Labels
The following labels are at specific locations on or in the analyzer to identify
hazardous areas. (Figure 1)
Figure 1: Radiation Labels
These labels are located on the enclosure covering the ICOS cell. The fiber laser is
visible only when theinsulated enclosure is removed from the ICOS cell.
Operator Safety
When the case cover is closedand locked into position, the analyzerruns safely, without
risk to the operator. Modifying theanalyzer to operate with the casecover opencan 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. Theanalyzer components operateat ≤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 precautions when dealing with all chemicals:
Keep allchemicalcontainers away from heat, sparks, and open flames.
Use onlyon groundedequipment and with non-sparkingtools.
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 place all chemical-soaked itemsin containers approved
by the US Department of Transportation (DOT) or the appropriate local regulatory
agency.

Power Connections
The power connector is on the left side panel of theanalyzer. (Figure 4)
The analyzercan be powered two ways:
Using theAC/DC power supply to the DC power inlet
Using the battery hook-up kit (Optional)
The battery voltage must be in the range of
11-30 volts DC . It has a continuous discharge
rate to power 80 watts (or higher).
Figure 4 shows the power entry connector and the power switch.
Figure 4: Power Connections and AC Voltage Selection Switch
The analyzeris equipped witha three-prong power plug. The third prong of
the facility electrical outlets must be grounded. Failureto groundthe third
prong mayresult in electrical damageto the analyzer and electrical shock to
the operator.
Emergency Shutdown Procedure
If the analyzer malfunctions and requires emergency shutdown:
1. Turn off theanalyzer using the left side panel on/off switch. (Figure 2)
2. Unplug the power cord from the analyzer. (Figure 4)

Data Interface Connection Ports
This section describesthe data interface connections as shownin Figure 5. These
connections vary from analyzer to analyzer depending onthe ordered configuration.
USB ports – Usedfor transferring data to a USB memory device, orto connecta
USB keyboard andmouse.
Ethernet port – Connects the analyzer to a localarea network (LAN)and allows
accessto the data directory using an external computer.
Serial port (9 pin D-sub) – For real-time digital measurement output.
Video port (15 pin D-sub) – Connectsan external monitor to theanalyzer.
Analog out port – Provides a DC voltage proportional to the measured gas
concentration. If this output is connectedto an external device, it must be
terminated into a moderate to high impedance (>1kOhm).
MIU port (25-pin data port) –For connecting to a Multiport Inlet Unit (optional).

Gas Inlet/Outlet Connections
The gas inletandoutlet portsare located on the left side panel of the analyzer. (Figure 6)
Gas to be measured is connected to the ¼”push-connect
INLET port.
An external In-Line filter is provided, and can be attached to the
INLET port.
During normaloperation, the pump draws the sample through theanalyzer inlet, and
exhausts the samplethrough the waste port.
The acceptable inlet gas pressure range is 0 to 10 psig.
The ¼” push-connect
WASTE port may be:
Routed to the facility ventilation system, or
Remain open, expelling non-hazardous gas into the room air.
