Safety Notes
WARNINGS, CAUTIONS, and NOTES contained in this manual emphasize critical instruc-
tions as follows:
An operating procedure which, if not strictly observed, may result in personal injury or envi-
ronmental contamination. Essential Health and Safety Requirements are also included in
– but are not limited to – Warnings.
An operating procedure which, if not strictly observed, may result in damage to the equipment.
Important information that should not be overlooked.
Electrical Safety
High voltages are present in the analyzer housings. Always shut down power source(s) before
performing maintenance or troubleshooting. Only a qualified electrician should make electrical
connections and ground checks.
Any use of the equipment in a manner not specified by the manufacturer may impair the safety
protection originally provided by the equipment.
Grounding
Instrument grounding is mandatory. Performance specifications and safety protection are void if
instrument is operated from an improperly grounded power source.
Verify ground continuity of all equipment before applying power.

Personnel and Equipment Safety Information
This section describes important safety information to avoid personal injury and damage to the
equipment while installing, operating, maintaining, or servicing the equipment. All safety regu-
lations, standards, and procedures at the analyzer location must be followed.
All personnel involved with the installation, start-up, operation, maintenance, service, or trou-
bleshooting of the analyzer must review and follow these Warnings and Cautions.
Warnings
Review and follow these Warnings to avoid personal injury or environmental contamination.
Always disconnect main AC power and/or external power sources (example, for relay contacts)
to the analyzer before removing any sample system assemblies and components from the ana-
lyzer, or before opening any covers on the analyzer.
If it is necessary to open the Upper/Lower Ex d Electronics Enclosures while the circuits are
live, test the area for explosive gases and proceed only when the area is safe. When the Enclo-
sures are open, take appropriate precautions to avoid electrical shock. Hazardous voltages are
present inside.
All electrical connections, adjustments, or servicing of the analyzer should be performed only
by properly trained and qualified personnel.
All electrical connections, materials, and methods (plus all safety policies and procedures) must
be made in compliance with local wiring regulations and electrical code for the hazardous area,
and be approved by the Owner Company.
Before working on the sample system, confirm that the system is purged with Zero gas and is
isolated (blocked in) from the process.
Because ultraviolet radiation can harm your eyes, avoid direct viewing of the light emanating
through the end window of the source lamp. If the source lamp must be viewed while ener-
gized, wear safety glasses that block ultraviolet radiation.
For Division 1/Zone 1 Installations, all cable entry glands (one power cable entry and two
signal cable entries) into the flameproof Disconnect Enclosure must be Ex d certified. Conduit
or cable seals that comply with the flameproof enclosure cable entry sealing requirements of the
local authority must be installed at the entries to the enclosure. In all cases, each unused cable
entry port must be plugged with a certified Ex d plug.

x | Model 933S UV Analyzer
If the analyzer uses the optional Measuring Cell heater, take precautions to avoid burning
yourself; the Measuring Cell and Heater Assembly are hot.
Cautions
Review and follow these Cautions to avoid damaging the equipment.
The electronic circuit boards and other static-sensitive components should be stored and trans-
ported in static-shielding carriers or packages.
For electrical-shock protection, the analyzer must be operated from a grounded power source
that has a securely connected protective-ground contact.
If it becomes necessary to handle any of the electronic circuit boards, do not subject the boards
to static discharge. The ideal solution is a static-safe work area. Since such areas typically are
not available at field installation sites, the use of a wrist strap connected directly to a ground
is recommended. If a wrist strap is not available, you should at the very least touch the metal
chassis (to ground yourself) before handling or touching the boards.
When handling the source lamps, it is very important not to touch the lamp windows because
residual oils from the fingers will absorb ultraviolet light. The window is the flat surface at the
end of the narrow glass tube. The lamp assembly is fragile and should be handled with care.
Do not exceed the maximum working pressure rating of the sample system under any circum-
stances:
• Systems with Filterblock Assembly: 13 790 KPAG (2000 PSIG).
• Systems without Filterblock Assembly: 20 700 KPAG (3000 PSIG).
If the analyzer is equipped with the Environmental Purge option, clean air or nitrogen can be
supplied to the inlet flame arrester at a pressure of 7–70 KPAG (1–10 PSIG).
