Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft einen Infrarot-Gasanalysator zur konti nuierlichen Bestimmung der Konzentration eines mehratomigen nichtelementaren Gases gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1. The invention relates to an infrared gas analyzer for continuous Nuclear determination of the concentration of a multi-atomic non-elementary gas according to the preamble of claim 1.
Ein bekannter Gasanalysator (DE 35 06 372 A1) ist als Einstrahl photometer ausgebildet. Nachteilig ist hier, daß bei Änderungen der Umgebungstemperatur die Leistung der Strahlungsquelle nicht konstant ist, sie hängt von der Umgebungstemperatur und der Temperatur des Strahlers ab. Änderungen der Strahlungsleistung haben Änderungen des Ausgangssignals des Strahlungsempfängers zur Folge. Abhilfe kann nur, wie bei anderen Verfahren, mit einer Thermostatisierung durch Beheizung von Strahlungsquelle, Gasküvette und Strahlungsempfänger geschaffen werden. Dies ist jedoch bei Handmeßgeräten aus energetischen und Gewichtsgründen nur nachteilig realisierbar. A known gas analyzer (DE 35 06 372 A1) is a single beam trained photometer. The disadvantage here is that with changes the power of the radiation source does not depend on the ambient temperature is constant, it depends on the ambient temperature and the Temperature of the heater. Changes in radiant power have changes in the output signal of the radiation receiver result. The only remedy, as with other procedures, is with thermostatting by heating the radiation source, Gas cuvette and radiation receiver are created. This is however, in the case of handheld measuring devices for energy and weight reasons can only be realized disadvantageously.
In der erfindungsgemäß gelösten Aufgabe nach Anspruch 1 wird die Änderung der Strahlungsquellen leistung durch die Umgebungstemperatur und die Änderung des Ausgangssignals des Strahlungsempfängers durch die Umgebungs temperatur durch ein Signal, das den Zustand der Strahlungsquelle und des Strahlungsempfängers beschreibt mit dem Empfängersignal in einer Quotientenschaltung ausgewertet. Vorteilhaft ist hier bei auch, daß das Driften des Empfängersignals durch den Anheiz vorgang der Strahlungsquelle bei Inbetriebnahme durch das kon tinuierliche Korrigieren in der Quotientenschaltung unterdrückt wird. Bei Verwendung einer getakteten Strahlungsquelle und einem pyroelektrischem Empfänger nach Anspruch 2, 12, 13 bietet eine Vor heizung der Strahlungsquelle den Vorteil, daß die Strahlungs quelle mit einer höheren Frequenz getaktet werden kann, weil sich ein Strahlungsleistungsmaximum so in kürzerer Zeit erreichen läßt.In the object according to the invention, the change in the radiation sources performance by the ambient temperature and the change in Output signal of the radiation receiver through the environment temperature by a signal indicating the state of the radiation source and the radiation receiver describes with the receiver signal evaluated in a quotient circuit. It is advantageous here at also that the drifting of the receiver signal by the heating process of the radiation source during commissioning by the con Continuous correction in the quotient circuit suppressed becomes. When using a clocked radiation source and a pyroelectric receiver according to claim 2, 12, 13 offers a pre Heating the radiation source has the advantage that the radiation source can be clocked at a higher frequency because achieve a radiation power maximum in a shorter time leaves.
Die Erfindung wird nachstehend an Hand einer in der Zeichnung dar gestellten Ausführungsform erläutert:The invention is illustrated below with reference to a in the drawing embodiment explained:
Ein Modulator (2) oder ein mechanischer Zerhacker erzeugen im Zusammenwirken mit der Strahlungsquelle (1) eine Infrarotwechsel lichtstrahlung, die durch eine Gasküvette (6), welche von dem zu analysierendem Gas durchströmt wird, mit den optischen Fenstern (4), (5) und durch ein Interferenzfilter (7), dessen Durchlaßbe reich mit einer der spezifischen Absorptionsmaxima des Gases, dessen Konzentration gemessen werden soll, übereinstimmt, auf einen Empfanger (8), der ein von der Gaskonzentration abhängiges Signal liefert. An einem Widerstand (3), der mit der Strahlungs quelle (1) in Reihe geschaltet ist, wird ein Signal gewonnen, das der Leistung der Strahlungsquelle proportional ist. Das Signal des Empfängers (8) wird über einen Verstärker (9), einen Gleich richter (10) und einen Tiefpass (17) zusammen mit dem Signal vom Widerstand (3) über einen Verstärker (12) und eine Abtast-Halte schaltung (11) der Quotientenschaltung (13) zugeführt. Das Aus gangssignal der Quotientenschaltung (13) wird einem Spannungs teiler (14) zugeführt und dessen Abgriffssignal mit einem Bezugs signal (16) einem Adierer (15) zugeführt, an dessen Ausgang die Meßwertanzeige (18) liegt. Mit dem Spannungsteiler (14) läßt sich der Nullpunkt (Gaskonzentration Null) der Meßanordnung ein stellen.A modulator ( 2 ) or a mechanical chopper, in cooperation with the radiation source ( 1 ), generate infrared radiation, which is transmitted through a gas cell ( 6 ), through which the gas to be analyzed flows, with the optical windows ( 4 ), ( 5 ) and through an interference filter ( 7 ), the range of which corresponds to one of the specific absorption maxima of the gas, the concentration of which is to be measured, on a receiver ( 8 ) which supplies a signal which is dependent on the gas concentration. At a resistor ( 3 ) which is connected in series with the radiation source ( 1 ), a signal is obtained which is proportional to the power of the radiation source. The signal of the receiver ( 8 ) is via an amplifier ( 9 ), a rectifier ( 10 ) and a low pass ( 17 ) together with the signal from the resistor ( 3 ) via an amplifier ( 12 ) and a sample and hold circuit ( 11th ) supplied to the quotient circuit ( 13 ). The output signal from the quotient circuit ( 13 ) is fed to a voltage divider ( 14 ) and its tap signal with a reference signal ( 16 ) is fed to an adder ( 15 ), at the output of which the measured value display ( 18 ) is located. With the voltage divider ( 14 ), the zero point (zero gas concentration) of the measuring arrangement can be set.
