Safety Information and Warnings These safety instructions and guidelines must be followed. The Model 6020 is designed to be connected to hazardous electric voltages (240V). The power supply must be protected by a 1 amp fuse. The Model 6020 must be earthed. Check to establish that all wiring and connections are not damaged. If damage is observed to any electrical wiring or damage to the apparatus they must not be connected to the power supply but returned to the supplier for rectiﬁcation. Before powering up the unit, check that the connecting plugs at the back of the unit have been wired correctly. Observe the wiring diagrams in section 6.2, Figure 1. Do not connect the Model 6020 to the power supply until it is in a permanent position. Risk of electric shock - Do not open any part of the Model 6020 whilst connected to the power supply. Remove the power supply and isolate before any maintenance is carried out. The power supply terminals and associated internal circuitry are isolated from all other parts of the equipment in accordance with EN61010-1 for connection to a category II supply (pollution degree2). Any terminals or wiring connected to the input or output, which are accessible in normal operation, must only be connected to signals complying with the requirements for Safety Extra Low Voltage (SELV) circuits. Hazardous voltages may be present on instrument terminals. The equipment must be installed by suitably qualiﬁed personnel and the instrument must be mounted in a position that provides protection behind the panel to at least IP20. Note: The instrument contains no user serviceable parts. Ignoring this safety information can result in severe personal injury and/or damage to the unit. The product speciﬁcations must not be exceeded at anytime as this may cause damage to the apparatus or cause risk of damage or ﬁre. Ensure that the Model 6020 does not come into direct contact with water or any other liquids. Cleaning Disconnect the power supply ﬁrst. To maintain the instrument, never use harsh abrasive cleaners or solvents. Wipe the instrument only with a soft cloth slightly dampened with warm soapy water. Maintenance: Risk of damage to the Sensor – Always ensure that the Model 6020 is “switched oﬀ” before removing or replacing a Sensor. By not doing so can result in short circuit damage to the Sensor. 1931 - Iss 2 - 03/14 3 Model 6020 3. User Interface and Controls Consists of a membrane keyboard with four user input keys and also four visual indication elements or windows: the primary ﬁve character LED, a single character secondary LED for units indication, two alarm LEDs and the access cover to the AutoCal potentiometer.

Quick Start Guide Note: Your instrument has been calibrated by Alpha Moisture Systems to your speciﬁcation. To get started quickly there is no need to go through all the menus on the Model 6020 at this stage. Follow these step by step instructions below for a fast set up and quick start to measuring. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 8. Unpack the Control Unit and Sensor only when they are ready to install. Read the safety instructions in section 2. Make a location for the Model 6020 - For dimensions see section 6.1. Make ready and seal all pipework for sampling. Unpack and wire up the Model 6020 display unit, see section 6.2. DO NOT power up at this stage. Unpack and very carefully insert the sensor into the sensor holder and connect to the Model 6020 display unit. Purge the gas to be sampled through the pipework and sensor holder see sections 7.1 and 7.2 for full details. Re-check all connections and wiring - NOW power up the Model 6020. . The screen will now look like this for example: -56.3 C 9. If the display is still changing, allow this to settle before taking ﬁnal reading. Note: Time to settle can vary between a few minutes and several hours dependant on the condition of the sample tubing on start up. Time can be aﬀected by for example, temperature, pressure, sample moisture content and other factors. Take a ﬁnal reading when the display is static. 10. If alarms are to be set at this stage see section 12.3 or 13.4. 11. To set up passwords see section 13.5. 1931 - Iss 2 - 03/14 5 Model 6020 5 Outline Speciﬁcation 5.1 Limits Moisture Range and Units limits Upper Lower C °C dewpoint 20.0 -130.0 - °F dewpoint 68.0 -202.0  ppm(v) 23100 0.001 g g/m3 17 0.001 L lb/MMSCF 1000 0.001  ppm(w) for air 23100 0.001 Temperature Range: Limited to Sensor range Electronics Sensor -10°C to +60°C -10°C to +50°C 5.2 Enclosure DIN Style.

The maximum panel thickness is 8mm. If an eﬀective IP65 weatherproof seal is required, the minimum recommended panel thickness is 2.5 mm. Pass the instrument case through the cut-out in the donor panel and attach the two retaining screws to the studs on either side of the case making use of the supplied gasket. Tighten the retaining screws onto the back of the donor panel until the instrument is clamped securely in position. The screws must be tightened suﬃciently to aﬀect a seal between the front of the donor panel and the back of the instrument bezel, but never over tightened. 6.2 Electrical installation Viewed from the rear and on the left is the moisture sensor input connector which is a panel mounted BNC. Just below it is a cable compensation adjustment potentiometer labelled ZERO. The ZERO adjustment is used where long cable lengths are ﬁtted to the instrument and, only used at the commissioning stage of the installation. Normally, when the cable is attached and laid in the operating position, but the sensor disconnected, the instrument display should read the lowest value of the selected range. If it does not, the ZERO can be adjusted to compensate for any raised value induced by the cable. Care should be taken to ensure accurate adjustment, or the accuracy of the system may be impaired. Only very small adjustments should be necessary and the procedure is as follows: Insert the small screwdriver to engage with the ZERO potentiometer and, slowly, adjust the potentiometer until the display reads the lowest value of the selected range. It is important to note that the display value will not indicate below the lowest value therefore care must be taken to ensure that adjustment drops as soon as the lowest value is reached.

Important Notes for both AC and DC powered units. • The power supply to the instrument must be protected by a 1A fuse • A local isolation switch is advisable for ease of isolation during maintenance to reduce the possibility of electric shock or damage to the instrument. • The power supply ground GND terminal must be wired to a suitable permanent ground point. • The supplied ferrite bead must be installed on the power supply cable approximately 50 mm from the connector using the supplied tool on the rear of the instrument. • The power supply wires are retained by screws and care should be taken to ensure that the exposed section of the wire is fully inserted and that no loose strands are exposed. • Cables should to be properly supported and segregated. 8 1931 - Iss 2 - 03/14 Model 6020 7 Installing the air/gas sampling system The piping installation schematic diagram (see section 7.1) shows all components that could be used in a dry gas measurement application. Not all the items shown will be required for every installation. Care should be taken to ensure that the sample presented to the measuring sensor is not contaminated with any component that will damage, contaminate or aﬀect the sensor in a way that will impair the system accuracy. It is strongly recommended that the sample should not contain particulate matter, oil or other heavy hydrocarbon condensate. If these components contaminate the sample system and/or the measuring sensor, the system response time will be lengthened, although the sensor calibration will not be eﬀected. The sample must not contain ammonia, chlorine, ozone or any wet acid vapours or liquids as these will permanently damage the sensor and impair calibration accuracy. The ﬂow rate, although not critical to the sensor measurement, should be low enough to avoid abrasion to the sensor surface without being so low as to extend the system response time to an unacceptable level. In general, a ﬂow rate of between 2 and 3 litres/min at NTP will give the right balance. The sensor is a variable capacitor, which is directly aﬀected by changes in partial pressure of water vapour. These changes that are proportional to the dew/frost point temperature are displayed on the instrument indicator. The measuring sensor can be installed directly into the process line, but this does create problems with access for maintenance and calibration. It is for these reasons that we recommend that the sensor be installed in a bypass, fast loop or total loss sample system where the sensor is accessible without interrupting the main process ﬂow line. 1931 - Iss 2 - 03/14 9 Model 6020 7.1 Piping installation schematic 4A 5 7 P 2 6 10 11 3 1 Main Process Line 8 4B 9 Notes a. The sample point should be on the upper surface of the horizontal pipe, or from a vertical section of pipe, wherever possible. b. The sample tube should run upwards from the sample point. If this is not possible then an inspection port or drain tap should be installed at the lowest point in the system. 7.2 Piping schematic component index 1) Sample Isolation Valve – This is a recommended item as it allows access to the sample system without interrupting the main process line. 2) Sample Tube – This should be stainless steel for dry air or gas applications but copper or carbon steel can be used where wetter gases are to be measured. If any section of the sample tube must be ﬂexible then PTFE should be used. In most cases, 3mm OD (1/8”) is suﬃcient as it provides good system response time within minimum ﬂow. 6mm OD (1/4”) tube can be used where pressure drops across the 3mm tube are too high. 3) Filter Unit – A ﬁlter unit is recommended when the samples are likely to contain particulate matter. If the air/gas sample contains heavy hydrocarbon condensate, the ﬁlter must be of the coalescing type with a drain. The ﬁlter unit should be positioned as close to the sample point as practical. 10 1931 - Iss 2 - 03/14 Model 6020 4) Pressure Reduction Valve or Pressure Regulator – If the sample is to be measured at atmospheric pressure then the valve 4A should be ﬁtted and 4B omitted from the system. If the sample is to be measured at full line pressure and the exhaust vented to atmosphere, then valve 4B should be ﬁtted and 4A omitted from the system. If measurements are to be taken at full line pressure and the sample is to be returned to a part of the main line or a vent, which is at a pressure higher than atmospheric, and the input to that line needs a controlled pressure, then both 4A and 4B will be required. 5) Sample Pressure Gauge – This is not a critical part of the moisture measurement but may be required if Dew/Frost point measurements are to be made at higher than atmospheric pressure. 6) Measuring Sensor. 7) Sensor Holder. 8) Desiccant Chamber – This item is required when the sampling is to be intermittent. When installed, it prevents the ingress of wet air to the sample system while the sample is not ﬂowing, improving the response time. 9) Flow Control Valve – This can be a separate item or combined with the ﬂow indicator. 10)Flow Indicator – The recommended sample ﬂow is 2 to 3 litres/min at NTP. 11)Sample Exhaust – The exhaust can be vented to atmosphere or returned to the process line as discussed above. 1931 - Iss 2 - 03/14 11 Model 6020 8 Installing and commissioning the sensor It is advisable to carry out an initial purge routine of the sample loop before installing the sensor. This is to remove the possibility of sensor damage on start-up. Note: Before any AutoCal procedures are carried out after installation you must ﬁrst set the Zero on the Cable Potentiometer sited on the rear of the Model 6020 - see section 6.2. Refer to the sample system schematic in section 7.1. Open the inlet isolation valve slowly until a small ﬂow of air/gas (at atmospheric pressure) ﬂows through the inlet pipe work to the sensor holder, exhausting through the sensor entry port of the sensor holder. Allow this purge to continue for about 15 to 20 minutes to remove any residual moisture from the sample pipe work and components. Close the inlet isolation valve and install the sensor into the sensor holder. Locate and coaxial cable in positioned on the sensor. Open the inlet valve slowly, by opening all valves after the sensor holder, allow a low-pressure purge through the whole sample system. Note: If a closed by-pass loop is installed, this section of the procedure is not possible. Set the required ﬂows within the sample loop. This completes the installation and commissioning, but on initial start-up, it could take several hours for the system to reach equilibrium. The Model 6020 will now indicate the dewpoint of the air/gas surrounding the sensor, and the analogue output will be giving mA signals proportional to the indicated dewpoint. 12 1931 - Iss 2 - 03/14 Model 6020 9 AutoCal Calibration (Sensor Ranges up to 0°C dewpoint) The system relies on the fact that each sensor is designed to give no further increase in reading when it reaches its maximum moisture level. This means that, for instance, the Silver Spot or Red Spot sensor will read –20°C Dewpoint when it is exposed to gas at –20°C Dewpoint, but will continue to read -20°C Dewpoint when it is exposed to wetter gas. The system can therefore be calibrated very simply by exposing the sensor to anything wetter than –20°C Dewpoint and adjusting the reading to that point on the display. For the Grey Spot Sensor the maximum level is 0°C dewpoint and the same principle applies but the gas must be above 0°C. In practice, an AutoCal is performed as follows:1. 2. 3. 4. Ensure the Model 6020 is powered up and displaying the moisture content in °C Dewpoint. Remove the sensor from the sensor holder and expose it to ambient conditions for at least 1 minute. Check the Model 6020 reading. It should display the maximum level of Dew point for the instrument (i.e. –20°C for Red and 0°C for Grey). If the unit is reading incorrectly then use a small screwdriver to turn the Autocal potentiometer (found on the front panel of the instrument under the knurled cap) clockwise to increase the reading (wetter) or anticlockwise to decrease it (dryer). 10 AutoCal Calibration (Sensor Ranges up to +20°C dewpoint) In order to calibrate a +20°C Sensors, it is necessary to measure the ambient air Dewpoint by some other method. Careful use of a sling or whirling hygrometer can achieve accurate results or a cooled mirror device can be used. The following procedure should be used:1. 2. 3. Ensure the Model 6020 is powered up and displaying the moisture content in °C Dewpoint. Remove the sensor from the sensor holder and expose it to ambient conditions for at least 1 minute. Compare the reading of the Model 6020 in the ambient air, against the actual moisture level obtained by another method. Turn the Autocal potentiometer (found on the front panel of the instrument under the knurled cap) using a small screwdriver clockwise to increase the reading (wetter) or anticlockwise to decrease it (dryer). 1931 - Iss 2 - 03/14 13 Model 6020 11 Entering numerical data . 6020 MENU UNITS AL 1 C AL 1 AL 2 AL 2 ESC AUTOCAL MODEL 6020 DEWPOINT HYGROMETER Keys Function Returns the user to the previous screen, without changing any variables.

To save a new value, press the return key repeatedly until 00000 are displayed for 1 second and the word  is shown. At this point the new data will be saved automatically. Pressing the escape key, or if the Model 6020 “Times Out” your new data values will not be saved. 13.2.5 Viewing the ADC values in measurement mode Additionally an option is also enabled by this Lin password which for the extent of the powered on state will display in measurement mode the instrument’s current analogue to digital converter count ‘ADC’ value via a  no choice after the main display message prompt . This feature may be useful for calibration laboratory work. 13.3 Analogue output The Model 6020 features an analogue output port which the user may use to retransmit the moisture reading to another system. The wiring connected to this output must only be connected to signals complying with the requirements for Safety Extra Low Voltage (SELV) circuits. The output however beneﬁts from galvanic isolation and segregation by isolated electrical circuits. The analogue output is a current output. It is always enabled and care should be exercised therefore to ensure that during installation the two terminals are not shorted and have a load attached more than 200 Ω for optimum performance. Remote Equipment + Zero By factory default, the output is linear to match the selected units.

Furthermore the factory default conﬁguration is that the output current ranges from 4 to 20 mA. Therefore using the above example the port will be providing 4 mA when the instrument display is at -80°C dewpoint . -80.0 C +4.00 mA ESC And the output provides 20 mA when the display is at +20°C dewpoint. . 20.0 C +20.00 mA ESC If a sensor is detected as short circuit then the current output will rise to +20.25 mA. . ----- C +20.25 mA ESC 24 1931 - Iss 2 - 03/14 Model 6020 If required there is facility to change the output current calibration points at either end of the scale to attain a more focused signal. For example: Moving the lower scale point from -80°C dewpoint to –60°C may be desirable and can be achieved by the following entry to the instrument conﬁguration.

It is, however, advisable to inspect the sample loop periodically to ensure that the required ﬂows are being maintained. The number and type of items employed in the sample loop will determine what, if any, routine checks should be made. If, for instance, a ﬁlter is used, the ﬁlter element should be inspected periodically and changed when necessary. The instrument should not require any routine maintenance, but if any malfunction is suspected, it is advisable to contact your local dealer. Should it be necessary at any time or for whatever reason, to change either the instrument or sensor, it should be noted that the instrument and sensor are completely interchangeable. 15 Error Messages Message Description 30 ----- Sensor or sensor cable is short-circuited.
