen (wt% O2) to an upper limit of 20 wt% O2based on the well-
established technique of absorption of ultraviolet light at 254 nm. The Ozone Monitor
is lightweight (4.4 lb, 2.0 kg) and has low power consumption (~3.9 watt) relative to
conventional instruments and is well suited for applications such as:
•Monitoring of ozone generator output
•Monitoring of residual ozone after a cleaning or oxidation process
•Control of industrial ozone processes
The Model 106-H is a flow-through instrument with no air pump. The plumbing is
designed for high pressure (up to 50 psig) and partial vacuum.
1.1 Theory of Operation
Absorption of UV light has long been used for measurements of ozone with high
precision and accuracy. The ozone molecule has an absorption maximum at 254 nm,
coincident with the principal emission wavelength of a low-pressure mercury lamp.
Fortunately, few molecules found in ozone process streams absorb at this
wavelength.
Figure 1.1 is a schematic diagram of the Ozone Monitor. Ozone is measured based
on the attenuation of light passing through a 0.1 cm absorption cell fitted with sapphire
windows. A low-pressure mercury lamp is located on one side of the absorption cell,
and a sample photodiode is located on the opposite side of the absorption cell. The
photodiode has a built-in interference filter centered on 254 nm, the principal
wavelength of light emitted by the mercury lamp. A beamsplitter and reference
photodiode are used to monitor the lamp intensity without the sample in the beam
path. The intensity of light is measured from the reference photodiode (Io) and from
the sample photodiode (I).
Ozone concentration is calculated from the measurements of Ioand Iaccording to the
Beer-Lambert Law:

where lis the path length (0.1 cm) and  is the absorption cross section for ozone at
254 nm (1.15 x 10-17 cm2molecule-1 or 308 atm-1 cm-1), which is known with an
accuracy of approximately 1%. The 2B Technologies instrument uses the same
absorption cross section (extinction coefficient) as used in other commercial
instruments.

Model 106-H Ozone Monitor Manual Rev. D-2
2
When there is no ozone in the cell, a difference in light intensity at the reference and
sample photodiodes can be expected, and it will cause a zero offset in the readings.
This light intensity difference is inherent in the instrument due to the different
properties of the two photodiodes, drift in the angle of the beamsplitter, contamination
in the cell and thermal drift in any of the optical components. The zero drift has been
determined to be less than or equal to 2% of full scale per month, non-cumulative, and
can easily be corrected for by using the zero function described below. The zero drift
does not affect the slope calibration factor in any way, and the instrument does not
need to be recalibrated after performing the zeroing function.
The pressure and temperature within the absorption cell are measured so that the
ozone concentration can be expressed as a mixing ratio in percent by volume (vol%).
The fraction of the sample that is ozone can then be calculated and used to determine
the ozone concentration in percent by weight in either air (wt% air) or oxygen (wt%
O2), in g/m3, or in Ng/m3. The instrument displays and records the cell temperature
and pressure in addition to the ozone concentration. The cell pressure is displayed
and logged in units of mbar, torr, or psia and the cell temperature in units of either °C,
°F, or K.
1.2 Calibration and Zeroing Overview
In principle, the measurement of ozone by UV absorption requires only a zero
calibration to account for the different light intensities at the reference and sample
photodiodes. However, non-linearity of the photodiode response and electronics can
result in a small measurement error. Therefore, each instrument is compared with a

reference ozone monitor calibrated to the International Ozone Association (IOA)
buffered KI method. These results are used to calibrate the Ozone Monitor with
respect to a slope (gain). The correction for slope is recorded in the instrument Birth
Certificate. The slope parameter is entered into the microprocessor prior to shipment.
The user may change the slope parameter from the front panel if desired. It is
recommended that the instrument be recalibrated at least once every year and
preferably more frequently. The user may perform the calibration (see Section 5), or
return the instrument to 2B Technologies for calibration servicing.
The zero may drift due to temperature change or chemical contamination of the
absorption cell. As discussed below (Section 3.2.5, Section 3.10, Section 6), an
accurate zero correction can be measured from time to time using zero gas and the
auto-correct function of the instrument.

3. OPERATION
Please read all the following information before attempting to install the Ozone
Monitor. For assistance, please call 2B Technologies at [phone].
NOTE:
Save the shipping carton and packing materials that came with the
Ozone Monitor. If the Ozone Monitor must be returned to the factory,
pack it in the original carton. Any repairs as a result of damage
incurred during shipping will be charged.
3.1 Shipping Box Contents
Open the shipping box and verify that it contains all of the items on the shipping list. If
anything is missing or obviously damaged, contact 2B Technologies immediately.
3.2 Operation of the Ozone Monitor
3.2.1 Powering the Instrument
To operate the Ozone Monitor, connect it to an external power source and power the
instrument on using the power switch. The instrument requires a 12 V DC source
which can be supplied by: 1) the 100-240 V AC power adapter, 2) a cigarette lighter
adapter plugged into a 12 V DC source such as found in an automobile or many light
aircraft, or 3) a 12 V battery. The source can be in the range 11-28 V DC without any
detrimental effects on the measurement. When using a battery, be certain to attach
the positi ve (red) and negative (black) wires correctly. Batteries and battery chargers
are available from 2B Technologies. A circuit breaker and diode are installed on the
circuit board in case of an electrical short or incorrect battery attachment. If activated,
the breaker will reset itself after a few minutes.
Lead-acid batteries are available from numerous manufacturers in a wide range of
sizes and amp-hour ratings. The larger of these, such as those for automobiles or
boats, will supply power for up to several weeks. Battery packs in the correct voltage
range may be constructed from nickel-cadmium (rechargeable) or lithium (lightweight
but not rechargeable) batteries for operation for a few hours. Battery options available
through 2B Technologies may be found on our webpage: www.twobtech.com.
3.2.2 Initial Startup
Once turned on, the instrument will display the version number of the software
installed on the microprocessor. After a few seconds, the instrument will start
displaying readings for ozone. The first several readings (requiring about two
minutes) will be spurious, with large positive and negative swings due to the rapid
warmup of the lamp and electronics. Also, ozone readings may be inaccurate during
the first 20-30 minutes required for the lamp, photodiodes, and internal temperature of
the absorption cell to stabilize.

Model 106-H Ozone Monitor Manual Rev. D-2
6
3.2.3 Connections to the Instrument
Inlet tubing may be attached to the ¼ inch stainless steel Swagelok fitting on the back
of the instrument. For the high concentrations of ozone typically used with the Model
106-H Ozone Monitor, stainless steel tubing is recommended.
3.2.4 Operating Parameters
The Ozone Monitor has an internal pressure relief device that protects the instrument
from excessive pressure. The device vents through an ozone scrubber when the inlet
pressure exceeds 50 psi and is not meant to be used in normal operation. Although
the ozone scrubber is made with an ozone destroying catalyst that has very high
ozone capacity, it may not scrub 100% of the ozone if the flow exceeds several liters
per minute. Operators of the instrument should not rely on the pressure relief device
as a pressure regulating device or expose the instrument to pressures above 50 psi.
Although the instrument compensates for temperature drift, if strong temperature
fluctuations are expected, the instrument should be placed in a thermally insulated box.
3.2.5 Checking the Zero Offset
Check the zero measurement occasionally, or if the instrument has not been used
recently. The zero offset of the instrument can be measured by first purging the
instrument with zero gas at a minimum flow rate of 0.2 L/min for at least 2 minutes.
For an accurate measurement, the instrument must have been turned on long enough
for the internal temperature to stabilize. The observed offset can be corrected for by
running the auto-zeroing function, as described in Section 3.10 of this manual.

When 10s is selected, the unit is in the default operating mode. In this mode, the
average of five 2-s measurements is displayed and updated. When averaging for 1m,
5m, or 1h is selected, the first of the two displays discussed above in Section 3.5 will
alternate with a display of the average, such as
Avg O3= 3.53 wt
15:07 19/07/17

Model 106-H Ozone Monitor Manual Rev. D-2
10
for example, where the most recent average value of ozone computed is 3.53 wt% O2
(note, because of character limits, only “wt” is displayed), the time of the measurement
is 3:07 p.m. and the date is 19 July 2017.
Note that entering the menu will interrupt the averaging interval that is in progress,
and the averaging interval will start over when the menu is exited and measuring is
resumed.
Averaged data may be logged, thereby greatly extending the length of time that the
internal data logger can be used (see next section).
3.6.2 To Log Data
Data may be logged in the internal data logger. Up to 32,736 data lines containing log
number, ozone concentration, internal (cell) temperature, internal (cell) pressure,
reference photodiode voltage, sample photodiode voltage, date, and time may be
stored in internal memory. Measurement output of 2 s, and averaging options of 10 s,
1 min, 5 min and 1 hr may be selected from the menu (see below), thereby allowing
the instrument to operate and log data for 18 hours, 3.8 days, 22.7 days, 113 days
and 3.7 years, respectively, before filling the memory.
To begin logging data, select the Dat submenu from the Admin Menu using the Select
switch. The display will now show Dat Menu
Xmt Log End 
To start logging data, rotate the Select switch to move the cursor to Log and click to
select the logging mode. You will then receive the prompt:
Overwrite Data?
No Yes 
Warning: If you start logging, all data previously stored in the logger will be
irretrievably lost. If you have data in the logger that you want to keep, be sure to
download it (see Section 3.14 below) before starting logging.
Click on Yes if you are sure you want to start logging new data. This will return you to
the Dat submenu. Click on to return to the Admin Menu, click on again to reach
the Main Menu, and click on again to exit the Main Menu and start making
measurements. Note that “” always takes you up one level in the menu.
When data are being logged, the log number and number of new measurements
made for the next average (minus 1) are displayed in place of the data and time; e.g.,
Avg O3= 3.53 wt
Log= 193:4
where Avg O3 is the average ozone value most recently written to the logger, and the
current log number is 193. (Note that when the average is displayed, the units are
truncated. Refer to the instantaneous reading for the full units of wt% O2, wt% air,
g/m3, etc.) The “4” in 193:4 refers to the number of 2-s data points that have been

Model 106-H Ozone Monitor Manual Rev. D-2
11
measured so far for inclusion in the next average to be displayed and logged. If 1-min
averaging is used, this number will increment from 0 to 29; for 5-min averaging, the
number will increment from 0 to 149; and for 1-hr averaging, it will increment from 0 to
1799. This number is displayed so that the user will know how many more 2-s
measurements need to be made before a new average is displayed and logged.
If there is a power failure while the instrument is in the logging mode, logging will
resume after power is restored. A note of “Data Interruption” will be written to the logger
prior to writing the first new data line. The instrument can accommodate multiple data
interruptions due to power failures. For example, one can purposely switch the
instrument off, move to another location and restart logging simply by turning the
instrument back on. Data sets will be separated by the data interrupt message.
Note that entering the menu will interrupt the averaging interval that is in progress,
and the averaging interval will start over when the menu is exited and measuring is
resumed.
3.7 To Stop Logging Data
Hold in the Select switch to obtain the Main Menu. Go to the Admin Menu and then
the Dat submenu. Choose and click on the End function. This will end data logging.
You may now return to the Dat submenu to transmit the data to a computer by clicking
on Xmt (see Section 3.14 below). The stored data will reside in memory (even when
new measurements are being made) and can be transmitted using the Xmt function
as often as you like. However, all stored data are lost once logging is started again
using the Log function. Thus, you should always transmit your data to a computer
before restarting logging.
If you fail to End logging prior to transmitting the data using the Xmt function, the
instrument will automatically execute the End function for you prior to transmitting the
data.
3.8 To Set the Time and Date
From the Main Menu, select the Admin menu and the Cfg submenu. Next, select the
D/T submenu. The display will read, for example:
D/T: 14:32:21 
17/10/2016
meaning that it is 21 seconds after 2:32 p.m. on October 17, 2016 (military time and
European date). To change a number in the date and time, rotate the Select switch to
underline the numeral you want to change. A single click then causes a blinking
cursor to cover that numeral. The number can then be changed by rotating the Select
switch. Once the number is correct, click on the Select switch to turn off the blinking
cursor. You may now rotate the Select switch to choose another numeral to change.
Once the time and date is correct, clicking on will set the internal clock to that time
and return the display to the Cfg menu. As in setting a digital watch, the seconds
should be set in advance of the real time since the clock starts to run again only when

Model 106-H Ozone Monitor Manual Rev. D-2
12
the set time is entered, in this case by exiting all menus by clicking on , and
resuming measurements.
3.9 To Change the Ozone, Temperature, and Pressure Measurement Units
From the Main / Admin / Cfg submenu, choose the Unt submenu:
Unt Menu
T/P O3 
Choose O3 to change the ozone units:
O3 Units Menu
Ozone: vol% 
Select the units displayed (e.g., vol% above), depress the select switch to obtain a
blinking cursor and rotate the select switch to choose between units of percent by
weight in oxygen (Wt%O2), percent by weight in air (Wt%air), grams per normalized
cubic meter (g/Nm3, normalized to 1 atm and 0°C), grams per cubic meter (g/m3) or
percent by volume (Vol%). Press the select switch again to remove the blinking cursor,
and return to the Unt menu using the left arrow. Ozone concentrations will now be
calculated and reported in the chosen units.
Select T/P from the Unt submenu to change the temperature and pressure units:
T/P Units Menu
T:C P:mbar 
You may now select units of °C, °F, or K for temperature and mbar, psi, or torr for
pressure using the same procedure used to set the units for ozone concentration.
3.10 To Auto-Zero the Instrument
Check the zero measurement occasionally, or if the instrument has not been used
recently. The instrument has an auto-zeroing function to enable easy zeroing.
First, purge the instrument with zero gas at a minimum flow rate of 0.2 L/min for at
least 2 minutes. For an accurate measurement, the instrument must have been
turned on long enough for the internal temperature to stabilize (at least 20 minutes).
From the Main Menu, select and click on Zero to display:
Providing Zero
Air? Yes Cancel
Select Yes. You will then see the status message:
Zeroing…
When the zeroing function is complete, you will see the status message:
