Restrictions for use
Alcalizing
Reagent
Please correct the pH of the sample only with Diisopropylamine,

p.a. However, Diisopropylamine is not included in delivery. Please
buy it from your local supplier: E.g. VWR Merck (6x 1l: 803646),
Fluka (1x 1l: 38300) or Riedel-de Haen (1x 1l: 62580).
Sample
Requirements
No sand (or other polishing material) or oil are allowed in the

sample.
The instrument is specified for a max. pressure of 2 bar (28 psi). If
the sample pressure exceeds 2 bar, please mount a pressure
reduction in front of the instrument inlet.
Phosphates may interfere with the hydrazine measurement.
The pH value of the sample must be equal or higher than pH 7.
Flow
Interruption
High concentrations of Diisopropylamine reagent may attack the

acrylic material of the flow cell. This can cause cracks and render
the flow cell completely unusable. This will not happen during
normal operation. However, if the sample flow is stopped, undiluted
diisoproylamine will diffuse through the diffusion tube and can
cause damage. Therefore, the following rules should be observed if
the sample flow is stopped for more than one day:
Remove diisopropylamine bottle and close it. Keep it in a
safe place for further use.
Note: Diisopropylamine is highly inflammable and toxic.
Wear googles and protective clothing! Do not breathe
vapours! Avoid contact with skin!
Read the safety data sheet carefully before use
Screw an empty reagent bottle on the holder.
Let the sample flow for another 30 minutes to rinse out the
Diisopropylamine dissolved in the diffusion tubing material.
Stop sample flow.

AMI Hydrazine
Product Description

Product Description
2.1
Description of the system
Application
Hydrazine is used in power plants as an oxygen scavenger. It helps

to remove oxygen, which may cause corrosion in the power plant.
The reaction of hydrazine with oxygen produces nitrogen and
water.
Measuring
principle
3-electrode amperometry:
The sensor consists of two platinum electrodes and a reference
electrode. A voltage is applied to the platinum electrodes and kept
on a optimum level by the reference electrode. The hydrazine in the
sample generates a small current on the platine pin electrode,
which is proportional to the hydrazine concentration.
For an optimal sensitivity and stability, a rotor continuously cleans
the surfaces of the platinum electrodes (hydrodynamic cleaning).
The flow sensor measures the rotations of the rotor to detect
sufficient flow.
The signal of amperometric systems depends on flow. The constant
head guarantees a constant flow if the sample always overflows
into the longer constant head tube.
Temperature compensation is done automatically.
On-line
operation
The measurement of hydrazine requires a high pH of the sample.

The AMI Hydrazine buffers the pH to pH>10.5 by adding
diisopropylamine. The diisopropylamine is dissolved in the water
while flowing through a diffusion tube.
The sample enters at the sample inlet, passes the filter and the
needle valve, where sample flow is adjusted and flows through the
diffusion tube in the diisopropylamine bottle, picking up
diisopropylamine and reaching pH>10.5. Afterwards, the sample
fills the constant head. Sample must always overflow into the
longer constant head tube (waste) to ensure constant flow and
pressure at the hydrazine sensor.
A-96.250.501 / 070606
AMI Hydrazine
Product Description
A large part of the sample flows into the shorter overflow tube to
the hydrazine sensor, turns on the rotor and leaves it into waste.
A small part of the sample leaves thje instrument by the longer
constant head tube.
The rotation of the rotor is monitored with a flow detector to assure
sufficient sample flow. An inconsistent sample flow causes the rotor
to turn slowly (or stop) and produces a system error.

Instrument Setup
4.
Instrument Setup
After the analyzer is installed according to the previous instructions,
connect the power cord. Do not switch on power, yet!
Before
Starting
Sample Flow
Ensure the grab sample valve is closed.

Ensure the sample outlet is pressure-free.
Open Sample
Flow
Open the flow regulating valve to allow sample flow into the
constant head and into the waste. Sample must always overflow
into the longer constant head tube
Watch the rotor of the Hydrazine sensor. As soon as it starts
turning, switch on power.
First, the analyzer performs a self test, displays the firmware
version and then starts normal operation.
Programming
Program all parameters for external devices (interface, etc.). Set all
parameters for instrument operation (limits, alarms).
Run-in Period
Let the instrument run-in for approximately 30 min continuous

operation (flow on, power on). The Diisopropylamine needs roughly
30 min to penetrate the walls of new diffusion tubes.
Correction of
Hydrazine
Sensor
If necessary, correct the instrument after at least 30 min running-in.

A calibration (zero and slope) is NOT necessary.
To correct the instrument the concentration of hydrazine in the
sample has to be known. Hydrazine reacts with
dimethylaminobenzaldehyde in an acid solution and forms a yellow
colour. The colour intensity can be measured by a photometer.
Refer to an appropriate standard method (e.g. DIN 38413).
The manual sample must be taken from the grab sample outlet of
the flow cell. Let the sample flow out for roughly 1 minute before
grabbing the sample for the manual analysis.
Do not calibrate.

Process
Calibration
Grab Sample
Hydrazine reacts with dimethylaminobenzaldehyde in an acid

solution and forms a yellow colour. The colour intensity is
proportional to the concentration and can be determined by a
photometer. Refer to an appropriate standard method.
The adjustment of the slope is called correction. The zero remains
unchanged. A calibration (changing slope and zero) is not
necessary. The zero point is very stable and no change is
necessary.
Hydrazine Sensor
The sample must always overflow into the longer overflow tube of
the constant head. Only perform process calibration if the
difference is significant.
Grab sample directly on the flow cell (grab sample valve and tap).
Open the grab sample valve and let the water flow out for a minute
before taking the sample.
Note the displayed value of the AMI Hydrazine while taking the grab
sample. The reading has to be stable .
Determine the hydrazine concentration of the sample by manual
analysis.
Compare the result to the reading of the AMI.
If the reading of the AMI has changed while performing the manual
analysis, enter the difference between the reading of the AMI.
For example:
Displayed measurement value at AMI during grab sample: 10 ppb
Displayed measurement value at AMI after concentration
determination: 15 ppb.
Determined hydrazine concentration: 8 ppb
There is a change of the measurement value of 50% during the
concentration determination. This means, you have to correct the
determined hydrazine concentration also with a factor of 50%.
This will result in a value of 8ppm+ (50% of 8 ppb) = 12ppb
Finally, you have to enter 12ppb as a process value at the AMI
transmitter

Introduction
The AMI family of transmitters provides a common base for a
number of analytical instruments with application specific sensor
interfaces. Each instrument has a basic structure with identical
functionality.
AMI instruments can (optionally) be equipped with a PROFIBUS
DP-V1 interface. The interface supports the PROFIBUS-PA Profile
3.0. This part of the manual describes the functionality of the
interface and the integration of the AMI family of transmitters into
an automation system.
Hardware
Wiring, bus terminals and connectors are not part of this manual. It
should, however, be noted that the observation of the
corresponding standards is of paramount importance to proper
operation. Setting the transmission rate to reasonable values will
help avoid communication errors.
GSD file for

AMI
Hydrazine
The PROFIBUS system requires a description of the device

parameters, e. g. output data, input data, data format, data volume
and supported transmission rate, so that it can integrate the field
devices into the bus system. These data are contained in a
Device Master File (GSD file) which is placed at the disposal of
the PROFIBUS master while communication system is
being commissioned.
Device bitmaps can also be integrated. These appear as icons in
the network tree.
The manufacturer-specific GSD file SW17C6.gsd is available for
download from http://www.swan.ch

Customizing the Cyclic Data Telegram

You can customize the cyclic telegram to better meet the
requirements of a process. The tables above represent the
maximum contents of the cyclic data telegram. If you do not want to
use all the cyclic data of AMI Hydrazine, you can use the device
configuration (Chk_Cfg) to eliminate individual data blocks from the
cyclic telegram via the PLC software. Shortening the telegram
improves the data throughput rate of a PROFIBUS system. You
should only keep those blocks active which you process further in
the system. You can do this by means of a "negative" selection in
the configuration tool.
To achieve the correct structure of the cyclic data telegram, the
PROFIBUS master must send the identification FREE_PLACE
(00h) for the non-active blocks.

Each measured value has the same format: one four-byte (32-bit)
floating-point value in IEEE 754 Short Real Number format and a
status code byte referring to the measured value. There are four
quality states, 16 sub-status values (not all defined) for each quality
state, and four limit states for the measured value indicated in its
associated status byte (See Figures 2 ,3, 4 and 5).

Configuration
B.5.1
Device Master Files (GSD)

The device is ready for system integration once commissioning has
been effected via the local display or the Class 2 master. The
PROFIBUS system requires a description of the device
parameters, e.g. output data, input data, data format, data volume
and supported transmission rate, so that it can integrate the field
devices into the bus system. These data are contained in a Device
Master File (GSD file) which is placed at the disposal of the
PROFIBUS master while the communication system is being
commissioned. Device bitmaps can also be integrated. These
appear as icons in the network tree.
The Profile 3.0 Device Master File (GSD) allows field devices from
various manufacturers to be exchanged without having to
reconfigure.
B.5.2
GSD File Types

Prior to configuration, decide which GSD you want to use to
operate the system.
You can change the setting by means of a Class 2 master (under
Physical Block-Parameter Ident_Number_Selector).
The following two Device Master Files with different functionalities
are available:
Manufacturer-specific GSD with Profile 3.0 functionality
(default setting):
This GSD guarantees the unlimited functionality of the field
device. Device-specific process parameters and functions are
therefore available.
Profile GSD's:
If a system is configured with profile GSD's, it is possible to
exchange devices that are supplied by various manufacturers. It
is, however, essential that the cyclic process values follow the
same sequence. The transmitter supports the profiles Analyzer
and Multivariable (IEC 61158-2). These GSD's comprise Analog
Input blocks (AI).

Acyclic Data Communication

The AMI Series of analytical instruments is available for a wide
range of parameters. Instrument configuration depends on
connected sensors and application. Therefore, configuration must
be performed by trained personnel with a background in
analytical methods.
It should be noted that there is a clear distinction between
instruments that are configured and calibrated in an application
(flow, level, pressure) and instruments that are calibrated with a
known standard (pH, chlorine). AMI instruments are of the
second type.
To ensure reliability and consistency of the measurement, remote
configuration has not been enabled at this time.

Introduction
The AMI Hydrazine is a Microprocessor controlled electronic
transmitter & controller for the conductivity measurement in power
cycles. It can be operated as an intelligent Slave device on the
Modbus/JBUS using twisted pair RS485 lines.
Modbus/Jbus
The Modbus / Jbus Protocol communicates using a master-slave

technique, in which only one device (the master) can initiate
transactions (queries). The other devices (the slaves) respond by
supplying the requested data to the master, or by taking the action
requested in the query. Typical master devices include host
processors, PLCs etc. Typical slaves can be PLCs or intelligent
transmitter/controller like the AMI family of the instruments.
The Query
The function code in the query tells the addressed slave device
what kind of action to perform. The data bytes contain any
additional information the slave will need to function. For example,
function code 03 will query the slave to read holding registers and
respond with their contents. The data field must contain the
information telling the slave which register to start at and how many
registers to read.
The
Response
If the slave makes a normal response, the function code in the

response is an echo of the function code in the query.
The data bytes contain the data collected by the slave.
Serial
Transmission
Modes
Modbus supports two transmission modes: ASCII or RTU.

The AMI Instruments support Modbus RTU (Remote Terminal Unit)
mode only.
RTU Mode
In RTU mode, each 8-bit byte in a message contains two 4-bit

hexadecimal characters. The main advantage of this mode is that
its greater character density allows better data throughput than
ASCII for the same baud rate. Each message must be transmitted
in a continuous stream. Users select the desired serial port
communication parameters (baud rate, parity mode, etc). The serial
parameters must be the same for all devices on a Modbus network.

Data Addresses in Modbus Messages
All data addresses in Modbus Messages are referenced to zero.
The first occurrence of a data item is addressed as item number
zero. For example:
Holding Register 40001 is addressed as register 0000 in the
data address field of the message. The function code field
already specifies a holding register operation. Therefore the 4x
reference is implicit.
Modbus Function Codes
The list below shows the function codes supported by the AMI
Instruments. Codes are listed in decimal. Function codes not
supported return an exception response 02 to the master.

Discrete Inputs
Alarm &Status bits are packed as one input per bit of the data field.
Definition: big-endian and little-endian
Big-endian and little-endian are terms that describe the order in
which a sequence of bytes are stored in computer memory. Bigendian is an order in which the "big end" (most significant value in
the sequence) is stored first (at the lowest storage address). Littleendian is an order in which the "little end" (least significant value in
the sequence) is stored first. For example, in a big-endian
computer, the two bytes required for the hexadecimal number 4F52
would be stored as 4F52 in storage. In a little-endian system, it
would be stored as 524F.
Attention: big-endian format is used !!!

As control output:
Signal outputs can be used for driving control units.
We distinguish different kinds of controls:
P-controller:
The controller action is proportional to the deviation from the
setpoint. The controller is characterized by the P-Band. In the
steady-state, the setpoint will never be reached. The deviation is
called steady-state error.
Parameters: Setpoint, P-Band
PI-controller:
The combination of a P-controller with an I-controller will minimize
the steady-state error. If the reset time is set to zero, the I-controller
is switched off.
Parameters: Setpoint, P-Band, Reset time
PD-controller:
The combination of a P-controller with a D-controller will minimize
the response time to a fast change of the process value. If the
derivative time is set to zero, the D-controller is switched off.
Parameters: Setpoint, P-Band, Derivative time.
PID-controller:
The combination of a P-, an I- and a D-controller allows a proper
control of the process.
Parameters: Setpoint, P-Band, Reset time, Derivative time

Range: depends on chosen parameter
5.2.X.43.3
Reset time: The reset time is the time till the step response of a
single I-controller will reach the same value as it will be suddenly
reached by a P-controller.
Range: 0-9000 sec.
5.2.X.43.4
Derivative time: The derivative time is the time till the ramp
response of a single P-controller will reach the same value as it will
be suddenly reached by a D-controller.
Range: 0 - 9000 sec.
5.2.X.43.5
Control timeout: If a controller action (dosing intensity) is constantly

over 90% during a defined period of time and the process value
does not come closer to the setpoint, the dosing process will be
stopped for safety reasons. Range: 0 - 720 min.
