2. OVERVIEW
There are two types of measurement cell packages available for the Courier
analyzer:
Analyzer probe with Automatic Window Changer (AWC)
Analyzer probe with Sample Cell Assembly (SCA)
These measurement cell types are described in more detail in the following
section.

Code 10000006053e
Revision A
Page 5 (30)
2.1 Analyzer probe with AWC

The AWC is a mechanism that performs an automatic window change. When
changing the window, the AWC automatically releases the measurement cell
and the measurement cell window film, winds the window film forward
approximately 10 cm, and tightens the measurement cell window film and the
measurement cell.
The window film lasts up to 700 window changes, and therefore, the window
film storage reel needs to be changed manually at approx. six month intervals. If
there is a malfunction in the measurement cell mechanisms, e.g., the motor is
down, you can also change the window film manually.
The analyzer probe with AWC is comprised of:
Measurement cell
Window film reels
Window film material
Capstan motor
Cylinders and their valves
Moisture leakage detection

Functionality
The AWC can either be used for a window change that is automatically
repeated in a certain interval or for a window change that is triggered by using
the commands on the Probe Control Set display. The default interval, which is
the actual time the sample has flown through the measurement cell, for the
automatic window change is 8 hours. The interval can be changed in the user
parameters. You can also set the AWC not to do automatic window changes at
all with an analyzer parameter.
Each window changing operation includes four different phases that are run
automatically. The phases are:
The measurement cell is flushed
The measurement cell is drained
The measurement cell window is changed
The water test is run
The measurement cell window change is based on a pulse mechanism that
stops the film winding when the proximity sensor has counted a certain amount
of pulses for new window film. The measurement cell window change in itself
includes five phases:
Releasing the measurement cell and the measurement cell window
Starting the window winding motor
Changing the window (winding the window forward)
Stopping the window winding motor
Locking the measurement cell window and the measurement cell
After the automatic window change and a successful water test, measurements
are continued normally.
2.2 Analyzer probe with SCA

In the SCA, the automatic window changing functions cannot be used and the
measurement cell maintenance tasks must be performed manually.
The measurement cell area is comprised of:
Measurement cell
Discrete measurement cell window
Measurement cell window clamping ring
Protective window ring
Moisture leakage detection

3. RADIATION SAFETY
The analyzer, and the measurement cell, meets all the radiation safety
regulations of the European Union. No radiation can be detected inside or
outside the probe covers. Radiation safety is guaranteed by using redundant
fail-safe sensors with hard-wired interlock circuits that shut down the X-ray
power.
Radiation in use indicator
The X-ray ON indicator lights are located on the roof of the analyzer probe and
on the control panel of the Probe Control Set. The X-ray ON light indicates that
the interlock circuit is closed and the high voltage power supply of the X-ray
tube is on. The X-ray OFF lights indicate when the interlock circuit is open and
the high voltage power supply is off.
Figure 4. The X-ray ON indicator light.
Only trained and authorized personnel are allowed to open the

measurement cell or the side covers of the analyzer probe.
Radiation safety interlocks

The analyzer includes safety interlocks that provide extra protection both for the
user and for the X-ray tube during maintenance procedures. The radiation
safety interlocks ensure that:
When you enter the measurement cell maintenance mode, the high voltage
of the X-ray tube is automatically switched off before you are able to open
the measurement cell lock. The high voltage remains in the OFF position
through the whole maintenance process.
If the high voltage of the X-ray tube is not switched to OFF within a given
time limit, an event message is triggered and you are not able to open the
measurement cell lock, nor can you enter the maintenance mode.
The maintenance mode function can be called only if the reference is in
front of the X-ray tube and blocking the radiation.
The mechanical design ensures that the analyzer can provide radiation safety.

Code 10000006053e
Revision A
Page 9 (30)
During the automatic window change, the measurement cell is not opened
and the high voltage of the X-ray tube is ON. If the window change fails,
the high voltage is switched OFF.

5.3 Maintenance in fault situations

This section provides you with detailed instructions on how to proceed in a fault
situation. If there is a malfunction in the measurement cell, the system
generates an alarm indication that informs you about the situation. First check
the alarm in the local display and then check events for more detailed
information about the cause of the situation.
Alarms and events in AWC fault situations

This section describes the alarms that might occur when working with the AWC.
You are provided with a detailed account of the causes for different alarms and
with instructions on how to proceed when you receive a certain AWC related
alarm. The possible AWC related alarms include:
MC window rupture
MC window change failed
MC window change out of film
Measurement cell open/removed
Measurement cell blocked
The instructions on how to proceed when you receive any of these alarms are
presented in the following sections.

Code 10000006053e
Revision A
Page 21 (30)
MC window rupture
The MC window rupture alarm indicates either that the measurement cell
window is ruptured or that there is moisture between the measurement cell
window and the protective window. The alarm stops all measurements in the
analyzer system and shuts down the power to the X-ray tube.
There is a moisture detection hardware sensor that triggers this alarm. Note that
the alarm remains until the measurement cell is opened and the window is
replaced / dried.
Check and correct the situation by doing the following:
1.
2.
Check, and clean the window opening.
3.
Change the measurement cell window.
4.
5.
Activate the Perform MC window change action to the command

button.

action. Wait for the measurement cell window change to complete.
Check the condition of the protective window.
If the protective window is dirty, wipe it with a dry cleaning tissue.
If the protective window is worn out or even ruptured, change the

protective window as described in section Changing the protective
window.
Test the moisture sensor by touching it with a moist tissue or fingers and
see whether an MC window rupture alarm is seen on the local display.
MC window rupture alarm should disappear after the moisture sensor

is dried.
If you encounter problems during or after this procedure, please contact the
maintenance service.
MC window change failed

The MC window change failed alarm indicates that an error occurred during
the automatic window change. As this alarm is triggered, the high voltage is
shut down. There can be several different reasons for this alarm: a malfunction
in the capstan motor, a cut in the window film, a loosely or wrong way turning
winding window film material around the lower reel, or a malfunction in the
proximity sensor.
MC window change first pulse timeout
If you receive an MC window change first pulse timeout alarm, which
indicates that the window film does not move, check and tighten the window
moving mechanism.

window film did not move enough.
There are two alternative procedures to correct this:
If the window film is cut or ruptured, follow the instructions in chapter MC
window rupture.
If the window film is finished, change the window film material. See chapter
Changing the window film reel for AWC for detailed instructions.
If you have completed the procedure successfully, the analyzer continues with
measuring the samples normally.

Code 10000006053e
Revision A
Page 23 (30)
MC window change out of film warning / alarm

The AWC incorporates a pulse mechanism to check the movement and
measure the consumption of the window film. These alarms are generated,
when the pulse count reaches parameterized limit values.
The warning indicates that you should be prepared to change the window film
reel.
When you receive the alarm, check whether the window film material is finished
In case the window film material is finished, proceed as is described in
Changing the window film reel for AWC.
In case the window film material is not finished, the pulse counter has not
been reset or the pulse count limit parameters are not correct. Reset the
pulse counter, or set the limit parameters correctly

The Measurement cell open/removed alarm indicates that the measurement
cell lock is open. The alarm stops all measurements in the analyzer system and
shuts down the power to the X-ray tube.
When you receive this alarm, do the following:
Enter maintenance mode.
Check the measurement cell cover mechanism.

Revision A
Page 24 (30)

The Measurement cell blocked alarm indicates that there is foreign material
(rocks, wood chips, plastic) in the measurement cell and/or in the related hoses.
The alarm sets the measurement cell and the related hoses into a fault state
immediately, and no samples will flow through the measurement cell until the
alarm is cleared. Only reference measurements are performed.
If you receive an event message indicating that the measurement cell is
blocked, do the following:
1.
2.
Remove the sample cell frame.
3.

5.4 Special situations

There are certain special situations that you might encounter with AWC and/or
SCA. These situations include:
Manual AWC window change.
A separate window filmstrip used with the AWC.
Changing the front plate of the sample cell applying to both measurement
cell types.
These special situations are described in more detail in the following.
Changing the window for the measurement cell with AWC

If you have a measurement cell with AWC, you do not need to change the
measurement cell window under normal operating conditions. If there is a
malfunction in the measurement cell mechanisms, for example, the motor is
down, you can change the window manually.
Before you intend to change the window manually you must disable the
automatic window change by setting the appropriate user parameter at
