Labels
The followinglabels are at specific locations on or in the analyzerto identify hazardous
areas. (Figure 1)
Figure 1: Radiation Labels
These labelsare located onthe enclosure coveringthe ICOS cell. The fiber laser is visible
only when the insulated enclosure is removed fromthe ICOS cell.
Operator Safety
When the case cover is closedand locked into position,theanalyzer runssafely, without
risk to the operator. Modifying the analyzerto operatewith the casecover open can injure
personnel.
Bypassing the analyzer interlock switch to open the case cover during
analyzer operations can cause serious bodily injury. Even though the
analyzer provides a second layer of protection, such as a laser cover to
prevent the user from the invisible laser beam or any secondary reflection
from the laser on a reflective surface, it is not recommended to modify the
analyzer to operate in an unsafe condition.
Electrical Hazards
The analyzer poses no electrical hazards. The analyzer components operate at ≤6.8 V DC.

USER MANUAL | ICOS | INSTRUCTIONS | UM/ICOS-EN REV. B.2

Laser Hazards
The analyzeris a Class 1 laser product that complies with:
21 CFR 1040.10 and 1040.11
EN 60825-1:2014
The laser is classified as a Class IIIb when exposed.
Only trained service personnel are authorized to open the housing or
service the laser.
Using this analyzer in a manner not specified by ABB-LGR may result in
damage to the analyzer and render it unsafe to operate.
Only authorized persons may open the analyzer cover or perform internal
maintenance. Contact ABB-LGR for maintenance instructions and
maintenance kits. Make sure the analyzer is unplugged before working
with the internal components. Failure to do so may result in damage to
the analyzer and electric shock.
Safety Provisions for a Chemical Spill
Follow these precautionswhen dealing with all chemicals:
Keep all chemical containers away from heat, sparks, and open flames.
Use only on grounded equipment and with non-sparking tools.
Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place,away from incompatible materials.
If a spill occurs:
Make sure all handling equipment is electrically grounded.
Mop or wipe up,andthen placeall chemical-soaked items in containers approved
by the US Department of Transportation (DOT) or the appropriate localregulatory
agency.

Connector Description
AC Power In Connects the analyzer to the power supply
AC Voltage Selection Toggles the input voltageto the analyzer’s power supply
between 115 VAC and 230 VAC, determined bythecountry where
the analyzer is used.
Setting an incorrect voltage may damage the analyzer. When
changing the supply voltage verify that both the:
Analyzer is powered off or not connected to power.
AC voltage selection on theanalyzer matches the AC
voltage being supplied from your power supply.
EXT. Pump Power Provides power to an external pump when operating the
analyzer.
If you require a different power source, please contact ABB-LGR.

Data Interface Connection Ports
This section describes the data interface connections as shownin Figure 5. These
connections vary from analyzer to analyzer depending onthe orderedconfiguration.
Analog ports– Providesa DC voltage proportional to the measured gas
concentration. If thisoutput is connected to an external device, it must be
terminated into a moderate to high impedance (>1kOhm).
USB ports – Used for transferring data to a USB memory device, or to connecta
USB keyboard andmouse.
Ethernet port – Connects the analyzer to a localarea network (LAN) andallows
access tothe data directory using an external computer.
Serial port (9 pin D-sub) – For real-time digitalmeasurement output.
Video port (15 pin D-sub) – Connects an external monitor to theanalyzer.
TO MIU port (25-pin data port) – For connecting to a Multiport Inlet Unit (optional).
DCS port (BNCmale port) – Usedto controltheoptional External Dynamic Dilution
System (EDDS).

Plumbing Diagram
The plumbing diagram measures theinternal flow of gas throughtheanalyzers.
Standard Plumbing
Figure 6 shows an exampleof the internal flow of gasin standard plumbing analyzers.
Configurations will vary depending on the analyzer type and may not includean external
pump.
For the GLA451-AAQC plumbing diagram, refer toFigure 7.
For standard operation, the pump draws gasthrough the
Sample Inlet port on the back
panel of the analyzer. The gas is filteredthrough a filter before enteringthe pressure
controller, which determines the analyzer flow rate. The gas then travels throughthe
optical cell andis exhausted throughthe Exhaust port. The acceptableinlet gas pressure
range is 1 to 5 psig.
