1 About this document

1.1 Aim / Scope

This document provides information to gas industry / process instrumentation pro-

fessionals about the Honeywell ® GasLab Q2, real-time natural gas analyzers from

the enCore series of instruments, hereafter referred to as Q2 for short.

The instruments determine calorific value, Wobbe index and other parameters in

natural gas and are designed for operation in many hazardous areas. GasLab Q2

covers a wide operating temperature range, allowing the analyzer to be placed close

to the process to obtain a short response time.

Common applications include gas turbine control and regulation, fiscal energy

measurement, and gas mixture analysis. For this purpose, the Q2 uses the enSuite

configuration and analysis software. (Details on the software in section

➪8 Configuration and analysis software enSuite (p.171)

The manual explains the basic measuring instrument functions and describes

installation, commissioning, operation, use and maintenance.

In addition to the general technical knowledge, this document enables safe and ef-

ficient handling of the Q2 .

For this purpose, you must have a good command of the documentation language,

or use another translation of this document. The safety instructions and warnings

on the instrument are in English or French.

Depending on the field of activity, different basic knowledge is as-

sumed. Notes on this can be found in the relevant sections. Defin-

itions used in this document can be found in the glossary.

Compliance with all the safety information and instructions set out in this

information is a requirement for safe working practice and correct handling of the

device and for correct measurement and calculation results.

Furthermore, the directives, standards, local accident prevention regulations and

general safety regulations which apply to the field of application of the device, must

2.1 Intended use

//Cette page est répétée en français. // This page is repeated in French. //

The intended use of this instrument is the gas analysis of natural gas or natural

gas-like gas (all components gaseous). For this purpose, all information on the

measuring device, its data sheet and in this manual must be observed, as well as

the information on installation and maintenance. Handling the equipment requires

the personnel to be able to recognize hazards and risks as well as to assess their

own work. Particular attention must be paid to:

lInstallation only allowed in measuring systems where access control is guar-

anteed, i.e. where protective measures are taken to prevent unauthorized per-

sons from gaining physical access to the device. Radio interference is possible

(device is class A equipment). It may be required, to carry out appropriate in-

terference suppression measures.

lIt must be ensured, e.g. by means of high-pressure reductions and safety

devices, that maximum permissible device pressures are not exceeded in the

installation, even in the event of a fault. The device and any connected vent

line must always be in a safe condition. Inspection and maintenance work

must be carried out properly.

lIt must be ensured that no hazards like electric shock, earth potential shift or

lightning strikes exist or can arise, for example by means of an appropriate

electrical installation and lightning conductor.

Deviations from these specifications and the following information in this manual

are considered misuse.

DANGER / WARNING OFMISUSE

Dangerous situations can arise!

Gas can escape and cause consequential damage.

The device protection can be impaired in the event of misuse - only use

the device for its intended purpose in accordance with safety- and ex-

plosion-protection-rules !

The list of suitable gases and calibration gases can be found in the

technical data and in the data sheet of the device. ➪11.3 List of suit-

able gases and calibration gases (p.288). For other gases, be sure to

contact Honeywell before use.

Des interférences radio sont possibles (l'appareil est un équipement de classe

A). Il peut être nécessaire de prendre des mesures appropriées de suppression

des interférences.

lIl faut s'assurer, par exemple au moyen de réductions de haute pression et de

dispositifs de sécurité, que les pressions maximales admissibles de l'appareil

ne sont pas dépassées dans l'installation, même en cas de défaut. L'appareil et

la conduite d'évacuation éventuellement raccordée doivent toujours être dans

un état sûr. Les travaux d'inspection et de maintenance doivent être effectués

correctement.

lIl faut s'assurer qu'aucun danger tel qu'un choc électrique, un déplacement du

potentiel de terre ou un coup de foudre n'existe ou ne peut survenir, par ex-

emple au moyen d'une installation électrique et d'un paratonnerre appropriés.

Tout écart par rapport à ces spécifications et aux informations suivantes de ce

manuel est considéré comme une mauvaise utilisation.

DANGER / AVERTISSEMENT D'UNE MAUVAISE UTILISATION
