BIOGAS 5000

INTRODUCTION

This manual explains how to use the BIOGAS 5000 portable gas analyser. The BIOGAS 5000 is easy to use,

calibrate and configure and enables consistent collection of data for improved analysis and accurate reporting,

whilst helping to check the digester process is running efficiently.

Safety instructions

The 5000 series of gas analysers can be used for measuring gases from landfill sites and other

sources as described in this manual.

The operator may be exposed to harmful gases during the use of the instrument. Inhaling these

gases may be harmful to health and in some cases may be fatal.

It is the responsibility of the user to ensure that he/she is adequately trained in the safety aspects of

the gases being used and appropriate procedures are followed. In particular, where hazardous

gases are being used the gas exhausted from the analyser must be piped to an area where it is safe

to discharge the gas.

Hazardous gas can also be expelled from the instrument when purging with clean air.

The instrument has been designed to be used in explosive atmospheres as defined by the

classification. The instrument can be configured to measure low levels of several gases, but may not

be certified for use in potentially explosive atmospheres of these gases. It is the responsibility of the

operator to determine the protection concept and classification of equipment required for a

particular application and whether these gases create a potentially explosive atmosphere.

Note: Gas analysers are a sensitive piece of scientific equipment, and should be treated as such. If the

equipment is used in a manner not specified by the manufacturer, the protection provided by the

instrument may be impaired.

For ATEX and IECEx the 5000 series of gas analysers are certified to Hazardous Area Classification

II 2G Ex ib IIA T1 Gb (Ta = -10ºC to +50ºC)

It is vital instructions are followed closely. It is the responsibility of the operator to determine the protection

concept and classification required for a particular application.

(Reference European ATEX directive 2014/34/EU)

The following instructions apply to equipment covered by certificate numbers SIRA 11ATEX2197X and IECEx SIR

11.0089X:

 The equipment may be used with flammable gases and vapours with apparatus group IIA and

temperature class T1.

 The equipment can contain gas sensing heads for the detection of particular gases. The inclusion of a

Page 17 of 119

Operating Manual

www.geotechuk.com OMBG5KN Iss.08

BIOGAS 5000

sensor does not infer that the equipment is suitable for the use of gases with a temperature class of less

than T1.

 The equipment is only certified for use in ambient temperatures in the range -10ºC to +50ºC and should

not be used outside this range.

 The equipment must not be used in an atmosphere of greater than 21% oxygen.

 Repair of this equipment shall be carried out in accordance with the applicable code of practice.

 When used in a hazardous area only use GF5.2 temperature probe (SIRA 11ATEX2197X and IECEx

SIR11.0089X). For connector C, the GF5.4 anemometer (BVS 04ATEXE194) for use with ATEX only. The

analyser should not be connected to any other devices in the hazardous area including the GF-USB lead

(connector A) or GF3.9 battery charger (connector B) supplied with the analyser.

Do not charge, recharge or open in a potentially explosive atmosphere.

In hazardous area only use “Temperature Probe GF5.2” in Connector B.

Connector C (Uo=10V,lo=5mA,Po=50mW,Ci=0,Li=0,Co=100uF,Lo=1000mH),

Connector B (Uo=5V,lo=6mA,Po=7mW,Ci=0,Li=0,Co=100uF,Lo=1000mH)

MAXIMUM NON-HAZARDOUS SUPPLIES:

Connector A - Um=6V Connector B - Um=10.1V

 The safe area apparatus that is to be connected to the USB Port shall be a Safety Extra Low Voltage

(SELV) or Protective Extra Low Voltage (PELV) circuit.

 Only a QED Environmental Systems Limited battery pack part number 20087 or 2011113 is permitted as a

replacement. This battery pack shall only be changed in a safe area by QED personnel or authorised

distributors.

 Only Battery Charger type GF3.9 shall be used to recharge the batteries via Connector ‘B’.

 If the equipment is likely to come into contact with aggressive substances, e.g. acidic liquids or gases that

may attack metals, or solvents that may affect polymeric materials, then it is the responsibility of the user

to take suitable precautions, e.g. regular checks as part of routine inspections or establishing from the

material’s data sheet that it is resistant to specific chemicals that prevent it from being adversely

affected, thus ensuring that the type of protection is not compromised.

 The relative pressure range is +/-250 mbar. Note, however, that the input pressure should not exceed +/-

250 mbar relative to atmospheric pressure and the output pressure should not exceed +/- 100 mbar

relative to atmospheric pressure.

MCERTS

MCERTS is the UK Environment Agency's Monitoring Certification Scheme. The scheme provides a framework

within which environmental measurements can be made in accordance with the Agency's quality requirements.

The scheme covers a range of monitoring, sampling and inspection activities.

Note:

MCERTS

-

Cross sensitivity tests using hydrogen sulphide were not

c

arried out on this instrument,

therefore, users should be aware if H2S is present on sites, as there may be an interferential effect.

MCERTS promotes public confidence in monitoring data and provides industry with a proven framework for

choosing monitoring systems and services that meet the Environment Agency's performance requirements.

The Environment Agency has established its Monitoring Certification Scheme (MCERTS) to deliver quality

environmental measurements. The MCERTS product certification scheme provides for the certification of

products according to Environment Agency performance standards, based on relevant CEN, ISO and national

standards.

MCERTS certified instruments have been tested by an independent body to ensure that they meet certain

performance requirements. In addition, the manufacturer of an MCERTS product is regularly audited to ensure

that the performance requirements of the certification are being continually met.

The 5000 series of gas analysers have been certified to Version 3.1 of the ‘Performance Standards for Portable

Emission Monitoring Systems’.

CIRIA

The CIRIA guideline ‘Assessing the risks posed by hazardous ground gases to buildings’ proposes that gas

concentrations and flow rates should be monitored.

As an example methodology, they suggest using a gas analyser to first measure flow and pressure and then

afterwards to measure gas concentration.

The logging profile option offers frequency of data to be collected within a timed period which, in return,

identifies a gas profile of the sample point being monitored, information about whether the sample point is

performing correctly, when the peaks occur and whether air is drawn in after a certain period. This logging

option is available on firmware software version 1.6.5

Versions of the GA5000 analyser range with internal flow on firmware version 1.6.5 and above have the ability to

take measurements according to the CIRIA guidelines, while still allowing other users to take the measurements

as before.

Radio Transmitting Devices

The BIOGAS 5000 may contain a Bluetooth module for the transmission of data wirelessly. The specification for

the Bluetooth module is as follows:

Transmit Frequency

2402 to 2480MHz

Output Power

+6dBm (4mW)

In addition, the gas analyser complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two

conditions:

1) This device may not cause harmful interference.

2) This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired

operation.
