Calibrations
Depending on the number of gases to be analysed, a suitable calibration gas must be selected. Furthermore, the type of gas also influences the optimal calibration gas. Because of the almost infinite number of possible combinations, the following list should therefore only be understood as a first overview.
Measurement of Humid Gases
When measuring humid gases, it is essential to prevent condensation of the water vapour inside the sensor. The following diagram shows the maximum water vapour concentration in volume % as a function of temperature at the standard pressure 1013 mbar.
The diagram shows:
Condensation can be prevented by the following measures:
With the optional Humidity Sensor the relative humidity can be measured in the measuring range of 0 ~ 100% rH. Furthermore, the absolute humidity can be measured as well in g/m³. Both values are displayed in the supplied software.
Disadvantages of electrochemical (EC) sensors in comparison to the optical RITTER »MultiGas« Sensors
Preventive / Protective Measures with Gas Measurements
Important: Please specify the desired options when ordering
a) Additional tube connection for flushing of the casing
The gas lines inside the casing and the measuring cuvette are gas-tight by means of O-rings and other gas-tight connections. However, as with all connections, a leakage rate, however slight, cannot be ruled out. With an additional tube connection for flushing of the casing, an accumulation of the measuring gas inside the casing can be prevented.
In the case of toxic or aggressive gases, a suction line can be connected via this tube connection, which creates a under-pressure inside the housing thus preventing the gas from escaping from the casing.
In case of ignitable gases (methane, hydrogen, etc.), a pressure or suction line can be connected via this tube connection creating an over- or under-pressure inside the casing thus preventing the accumulation of an ignitable gas mixture.
Please note: H2S can be perceived as an unpleasant smell even in the ppb range. Even with an O-ring seal, micro-leaks can occur, which can be extracted by flushing the housing.
b) Heated and thermostatted casing
Condensation of the measuring gas inside of the sensor must be prevented. This can generally be achieved with a condensation trap or gas cooler. Please also refer to Measurement of Humid Gases. Alternatively, the inside of the sensor casing can be heated and thermostatted at 50 °C (standard). The heating not only avoids condensation inside of the sensor but ensures constant measurement results as well. See Heating and Thermostatting of Sensor Casing.
c) Particle filter
Please make sure by use of a suitable filter that no particles are carried into the sensor. These might block the small openings of the internal fittings. It is recommended to use filters of 5 micron or smaller.

Setup
- Unpack all items carefully.
- Install the data acquisition software according to the »RITTER MultiGas Software Manual«.
Don’t start the software at this point in time. - Positioning of the sensor:
- If the sensor is used in combination of a RITTER MilliGascounter, the sensor must be positioned (in flow direction) in front of the MilliGascounter if this MilliGascounter is filled with HCl solution. Otherwise, the sensor could be damaged by the HCl vapour coming out of the MilliGascounter.
- Place the sensor next to the gas source.
Please note: A tube connection between gas source and sensors that is as short as possible allows a small dead space created by the tubing. In turn, a small dead space enables a fast response time of the sensor.
- Connect the power adapter to socket »DC 24 V« at the rear side of the sensor and to mains.
- Connect the data acquisition cable to the respective socket at the rear side of the sensor and to the computer:
- USB cable to the socket »USB«
- RS232 cable to the socket »RS 232« (option)
- Connect the gas source to the gas inlet port of the sensor by using the provided tubing as follows:
- Remove the screw caps as well as the red rubber caps of the transport lock from the gas inlet and gas outlet.
- Slide the screw cap onto the end of the gas inlet tube with the thread of the screw cap facing the tube end.
- Push the tube onto the cone in the center of the gas inlet port.
- Slide the screw cap on the gas inlet port and screw it in place hand-tight.
- If applicable: Connect the gas outlet port of the sensor to other components such as gas sampling bags, exhaust tubing etc. The connection of the tube on the gas outlet port takes place in the same way as described above.
- Switch-on the power switch at the front side of the sensor casing.
- Start the software and open the COM port(s) of the connected sensor module(s) according to the software manual.
The RITTER »MultiGas« Sensor is now ready for use.
Infrared Sensors
MultiGas Infrared Module NDIR
Description
Gas analysis based on the NDIR technique is an established method to determine the concentrations of gases in complex mixtures. The RITTER »MultiGas« sensors use new optical components for optimal analysis results: Up to 3 optical filters analyse the gas which flows through the sensor as one gas stream. The optional oxygen, pressure, and humidity sensors are in-line with the same single gas stream.
The individual internal modules are sealed by means of O-ring connections.
In order to achieve an optimum adaptation to the required measuring range, the lengths of the modular measurement cells (= cuvettes) can be implemented in the range of 5 mm (large measurement range in percentage level) up to 250 mm (small measurement range in ppm level).
Cuvettes with a length ≥ 20 mm are coated with a resistant gold layer in order to improve the reflection properties for low concentration level detection. Cuvettes used with aggressive gases are gold-coated as well.
The other internal mechanical parts are made out of aluminium, optionally out of stainless steel.
For fast response applications the measuring system delivers a stable result within t90 ≈ 3 seconds.
The entire unit can be disassembled for easy maintenance/service.

Infrared module NDIR Ultraviolet module NDUV
Definition of Detection Limit
The Detection Limit is the smallest measurement value which can be obtained with a specific uncertainty. This uncertainty includes the resolution, noise and stability of the gas sensor for a specific gas and specific measurement range. For evaluation of the detection limit value, several single measurements are taken at the identical measurement conditions. With the obtained single measurement results the standard deviation “Sigma” (σ) is calculated. The values given in the table equal the triple amount of Sigma.
Recalibrations
The following recalibration intervals are recommended for IR sensors:
Ultraviolet Sensors
The RITTER »MultiGas« UV sensor is the world’s first gas analysis module based on miniaturized UV-LEDs. The stability and lifetime of these UV-LEDs enables high-precision gas analysis down to the ppm range. By using two UV-LEDs two gases can be detected simultaneously. Furthermore, with this approach measuring ranges from ppm to Vol.-% can be realized. In the spectral range from 200 nm to 500 nm, nitrogen oxides (NO + NO2), aromatic hydrocarbons, hydrogen sulphide, ozone, sulphur dioxide and chlorine can be reliably detected with this new sensor platform. The entire unit can be disassembled for easy maintenance/service. The individual internal modules are sealed by means of O-ring connections. In order to achieve an optimum adaptation to the required measuring range, the lengths of the modular measurement cells (= cuvettes) can be implemented in the range of 5 mm (large measurement range in percentage level) up to 250 mm (small measurement range in ppm level). Cuvettes with a length ≥ 20 mm are coated with a resistant gold layer in order to improve the reflection properties for low concentration level detection. Cuvettes used with aggressive gases are gold-coated as well. The internal mechanical parts are made out of aluminium, optionally out of stainless steel.

This uncertainty includes the resolution, noise and stability of the gas sensor for a specific gas and specific measurement range. For evaluation of the detection limit value, several single measurements are taken at the identical measurement conditions. With the obtained single measurement results the standard deviation “Sigma” (σ) is calculated. The values given in the table equal the triple amount of Sigma. The following recalibration intervals are recommended for UV sensors: For the detection of NO an EDL (electrodeless gas discharge lamp) is used. In the EDL, N2 and O2 are converted to NO and produce a selective UV radiation. With this radiation, a cross-sensitivity-free NO measurement is made possible. This method is called UV resonance absorption spectroscopy (UVRAS). A combination of both the UVRAS and NDUV technology allows the simultaneous gas analysis of NO, NO2 and SO2 in the lower ppm range which is particularly important in flue gas analysis (Continuous Emission Monitoring, CEM).

This uncertainty includes the resolution, noise and stability of the gas sensor for a specific gas and specific measurement range. For evaluation of the detection limit value, several single measurements are taken at the identical measurement conditions. With the obtained single measurement results the standard deviation “Sigma” (σ) is calculated. The values given in the table equal the triple amount of Sigma. The following recalibration intervals are recommended for UV sensors: The H2S sensor works according to the principle of non-dispersive UV absorption (NDUV). The measuring wavelength used is in the lower nanometer range, which enables interference-free measurements with water vapour and hydrocarbons. This makes the sensor ideal for use in biogas measurements, as accompanying gases such as NH3, CO2, CH4 and H2O do not affect the accuracy of the measurements. In contrast to photometric NDUV sensors the lifetime of electrochemical sensors for measurement of H2S is limited. Please note that lifetime data for such sensors are given for air and not for measurement of H2S. For H2S concentrations > 200 ppm the lifetime is reduced, for concentrations > 1000 ppm critical. While the measurement performance of UV-LED is constant, EC sensors are becoming »deaf«.

The following recalibration intervals are recommended for UV sensors: The oxygen sensor is a sensor module available as option in addition to a RITTER »MultiGas« NDIR or NDUV sensor. The measured oxygen concentration is displayed in the provided software. The sensor is built into the casing of the RITTER »MultiGas« sensors. The following versions are available: * related to Pa = 1013 hPa, Ta = 25 °C, RH = 50%, flow = 2.5 l/min A change in the gas and/or atmospheric pressure causes a change in the number of molecules per volume and thus a change in gas density. This density change in turn has a significant influence on the result of the concentration measurement by the sensor. By measuring the gas pressure inside of the sample cell (cuvette), the value of the concentration measurement is compensated / corrected. The pressure sensor enables an increase in the accuracy of the gas analysis measurement by a factor of 15: The pressure sensor is a sensor module available as option in addition to a RITTER »MultiGas« NDIR or NDUV sensor.

The Analog Voltage Output Module allows the simultaneous output of up to 4 different values at 4 separate channels: For connection to an analog data acquisition device the analog voltage output port alternatively provides the following voltage levels: The voltage range is pre-set according to the order and cannot be changed by the user. Please note the assignments of the respective gas concentration measurements to the respective channels. These assignments are stated in the Calibration Protocol of the sensor unit. Assignment of contacts to the channels of the gas concentration measurements at the socket and plug of the Analog Voltage Output: Analogue output signals of oxygen and humidity sensors: The connection cable is delivered with open wires to be connected to the analog data acquisition device of the user. The wire colours are listed in the above table. In order to avoid condensation of humid gas inside of the sensor, the sensor and sensor casing can be heated and thermostatted. By default, the temperature controller is preset to 50 °C; lower temperatures are possible on request. The heating element and temperature controller are mounted at the support of the measurement cuvette.MultiGas Ultraviolet Module NDUV
