SECTION 1: PRODUCT INFORMATION
1.1 Introduction
We appreciate your business and your choice of Welker® products. The installation, operation, and maintenance liability for this
equipment becomes that of the purchaser at the time of receipt. Reading the applicable Installation, Operation, and Maintenance
(IOM) Manuals prior to installation and operation of this equipment is required for a full understanding of its application and
performance prior to use.*
If you have any questions, please call Welker at 1-281-491-2331.
*The following procedures have been written for use with standard Welker® OdorEyes® parts and equipment. Assemblies that have been modified may have additional
requirements and specifications that are not listed in this manual.
1.2 Product Description
The Welker® OdorEyes® ECOsystem™ Pulse Bypass System is designed to infuse the customer pipeline proportional to flow with
natural gas that has been supersaturated with vaporized odorant. This skid-mounted automatic bypass system has three (3)
primary components: the touch screen controller, the valve section, and the odorant supply tank. Each primary component plays
an integral role in the operation of the ECOsystem™ and can be customized to better suit each application.
The touch screen controller serves as the system’s brain. It continuously receives feedback from the customer’s gas flow meter
and the flow switch in the valve section, allowing the system to respond to changing flow conditions. As pipeline conditions
change, the controller increases or decreases the injection rate so that the ECOsystem™ continues infusing proportional to flow.
On-site and remote troubleshooting and monitoring are made easier by time- and date-stamped audit data detailing system
performance, alarm history, and odorant tank level. An optional solar panel generates renewable energy to power the system
when an electrical source is unavailable.
The valve section contains one (1), two (2), or three (3) solenoids, which control the flow of gas through the odorant supply tank
and into the pipeline. Having two (2) or three (3) solenoids allows the ECOsystem™ to better respond to and accommodate
varying flow rates and limits interruption to operation in the event of solenoid maintenance. To prolong the operational life of the
regulator and solenoid(s), the Welker® F-5 Filter/Dryer conditions the natural gas supply. The flow switch communicates the
solenoid operation to the controller to ensure proper odorization. For pulse bypass systems used in cold climates, a heater with
thermostat can be added to replenish heat lost during regulation.
Each odorant supply tank is equipped with a tank fill inlet, vent port, blanket pressure inlet, level gauge, and outlet to the pipeline.
The temperature transmitter communicates odorant temperature to the controller so the system can compensate for
temperature changes within the odorant tank. For added automation, an electronic level transmitter can be installed to
communicate tank level to the controller. Regardless of volume or orientation, the odorant supply tank comes with 110%
containment that is sloped to the drain for easy draining.
Welker may custom design the ECOsystem™ Pulse Bypass System to suit the particular application and specifications of each customer.
1.3 Safety Warning
Wherever hazardous gases or vapor-producing liquids are used, transported, or stored, the potential for an accidental leak exists.
Continuous monitoring of these hazards is essential to ensure personnel safety.

SECTION 2: INSTALLATION & OPERATION
2.1 Before You Begin
After unpacking the unit, check the equipment for compliance and any damage that may have occurred during shipment.
Immediately contact a Welker® representative if you received damaged equipment.
When sealing fittings with PTFE tape, refer to the proper sealing instructions for the brand used.
The ECOsystem™ will ship skid-mounted and “hard-tube” connected with manufacturer-supplied fittings and hardware. However,
the customer will need to supply some tubing and fittings in order to complete the installation of the system.
The ECOsystem™ must be installed in a section of the natural gas pipeline with a regulated pressure drop, such as a regulator station
or gate station.
2.2 Installation
System Skid
1.
2.
3.
Mount the skid to a flat, level surface, such as a concrete slab.
Connect a grounding wire to each grounding lug on the skid to safely ground the system.
Connect the skid drain port(s) to an appropriate draining location.
System Connections
4.
Using appropriately sized customer-supplied tubing, connect from the outlet of the pipeline upstream of the regulated
pressure drop to the inlet of the Welker® F-5 Filter/Dryer (Figure 10).
Tubing must have a minimum diameter of ³∕8".
5.
Connect from odorized gas outlet valve K2 to an unused valve on the natural gas pipeline downstream of the regulated
pressure drop (Figure 1 or Figure 2).
Welker recommends using stainless steel tubing for all natural gas process lines, as plastic tubing can absorb odorant from the gas.
6.
7.
16
Ensure that all valves on the system are closed.
Ensure that all fittings, connections, and bolts are tightened.

Can only be active if Analog mode is selected.
The controller will go into the selected fail mode when this alarm is active.
NOTE: If this alarm is active, verify that a 4–20 mA signal is being received from the flow meter.
Can only be active if Pulse mode is selected.
The controller will go into the selected fail mode when this alarm is active.
NOTE: If this alarm is active, the pulse input cutoff time has expired. Verify that a pulse input is being
received from the flow meter. If this alarm is active when the controller is receiving pulse input from the
flow meter, Welker recommends increasing the pulse input cutoff time to prevent the alarm from
becoming active prematurely.
Can only be active if Constant Rate Mode is specified as the desired fail mode.
The controller will enter this gas flow fail mode when there is a gas flow signal loss.
Can only be active if Shutdown Mode is specified as the desired fail mode.
The controller will enter this gas flow fail mode when there is a gas flow signal loss.
Can only be active if Fixed Mode is enabled and the Fixed Alarm Rate is set.
NOTE: If this alarm is active, the Fixed Alarm Rate will be the assumed gas flow in the system and will
override any other input parameters. The Fixed Rate Alarm will not clear until Fixed Mode is disabled.
Can only be active if Transmitter is set as the RTD setup method.
NOTE: If this alarm is active, verify that a 4–20 mA signal is being received from the temperature
transmitter. If this alarm is active, the system will use the manually entered temperature; therefore,
Welker recommends regularly updating the manual temperature value.
Can only be active if an electronic level transmitter is used to track the odorant tank level and the
controller loses the 4–20 mA signal from the transmitter.
NOTE: If this alarm is active, the controller will automatically switch to the odorant flow method to track
the odorant tank level. The controller will use the value of odorant in the tank and subtract the
appropriate volume each time the solenoid opens.
Active if the odorant tank level has dropped below the specified value.
NOTE: This alarm will clear once the tank is filled with odorant or the alarm set point is lowered.
Active if the flow switch signals the controller indicating gas is passing through it even though the
solenoid(s) should not be open.
NOTE: If this alarm is active, it could be an indication that a solenoid is stuck open and that the system is
over-odorizing or that the flow switch is stuck open.
Active if the controller signals the solenoid to open but does not receive a signal from the flow switch
confirming the solenoid has opened.
NOTE: If this alarm is active, it could be an indication that the solenoid has failed closed or that the
pressure differential across the system is not great enough to odorize.

Figure 32: Gas Flow Signal – Input Signal Setup
If the gas flow signal will be analog, the analog signal must be 4–20 mA powered by the user.
If the gas flow signal will be a pulse, the pulse will be a digital pulse powered by the controller.
If the pulse input method is selected, the Pulse Input Cutoff must also be set (Figure 33).

Figure 33: Gas Flow Signal – Fail Mode Setup
Setting the Fail Mode to Shutdown will halt odorization until the alarm is cleared.
Setting the Fail Mode to Constant Rate will allow odorization to continue at the specified rate.
If the gas flow value does not change during the Pulse Input Cutoff time, the system will alarm for loss of flow and will enter the
specified Fail Mode. The alarm will clear on the next pulse input or change in Modbus gas flow, and the system will resume normal
operation.

SECTION 4: MAINTENANCE
4.1 Before You Begin
1.
2.
Refer to Appendix B, Maintenance Schedule, for the itemized Welker-recommended maintenance schedule for the
ECOsystem™.
Prior to maintenance or disassembly of the unit, it is advisable to have a repair kit available for repairs of the system in
case of unexpected wear or faulty seals.
New seals supplied in spare parts kits should be lightly lubricated before being installed to ease the installation of the seals and
reduce the risk of damage when positioning them on parts. Wipe excess lubricant from the seals, as it may adversely affect analytical
instrument results.
For sample-exposed seals, Welker recommends non-hydrocarbon-based lubricants, such as Krytox®.
For non-sample-exposed seals, Welker recommends either non-hydrocarbon-based lubricants or silicone-based lubricants, such as
Molykote® 111.
After the seals are installed, the outer diameter of shafts and inner diameter of cylinders may be lubricated to allow smooth
transition of parts.
3.
All maintenance and cleaning of the unit should be performed on a smooth, clean surface.
4.2 Maintenance
1.
2.
During operation, monitor the system for leaks. If leaks are present, halt operation and repair as necessary.
Occasionally, a system component may need to be repaired or replaced for manufacturer recommended maintenance.
To perform maintenance on components:
a. Turn OFF all electrical power to the system.
b. Depressurize the system and close all valves.
Prior to closing odorized gas outlet valves K1 and K2 and/or the pipeline isolation valve, the ECOsystem™ must be powered down.
This is to prevent the odorant supply tank from building pressure.
c.
d.
e.
