Note
The sensors are described in detail in separate manuals which is part of their delivery.
ATEX sensors
The sensors are also available in an ATEX version - see also separate user manual. These
have very low power electronics and are intrinsically safe. For use in areas with potentially
explosive atmosphere a barrier box must be installed additionally.
For further information regarding the ATEX option please refer to the separate ATEX manual
for LDS 6.
Parts in contact with the process gases
The sensors normally do not come into contact with the process gas, since purging with a
gaseous media is applied at the process side. Stainless steel purging gas tubes in front of
the sensor windows immerse slightly into the process gas and thus limit the purging volume.
Special materials such as Hastelloy, plastics (PP) and ceramics are available on request.

Technical Information
2.3 Operating Principle
2.3
Operating Principle
LDS 6 is a gas analyzer employing single-line molecular absorption spectroscopy. A diode
laser emits a beam of near-infrared light, which passes through the process gas and is
detected by a receiver unit. The wavelength of the laser diode output is tuned to a gasspecific absorption line. The laser continuously scans this single absorption line with a very
high spectral resolution.
The result is a fully resolved single molecular line which is analyzed in terms of absorption
strength and line shape. The influence of cross-sensitivities on the measurement is
negligible, since the quasi-monochromatic laser light is absorbed very selectively by only one
specific molecular line in the scanned spectral range.

2.4 Configuration Examples
2.4
Configuration Examples
A feature of the in-situ analytical procedure is that the physical measurement takes place
directly in the stream of process gas, and usually also directly in the actual process gas line.
All process parameters such as gas matrix, pressure, temperature, moisture, dust load, flow
velocity and mounting orientation can influence the measuring properties of the LDS 6 and
must therefore be systematically investigated for each new application.

Typical transmitted light setup of LDS 6, in-situ
A feature of the standard applications defined in the ordering data of the LDS 6 is that the
typical process conditions are well-known and documented, and that the guaranteed
measuring properties can be proven by reference installations. If you cannot find your
application among the standard applications, please contact Siemens. We will be pleased to
check your possible individual application of the LDS 6. You can find an application
questionnaire on the LDS product sites on the Internet.
To avoid contamination of sensor openings on the process side, clean gaseous purging
media are used such as instrument air, N2 or steam. Purging air tubes on the sensor heads,
which slightly penetrate into the process gas stream, define the effective measuring path
length.

The LDS 6 can measure in both the transverse and longitudinal directions of the process gas
flow. In certain cases, the process conditions make it necessary to condition the sample gas
stream in a bypass line with respect to process temperature, pressure and/or optical path
length. Further treatment of the process gas, such as drying or dust precipitation, is usually
not necessary.

Measurement Principle
Mode of operation
The operation of LDS 6 is based on the fact that light propagating through a gas mixture will
be absorbed according to Beer-Lambert's law at certain narrow wavelength bands. This is
where the gases possess molecular transitions forming narrow absorption lines.
The light source in LDS 6 is a semi-conductor laser tuned to an appropriate absorption line
for the gas to be measured. The laser light is spectrally much narrower than the gas
absorption line and this, together with a proper choice of absorption line, will result in low
interference from other gases.
The light is modulated, both in frequency and in amplitude, to facilitate detection on the
second harmonic as well as elimination of contribution from spectrally broad absorption
originating from dust, smoke, etc.
LDS 6 is connected to the measuring points by fiber optics. The laser light is guided by a
single-mode fiber from the central unit to the transmitter unit of the in-situ sensor. The sensor
consists of a transmitter and a receiver; the distance between them defines the
measurement path. In the receiver box, the light is focused onto a suitable detector. The
detector signal is then converted into an optical signal and transmitted via a second optical
fiber to the central unit, where the concentration of the gas component is determined from
the detected absorption signal.
LDS 6 usually measures a single gas component by means of the absorption capacity of a
single fully resolved molecular absorption line. The absorption results from conversion of the
radiation energy of the laser light into the internal energy of the molecule. In the working
range of the LDS 6, both rotation-vibration transitions and electronic transitions – such as
with O2 – can be triggered.
In some specific cases, two components can be measured simultaneously if their absorption
lines are so close to each other that they can be detected within the laser spectrum by one
single scan (for example water (H2O) and ammonia (NH3)).

Absorption spectra of water and ammonia
Moreover, in some applications it is possible to determine the gas temperature as a
measured value. In this case, the ratio of the absorbance of two characteristic lines of the
same molecule measured at the same time in the same volume gives the actual temperature
in the process gas.
Typical measurable gases for LDS 6 are:
● Oxygen (O2) for low and high pressure
● Oxygen + temperature
● Hydrogen fluoride (HF) + water
● Hydrogen chloride (HCl) + water
● Ammonia (NH3) + water
● Water vapor (H2O)
● Carbon monoxide (CO)
● Carbon dioxide (CO2)
● CO + CO2
By using an internal reference cell normally filled with the gas measured, the stability of the
spectrometer is permanently checked in a reference channel.
By doing so, the continuous validity of the calibration is ensured without the need to carry out
external recalibration using bottled test gases or reference gas cells.

Influences on the measurement
Dust load
As long as the laser beam is able to generate a suitable detector signal, the dust load of the
process gases does not influence the analytical result. By applying a dynamic background
correction, measurements can be carried out without any negative impact. Under good
conditions, particle densities up to 100 g/Nm3 can be handled by the LDS 6. Varying dust
loads are compensated by scanning the laser over the gas absorption line and the current
background. At a scan position next to the absorption line, the instrument can "see" only
absorption caused by the dust load where at the line center the signal is composed of the
molecular absorption and the continuous, unspecific background absorption. With the
wavelength modulation technique, the actual measured transmission is always compared
with the baseline. After signal processing, phase-sensitive application delivers a signal only
from the molecular line free of background.
The influence of a high dust load is complex and depends on the path length and particle
size. The optical damping increases at longer path lengths. Smaller particles also have a
large influence on the optical damping. With a combination of high dust load, long path
length and small particle size, the technical support at Siemens should be consulted.
Temperature
The temperature influence on the absorption line strength is compensated by a correction
factor determined during calibration. A temperature signal can be fed into the instrument
from an external temperature sensor. This signal is then used to correct the influence of the
temperature on the observed line strength. If the temperature of the sample gas remains
constant, it is alternatively possible to carry out a static correction using a preset value.
At high temperatures there may be noticeable broadband IR radiation of gas and dust, or
flames may occasionally occur in the measurement path. In this case the detector is
protected by an optical bandpass filter to prevent saturation by the strong background
radiation.

Technical Information
2.5 Measurement Principle
Pressure
The gas pressure can affect the line shape of the molecular absorption line. LDS 6 uses a
special algorithm to adapt the line shape. Additionally, an external pressure signal can be fed
to the instrument to provide complete compensation for the pressure influence including the
density effect.
Cross-interferences
Since LDS 6 derives its signal from a single fully resolved molecular absorption line, crossinterferences with other gases are quite unlikely. LDS 6 is therefore able to measure the
desired gas components very selectively. In special cases, the composition of the process
gas might have an influence on the shape of the absorption line features. This influence is
compensated by analyzing the full shape of the detected signal curve applying specific
algorithms.
Optical path length
The absorption values analyzed by the LDS 6 are typically small. As a result of BeerLambert’s law, the absorption of laser light depends on the optical path length within the gas.
Therefore, the precision in determining the effective optical path length in the process might
limit the overall precision of the measurement.
As the sensor openings toward the process normally need to be purged to keep them clean
over a long period of time, the thickness of the mixing zone between the purging medium
and the process gas and its concentration distribution need to be considered. In a typical insitu installation with some meters of path, the influence of the purging gas on the effective
path length can be neglected.
Path length and dust load are mutually influencing: the higher the dust load in the process,
the shorter the max. possible path length.
Note
Individual requirements for the measuring point can make the utilization of special sensor
equipment necessary. The possibilities for adapting the sensors are:
• Different purging media, such as instrument air, ambient air, nitrogen or steam
• Different purging modes on process and sensor sides
• Special materials of purging tubes and/or sensor flanges
• Cooling or heating of the sensors
• EEx-proof sensor configurations

Installation Guidelines
3.1 Safety Information
Heat Safety
Some metal parts and piping placed near the sensors are at elevated temperatures. The
reason is high temperature purging - either from steam or from air.
CAUTION
The sensors are designed for work at elevated temperatures, particularly when a purging
system is in operation. Even after operation these parts cool off slowly.
For any work around these sensors be sure to wear protective gloves.
If this rule is not followed serious burns of the unprotected skin may happen.
Pressure Safety
The sensor is tested at a pressure of 600 kPa. This pressure value should not be exceeded
in operational conditions.
WARNING
Should pressures higher than 600 kPa occur in the process, this can lead to destruction of
the sensors and their environment. In worst case process media may break free and pollute
the environment.
Avoid under any circumstances process pressures higher than 600 kPa.
If this rule is not followed, death, injuries and/or damage to property and environment can
occur.

Signal Cable Connection
CAUTION
The signal voltages must be electrically isolated extra-low voltages (SELV). The maximum
voltage potential accessible to persons is 33 Veff or 46,7 V peak or 70 V dc. If several SELV
voltages are available, then it is possible that the sum of these potentials is higher than that
allowed to get in contact with the human body.
WARNING
The signal cables must only be connected to devices which guarantee safe isolation from
their power supply.
If signals (i.e. analog output 4-20 mA) are to be routed into a potentially explosive
atmosphere of zone 1, they must be intrinsically safe. Supplementary retrofitting of the
analyzer with energy-limiting modules is necessary.
The Ex identification of these modules must be clearly visible on the housing:
● The signal cables in the rack mount analyzer are connected to the DSUB plugs at the
rear.
● RC elements must be connected according to the figure "Spark suppression" below as a
measure to suppress the generation of sparks across the relay contacts (i.e. limit relays).
Note that the RC element results in a drop-out delay for an inductive component (i.e.
solenoid valve). The RC element should therefore be dimensioned according to the
following rule-of-thumb:
R [Ω] ≅ 0.2 x RL [Ω] C [µF] ≅ IL [A]
Additionally, make sure that you only use a non-polarized capacitor C.
Note
When using direct current, it is possible to fit a spark suppression diode instead of the RC
element.
The cables to the relay outputs and binary inputs as well as the analog inputs and outputs
must be screened. They must be connected to the corresponding trapezoidal DSUB plug
according to the diagram "Pin assignments for I/O connectors". The conductor cross-section
should be 0.5 mm2. It is recommended to use cables of type JE-LiYCY... BD. The cable
length of the analog outputs depends on the load.

Spark suppression on a relay contact
The preceding figure shows an example of measure to suppress sparks on a relay contact.
Since the DSUB connector and the spacings on board and on connector are only suitable for
detachable voltages (signal) and as the power is located outside this powers supply, circuit
must be SELV and the power must be limited according to EN61010-1 (Table 13 or 14)
when an over current protective device is used.
● The reference ground of the analog inputs is the housing potential.
● The analog outputs are floating, also with respect to one another.
● The interface cable must be screened and connected to housing potential. The cable
screen must be connected with a large-area contact to the screen of the DSUB plug. The
conductor cross-section should be at least 0.5 mm2. The interface cable must not be
longer than 500 meters (1,640 ft).
● In the case of analyzers with two or three channels, the analyzer sections are connected
in parallel and the signal cables of each channel are independent. Only the power plug is
common to all channels.

3.5 Flange Installation Requirements
3.5
Flange Installation Requirements
Before the gas analyzer and its sensors can be used, a pair of process flanges should be
installed at the measurement site. The flanges must be installed at a safe and accessible
position to make installation and service easy to accomplish.
The flanges should be welded to the wall of the furnace or funnel as shown in the figure
below.
The flange must protrude at least 100 mm (4") from the wall and 0-30 mm (0-1.2") into the
furnace/funnel.
Figure 3-6
Sensor CD 6 mounted on a process flange
There are applications where furnace walls move due to variations in temperature. If the
furnace walls move the sensors will be miss-aligned and the measurement interrupted. To
overcome this, the sensor can be fixed to a girder or other structure that is not influenced by
the temperature and the flexible metal tube is fitted between the process flange and the
sensor flange. Remember that the flanges fitted for the sensors must not deviate more than
±2°.
Note
It is very important that the flanges are mounted so that they are aligned. Otherwise the
measurements will not be correct.
3.6
Installation of Flanges
When welding the flange tubes it is recommended to have the Flange Alignment Kit. The
Flange Alignment Kit from Siemens consists of a light source, two flanges, an aiming tool
and a battery charger for the light source.
Make sure there is enough room for the sensor. Especially take into consideration that it
should be easy to mount or dismount and that the sensors lid should be able to open fully.
Safe working space around the sensors are also needed, guardrails, ladders, etc. The figure
below illustrates the process for installation of flanges.

This is the alignment procedure
1. Weld the flange tubes loosely on each side of the wall. Do not weld them so hard that the
angle of the tubes can not be adjusted with a hammer.
2. Mount the light source on one flange and the aiming tool on the other flange.
3. Turn on the light source.
4. Adjust the focus on the aiming tool until the light spot from the light source is sharp.
5. Adjust the angle of the process flange tube, using for instance a rubber hammer, until the
light spot is centered on the cross hair on the aiming tool.
6. Weld the aligned flange tube permanently into this position.
7. Shift light source and aiming tool and repeat the procedure above for the opposite flange
until the other tube also is permanently welded.
Note
It is important that the flanges are aligned from both sides. Therefore, remember to shift
light source and aiming tool and repeat the procedure from the other side as well. It is
also important that the sensor flanges are oriented in such a way that the spring loaded
bolts are located in the lower section of the flange.

Customer flange alignment
The required precision of the flange alignment
The aim should always be to achieve the best possible alignment of the flanges, i.e. to get
the center of the dot as close as possible to the center of the crosshair on the alignment tool.
This will allow for small changes, for example caused by thermal movement later on.
For a normal installation using standard 400 mm purging tubes the alignment is usually good
enough if the center of the dot is within 3 mm from the center. The lines closest to the center
of the crosshair are about 3 mm from the center.
Note
If long purging tubes will be used, a greater effort should be made to align the flanges
perfectly. Depending on the diameter and length of the stubs the possibility to align the
sensors is more restricted when long purging tubes are used.

Coding of Analyzer
After returning to measuring screen using ESC or MEAS, the symbol CODE in the status
line shows that the analyzer is still in service mode ⑦. The analyzer can be coded again (
CODE) by pressing the MEAS key once more ⑧, thus entering Measuring Mode ⑨.
Simultaneously with the symbol CODE the symbol CTRL (Function control) appears in
the status line, showing that the analyzer is not in measuring mode. External signaling via a
relay contact is then possible if a corresponding relay has been configured with CTRL under
function 71.
Fast Selection of Functions
A "Power user" input has been incorporated to allow immediate switching from the
measuring display to the desired function display if frequent inputs are necessary. It is then
possible to directly access the desired function by bypassing the menu levels. The "Power
user" input can only be started from the Measuring Screen and comprises the following input
steps:
● Enter number of desired function in measuring screen using the digit keys;
● Press the soft key next to the desired component;
● If you do not have the required privileges to change the desired function you will be
requested to enter the password.
For a channel with two components on a three-channel instrument you must first press the
soft key next to the desired channel and thereafter (in the next window) press the soft key
next to the desired component.

The analyzer functions can be divided into the following three categories:
● Analyzer-specific functions act on all channels and components of the analyzer,
independently from the analyzer component through which the function was called.
● Channel-specific functions act on all components of the corresponding channel,
independently from the analyzer component through which the function was called.
● Component-specific functions act on a single component, and can only be called through

You can use this function to display logged messages. Any event which leads to a
maintenance request (W) or fault message (S) is listed in the logbook (for a more
detailed description of error handling see the chapter Alarms.
Limit alarms (LIM), transmission alarms (TR), and function check (CTRL) are also
recorded. However, these do not trigger a maintenance request or fault message.
The soft key can be used to acknowledge the respective fault entry. The dot will then
disappear. A "+" sign at the end of the entry means an activated alarm, a "-" sign an
inactivated alarm.
The logbook contains a maximum of ten pages, each of which can accommodate four
messages. It operates according to the principle of a circulating buffer, i.e. the oldest
message is overwritten when all ten pages are full (40 messages). Fault messages
are not deleted if they have not been acknowledged.
The logbook entries can be deleted or blocked (function 60), or also switched off
individually (function 88).
Note
If a fault occurs when the error message is switched off by function 88, there is no reaction at
the interface. This applies to the analog as well as to the relay outputs.

You can use this function to switch the mode of the analog output between NAMUR and non
NAMUR . If the NAMUR mode is chosen in this screen, the lower and upper limits of the analog
outputs are 3.8 and 21.5 mA respectively, according to the NAMUR standard. Otherwise the
limits are 2 and 21 mA. For both modes function 41 is used to set the limits of the analog output
range to 4 mA (start of scale) and 20 mA (full scale). This means that the wider output range
permits recording of measured values outside the adjusted output range, but the scaling is
identical to the 4 to 20 mA span.
If the function "Suppress negative measurement values" is activated, negative measured values
are set to the analog output value which corresponds to a measuring value of 0. This analog
output value depends on the adjusted measuring range.
If negative measured values have an unfavorable effect on further processing, activate this
function. The correct measured value is still output in the display.

Alarms
5.1
Alarm Response
LDS 6 is able to recognize and alarm for irregularities in its functions. There are five types of
alarms that can be triggered depending on the nature of the error:
● Maintenance request alarm
● Faults alarm
● Transmission alarm
● Limit alarm
● Function control alarm
Status Row
When the alarms limit (LIM), transmission limit (TR) or function control (CTRL) occur, their
corresponding square symbol in the status row will be lit (if this has been set up in function
53). If a Maintenance request or a Fault is triggered the text "Maintenance request" or "Fault"
will appear on the status line. This message is output alternately with the status messages.
"STO" and "CODE" may also appear in the status line, but these are not signaling for alarms
(see the chapter "Operation").
Table 5- 1

Ch1 NH3
At the same time that an alarm is activated (marked with a "+" sign) and inactivated (marked with
a "-" sign) a new message will appears in the logbook (function 3). The message will also show
the time when it was recorded in the logbook together with a short text describing the alarm.

Faults are considered to be more severe than other alarms and are therefore treated
somewhat different in the logbook. When a fault message first appears in the logbook it is
marked with a filled circle to the right. To inactivate the fault alarm the fault message must be
acknowledged by pressing the soft key next to it. This also removes the circle. The text in the
status line as well as the response by functions 71 and 77 will not change until the fault
message has been acknowledged. If the cause that triggered the fault alarm has not been
corrected, a new message will appear directly as soon as the first fault message is
acknowledged.
Every time a new message occurs, the report stored in the logbook is shifted by one memory
location. A total of 40 locations are available, and the oldest of the 40 reports is deleted
when a new one occurs. A power failure will delete all reports.

Function 60 can be used to switch off the logbook and also to delete the messages stored in
it.
The output of messages can become inconvenient particularly during test runs. Therefore
this function can be switched off using function 88. It is not recommended to use this facility
during normal operation.
Relays
If the relay outputs of the analyzer have been configured accordingly, it is possible to output
a signal when an alarm occurs.

General about Maintenance and Service
During normal use, the central unit LDS 6 requires no service. The sensor with its optical
surfaces will need regular maintenance. Depending on application and purging method, the
interval of maintenance may vary from 1 to 12 months.
If the transmission in a channel drops below the level set by the user, the transmission alarm
will be activated. The sensor in this channel needs to be serviced by cleaning the wedge
windows or realigning the optical path. For details on Maintenance and service of the sensor
delivered with your system, please refer to the corresponding sensor manual.
6.2
Cleaning the Central Unit
CAUTION
Always make absolutely sure that no water gets into the unit during cleaning.
Failure to do so may result in a breakdown of the unit!
Use only a dry cloth without any cleaning agents. Since the central unit contains optical
surfaces great care should be taken when cleaning. Only outer surfaces may be cleaned.
6.3
Cleaning the Wedge Windows
Before the sensors are removed make sure that:
● no purging is active
WARNING
Steam purging
Particularly when using steam for purging it is absolutely mandatory to turn it off since
overheated steam is not visible!
Failure do do so may result in severe burn damages!
● No hazardous or hot gases can escape from the process.
● Appropriate protection against hot surfaces on and around the sensor is used.

Maintenance and Service
6.4 Calibration Verification
To clean the wedge windows proceed as follows:
1. Release the lock ring closest to the process – use an appropriate tool – and pull the
sensor out.
2. Clean the window on the wedge tube. If the optical lens needs cleaning the second lock
ring needs to be released. Extra care should be taken since the lens is anti-reflection
coated and sensitive to scratches.
3. Clean the optical surface with a soft cloth or window cleaner containing ammonia. Soap
water also works fine in many cases. Start at the centre and work with circular
movements towards the rim.
4. Remove all dust particles using pressurized air or flushing water.
5. When the sensor is re-installed make sure that the guide pin fits the hole on the purging
flange. Screw on the lock ring and tighten it gently with the tool.
If this operation is performed properly, it will not affect the alignment of the sensor.
6.4
Calibration Verification
For ammonia (NH3) a calibration check of LDS 6 analyzer can be done using a reference cell
arrangement containing a mixture of the measurement gas and nitrogen. The unit should be
used in conjunction with the 2 meter hybrid cable that is delivered with each calibration
verification kit. This calibration check is described in a specific instruction.

Spare Parts List
7.1
Compatibility of detectors with central units
For all gases except O2, LDS6 exists in two versions as a consequence of a major upgrade.
Three of the LDS6 spare parts are affected by the change and will consequently exist in two
different versions. The "Sensor electronic" spare parts consist of one detector and one
detector PCB (A5E00681433) respectively. The PCB is not affected by the modification but
the detector is different. This spare parts list corresponds to the technical state of February
2009.
7.1.1
Detector Labels
The detector A5E-number indicates if a sensor is to be used with a Version 2 central unit.
Besides the example in the following picture also A5E1033996 (HCl) and A5E1030124 (CD
6C) are used with version 2.
The detector revision number (e.g. ES01) is only important if selecting a spare part that has
been stored for some time. To avoid degraded performance, do not use a spare part with a
lower revision number to replace a detector with higher revision number.

ESD guidelines
Definition of ESD
All electronic modules are equipped with large-scale integrated ICs or components. Due to
their design, these electronic elements are highly sensitive to overvoltage, and thus to any
electrostatic discharge.
The electrostatic sensitive components/modules are commonly referred to as ESD devices.
This is also the international abbreviation for such devices.
ESD modules are identified by the following symbol:
CAUTION
ESD devices can be destroyed by voltages well below the threshold of human perception.
These static voltages develop when you touch a component or electrical connection of a
device without having drained the static charges present on your body. The electrostatic
discharge current may lead to latent failure of a module, that is, this damage may not be
significant immediately, but in operation may cause malfunction.
Electrostatic charging
Anyone who is not connected to the electrical potential of their surroundings can be
electrostatically charged.
The figure below shows the maximum electrostatic voltage which may build up on a person
coming into contact with the materials indicated. These values correspond to IEC 801-2
specifications.

Electrostatic voltages on an operator
Basic protective measures against electrostatic discharge
● Ensure good equipotential bonding:
When handling electrostatic sensitive devices, ensure that your body, the workplace and
packaging are grounded. This prevents electrostatic charge.
● Avoid direct contact:
As a general rule, only touch electrostatic sensitive devices when this is unavoidable (e.g.
during maintenance work). Handle the modules without touching any chip pins or PCB
traces. In this way, the discharged energy can not affect the sensitive devices.
Discharge your body before you start taking any measurements on a module. Do so by
touching grounded metallic parts. Always use grounded measuring instruments.
