There are many sensors we choose for this assignment.

Some sensors have a total


issue, there is some troubleshooting method. First sensor is thermocouple, when the
thermocouple junction is heated; a small voltage is generated along the wire in the
temperature gradient. This small voltage is determined from the makeup of the
metals used in the junction. There is some information to help to overcome the
thermocouple. Firstly, when the thermocouple use of a period of prolonged and
persistent and unnoticed temperatures gradually is decelerated or inhomogeneous
that can affect the outcome of the process. Deceleration occur when wires can be
chemically attacked, which led to what the wire composition, mechanical properties
of materials and finally the temperature readings. If the thermocouple defective best
way to judge is to place the thermocouples used new or known good thermocouple
adjacent to a suspect to compare and reading documents between both. By
subjecting the inhomogeneous thermocouple other suspects set to test temperature
gradient, can cause output different temperatures that will not help in a specific area
of use. Secondly, always check to make sure that the thermocouple is in question is
the resistance, the force calibration and for the same type of equipment used. For
example; type J thermocouple calibration cannot be used in special applications
called K type thermocouple. If need a J-type equipment, should replace type A.

Other than that, Always be careful about checking the thermocouple to find any pin
holes, cracks and areas of discoloration that show internal damage. Light green
color, on a type K thermocouple indicates the occurrence of aging and changes in
the chemical composition of which is known as Green rot. The orange color of Iron
Oxide in J and K type indicates the indoor humidity leaks. Wiring also needs to be
checked, because the contamination on the surface of the wire can greatly reduce
the accuracy of the temperature. Lastly, its installation must be emphasized if
overlooked will affect the readings obtained. This is causing disruption in connectors
Crimp, Solder, Wire Insulation, or materials not properly used for the connection. In
addition, any substance that is added to the connector will affect the reading
because of the added material is always influenced by the ambient temperature.
For the second sensor is Capacitance Manometer, first trouble for this sensor is
Inadequate warm-up time is not enough, as shown by the output pressure signal drift
or zero adjustment. If the warm-up time is not enough, this will not cause the internal
components to achieve thermal equilibrium and the reading will drift. It was time to
warm up in Table 1

Non-Temperature Regulated, all Ranges 15 minutes

Temperature Regulated, 1 Torr & Above 4 hours

Temperature Regulated, Below 1 Torr 8 hours


TABLE 1: Warm Up Time

For the third sensor is Mass Spectrometry, the trouble is Base pressure increase.
This is because high vacuum pumps off when the system are running. To avoid this
problem happens, check ion gauge trip and Check cooling water flow in mass
spectrometry. The required rate of filament burnt out filament sagging shorts and
System power supply failure during run. Check the air filter is clogged, the formation
of scale in tube water to circumvention problems will occur. Other than that, virtual
Leak. Virtual leak is divided into two parts, gaskets and seals Reseat last changed
and Bake out the system. Reseat the gasket, the gasket must be right and fit with
seal Bake out the system. Reseat the gasket, the gasket must be right and fit with
seal. Last sensor, Pyrometer. There are 3 basic troubleshooting steps that apply to
most all pyrometer applications. If have seen a difference in temperature reading
from pyrometers, it is best to first check these 3 things to see if that resolves the
issue. Better yet, if these three steps can be incorporated into maintenance routines,
you can extend the performance life and accuracy of your pyrometer. This is a
problem with the sensor Check that the pyrometer is not too hot. As with any
electronic device, the pyrometer cannot operate properly over a certain temperature
limit. To suggest sensor operates below 140 F / 60 C ambient temperature limit is
exceeded, the measuring circuit boards in the fire that started acting funny.
Pyrometers exposed to ambient temperatures exceeding these limits will start to drift
out of calibration and can lead to errors in temperature readings. Pyrometers store at
a cool temperature pyrometer can extend the life and reduce the distance between
the alignments.
Pyrometers including track temperature pyrometer that shows if it has been exposed
to high ambient temperatures. We usually recommend that if the ambient
temperature exceeds 120 F / 50 C, then active cooling should be used for
measuring heat camera style, or consider using fibre optic pyrometer (400 F / 200
C ambient limit). Other trouble is Make Sure the Pyrometer Lens is Clean. Just like
eyeglasses, fuel gauge that works well when the lens is clean. Dirty lens glasses will
comment on the top left blurry or fuzzy. Similarly Also, Lens pyrometer dirty in single
wavelength will lead to multiple fuzzy room temperature readings. A dirty lens block
infrared energy from pyrometer to pyrometer and Will Lead To The measured
temperature is lower. For the Right Temperature readings, it is important to inspect
and clean the lens pyrometer IF there is any dirt built in Lens crud. Similarly, if you
look at Goal through Window, Be sure your windows are clean because this would
have the same effect as a dirty lens. Lens cleaning pyrometer is quite simple: take a
piece of soft cloth or Q-tip and wipe clean using any alcohol-based cleaners. An
Easy Way to Help Prevent contamination USING lens is connected to the Air Purge
the air supply clean.
Last trouble is verify the alignment of the pyrometer, While it may be an easy step to
overlook, it is always important to verify that the pyrometer is aimed at target.
Pyrometers can be accidently bumped, moved, misaligned, or reinstalled improperly
so it is always a good practice to verify alignment. A pyrometer is an optical device
so it only can see what is in its field of view. If can see a physical obstruction
between the pyrometer and the target, you can be sure that the pyrometer will see
that too if it is in its field of view. For single-wavelength sensors, alignment is critical
as the pyrometer takes an average temperature of whatever it sees in its field of
view. Therefore a single-wavelength pyrometer needs a full field of view of the target
to make an accurate measurement, so as not to average in other non-target
temperatures. A dual-wavelength pyrometer can tolerate a partially filled field of view
so dual-wavelength pyrometers are ideal for smaller or wandering targets as they
can better tolerate misalignment.
