_ Hydrocarbon vapour in inert gas as a % Volume (tank scope function using an infra-red sensor). Infra-red (IR) Instruments - Operating Principle The infra-red (IR) sensor is a transducer for the measurement of the concentration of hydrocarbons in the atmosphere, by the absorption of infra-red radiation. The vapour to be monitored reaches the measuring chamber by diffusion or by means of a pump. Infra-red light radiation from the light source shines through a window into the chamber, is reflected and focused by the spherical mirror, and then passes through another window and hits the beam splitter. The portion of the radiation that passes through the beam splitter passes through a broadband interference filter (measuring filter) into the housing cover of the measuring detector, and is converted into an electric signal. The portion of the radiation reflected by the beam splitter passes through the reference filter to reach the reference detector. If the gas mixture in the chamber contains hydrocarbons, a part of the radiation is absorbed in the wavelength range of the measurement filter, and a reduced electric signal is given. At the same time, the signal of the reference detector remains unchanged. Gas concentration is determined by comparing the relative values of the reference detector and the measuring detector. Differences in the output of the IR light source, dirt on mirrors and windows as well as dust of aerosols contained in the air have an identical effect on both detectors and are therefore compensated. _ Oxygen (using an electrochemical sensor). Analysers of this type determine the oxygen content of a gas mixture by measuring the output of an electrochemical cell. In one commonly used analyser, oxygen diffuses through a membrane into the cell, causing current to flow between two special electrodes separated by a liquid or gel electrolyte. The current flow is related to the oxygen concentration in the sample and the scale is arranged to give a direct indication of oxygen content. The cell may be housed in a separate sensor head connected by cable to the read out unit. The analyser readings are directly proportional to the pressure in the measuring cell, but only small errors are caused by normal variations in atmospheric pressure. Certain gases may affect the sensor and give rise to false readings. Sulphur dioxide and oxides of nitrogen interfere if they are present in concentrations of more than 0.25% by volume. Mercaptans and hydrogen sulphide can poison the sensor if their levels are greater than 1% by volume. This poisoning does not occur immediately but over a period of time; a poisoned sensor drifts and cannot be calibrated in air. In such cases, reference should be made to the manufacturer’s instructions.

_ Hydrogen Sulphide (using an electrochemical sensor). Electrochemical sensors are based on the fact that cells can be constructed that react with the measured gas and generate an electric current. This current can be measured and the amount of gas determined. The sensors are low cost and are small enough to allow several to be incorporated into the same instrument, making them suitable for use in multi-gas detectors. There are numerous electrochemical sensors available covering a number of gases which may be present in the shipboard environment, such as ammonia, hydrogen sulphide, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide and sulphur dioxide. Electrochemical sensors can be used in stand-alone instruments, which may provide a warning at a predetermined concentration of vapour, or they can be fitted in a multi-sensor instrument to provide a reading of the concentration of the vapour, usually in parts per million (ppm). These sensors may give erroneous readings due to cross-sensitivity. This occurs, for example, when measuring toxic gases with hydrocarbon gases present, for example H2S in the presence of nitric oxide and sulphurdioxide. Multi-gas instruments should be tested at regular intervals in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions. Multi-gas instruments may be supplied for gas measurement use and be fitted with a data logging capability, but without an alarm function.
