1.3.1 Danger from Electrical Equipment
The FW100 measuring system is an item of electrical equipment designed for use in
industrial power installations. When working on power connections or on live components,
make sure that the power supply is switched off. If necessary, replace shock protection
measures before reconnecting the power supply.
1.3.2 Danger Due to Hot, Corrosive, or Pressurized Gases
The transmitter/receiver unit is mounted directly on the gas-carrying duct. In installations
with a low hazard potential (no risk of injury, ambient pressure, low temperatures, no risk of
explosion), this unit can be installed and removed while the installation is in operation,
provided that the applicable specifications and safety regulations for the installation are
adhered to and all necessary and suitable protective measures are taken.
DANGER
Warning
Installations with toxic gases, high temperatures, high pressure, or risk of explosion must be
shutdown before these components are installed or removed!
1.3.3 Danger Due to Laser Beam
WARNING
The FW100 uses a laser with laser class 2. To prevent blinding:
‡ Never look directly into the laser beam.
‡ Do not direct the FW100 laser beam towards people.
‡ Take into account reflections of the laser beam.
1.3.4 Purge-Air Failure
The purge-air supply protects the transmitter/receiver unit fitted in the duct against hot or
corrosive gases. It must remain switched on when the plant is shut down. A purge-air supply
failure can quickly destroy the transmitter/receiver unit. For this reason, the operator must
ensure that:
ATTENTION
‡ The purge-air supply operates reliably and without interruption.
‡ A failure is detected immediately (for example, by using pressure monitors).
‡ The transmitter/receiver unit is removed from the duct in the event of a purge-air failure
and the duct openings are covered (for example, with a flange cover).

2.2 Operating Principle
2.2.1 Operating Principle
The FW100 operates according to the scattered light measurement principle (forward
scattering). Since it is extremely sensitive, this principle is particularly suitable for measuring
very small particle concentrations.
A laser diode directs a beam of modulated light in the visible range (wavelength approx.
650 nm) at the dust particles in the gas flow. The light scattered by the particles is recorded
by a highly sensitive detector which is positioned in an angle of approx. 15 ° to the beam
axis. The received signal is electrically amplified and supplied to the measuring channel of a
microprocessor as the central part of the measuring, control and evaluation electronics. The
point of intersection between the transmitted beam and the receiver aperture defines the
measuring volume in the gas duct.
The transmitting power of the laser diode is continuously controlled by measuring a part of
the transmitted intensity with a microchip in the laser diode. This received signal is also
amplified and supplied to the monitor channel of the microprocessor. In this way lowest
brightness changes of the transmitted laser beam can be detected and take into account
in the determination of the output signal.
Fig. 2.1: FW100 Operating principle
The measured scattered light intensity is proportional to the dust concentration. Since the
scattered light intensity doesn't only depend on the particle number (dust content) but also
on the visual qualities of the particles, the FW100 must be calibrated with a gravimetric
comparison measurement to secure an exact measuring of the dust concentration. The
calibration coefficients determined at this measurement are entered in FW100 (see
Section. 4.4.2) in the form:
cc2: square
cc1: linear
cc0: absolute
c = cc2 · SI² + cc1 · SI + cc0 c = Dust concentration
SI = Scattered light intensity
cc = calibration coefficiant
The manufacturer settings are cc2 = 0, cc1 = 1, cc0 = 0.

2.2.2 Response Time
The response time (t90) is the time taken by the FW100 to reach 90% of the end value after
a sudden change in the measured value (see Fig. 2.2). The t90 time can be set to any value
between 0.1 and 600 s. Setting a higher t90 time provides better attenuation of transient
fluctuations in the measured value and malfunctions to produce a "smoother" output signal.
Fig. 2.2: Response time
2.2.3 Check Cycle
The check cycle is used for automatically checking that the transmitter/receiver is
functioning properly. The check cycle can be triggered automatically at fixed intervals
(setting in MEPA-FW, see Section 4.4.1) and/or manually (1 min after the power supply has
been connected, or the system has been switched from "Maintenance" to "Measure" in
MEPA-FW).
The check values can be given out at the analog output (see Section 4.4.1).
Notes • When the check values are being determined, the value last measured is given out at the
analog output.
• If the check values are not given out at the analog output, the current measured value is
given out once the check value has been determined.
• The "Maintenance" relay is activated to signal that a check cycle is in process.
• With the LCD option, a check cycle is indicated with a plain-text "check cycle" display and
as a status output at relay 6.
• Automatic check cycles are carried out periodically from the parameterized time interval.
A re-start begins if the interval setting is changed or 1 min after:
– Change from „Maintenance“ to „Measure“ mode
– Reset (power off/on)
– Switch-on of the power voltage after power failure.

Product Description

Check cycle FW101
If a check cyle is carried out, inadmissible deviations appearing by the normal behavior are
signaled as a malfunction. If a malfunction is present, you can trigger a check cycle manually
to locate the cause of the problem (see Chapter 6).
The check cycle lasts approx. 310 s and comprises:
The values are only given
out to the analog output in
case of activation (see
Section 4.4.1).
• 40 s contamination measurement of the optical boundary surfaces, zero and check value
• 90 s output of the contamination value
• 90 s output of the check value
• 90 s output of the zero value.
Fig. 2.3: FW101 check cycle output on plotter
Contamination Measurement
In order to measure the contamination on the optical boundary surfaces, the FW101 moves
the receiver optics mechanically to a reference position. As a result, the optics measure the
light emitted by the laser diode directly. The intensity value measured during the movement
is compared with the factory settings to calculate a correction factor. In this way, the FW101
can fully compensate for any contamination levels.
If the contamination value is lower than 70 %, a analog value is given out during the check
cycle in a range between Live Zero and 20 mA and proportional to the contamination value
(device status „Operation“). For contamination values higher than 70 % always Live Zero is
given out (device status „Malfunction“).
Fig. 2.4: FW101 contamination and check value measurement
Check Value Measurement
(Span test)
Following to the contamination measurement, the check value is determined (receiver
optics is in reference position). Once a reference measurement has been carried out with a
light intensity of 100 %, the FW101 reduces the intensity of the laser diode to 70 % and
compares the value measured by the receiver with the expected value. If these two value
deviate more than ±2 %, the device generates an error signal. The error message is lifted
again if the next check cycle passes successfully.

Zero Value Measurement
In order to monitor the zero point, the FW101 deactivates the laser diode, and the reception
signal must also be zero. In this way, drifts or zero-point eviations in the entire system (e.g.
caused by an electronic defect) can be reliably detected. If the “zero-value” deviation is out-
side the specified range, an error signal is generated.
Check cycle FW102
At the FW102, the measuring linearity is checked during a check cycle. The check cycle lasts
approx. 200 s and comprises a:
• 20 s measurement of zero and check value
The values are only given
out to the analog output in
case of activation (see
Section 4.4.1).
• 90 s output of the check value
• 90 s output of the zero value.
Fig. 2.5: FW102 check cycle output on plotter
Check Value Measurement
(Span test)
The FW102 measures the check point with the receiver optics in the measuring position.
During this time, the light intensity changes between 70 and 100%. Thanks to a large
number of intensity shifts, which are evaluated statistically, the FW102 enables the check
point to be measured with pinpoint accuracy (prerequisite: dust contents > approx. 2 mg/
m³, otherwise the theoretically calculated 70 % value is given out.
The check value is evaluated in the same way as with the FW101 (error messages in case
of deviations of more than ±2 %).
Zero Value Measurement
The FW102 carries out a zero-point measurement in the same way with the FW101.

2.3.4 External Purge-Air Unit (Optional)
The connection unit with integrated purge-air supply cannot be used if the internal duct
pressure is greater than +10 mbar. In this case, the option with an external purge-air unit
must be used. It features a high-performance fan and is suitable for use in pressurized ducts
of up to 70 mbar.
Fig. 2.15: Pugre-air unit SLV 4 with purge-ait reduction
The purge-air hose nominal diameter 40 mm (length 5 m or 10 m, scope of supply ) is
connected to purge-air nozzle of the transmitter/receiver unit via the separate component
purge-air reduction (see Section 8.1.4).
A weatherproof cover is available if the system is to be used outdoors (see Fig. 2.23).
2.3.5 Adapter for Instrument Air Supply
The FW100 can be operated also with instrument air instead of the purge-air supplies from
the connection unit AK1-P or an external purge-air unit. To connect the instrument air, an
adapter is available with connection thread G 1/4“ and installed reduction nozzle (installing
at the purge-air nozzle of the transmitter/receiver unit).

2.3.6 Data Acquisition, Communication, Measured Value Output, and Display Options
Note The options described here can only be installed by the manufacturer.
Data Memory/Event Memory
Installed in transmitter/ receiver unit
This option enables up to 7,280 measured values and 100 events to be recorded in
continuous operation. The measured values can be saved as mean values over a definable
period (e.g. every half hour) and assigned a time stamp by an integrated real-time clock. All
changes in the device operating status (maintenance, limit value violation, error statuses)
are recorded as events The menu-driven MEPA-FW parameterization program reads or
displays the data (see section 4.5.1).
CAN Module
Installed in transmitter/ receiver unit
A separate evaluation unit is available to complement the existing input/output and
connection options (see section 8.2.5). To enable communication with this evaluation unit
via the CAN bus, the transmitter/receiver unit must be equipped with this module. In this
way, up to three FW100 systems can be connected to the evaluation unit with a data
transfer of up to 1000 m.
Second Analog Output
Installed in transmitter/ receiver unit
Instead of a CAN module, the transmitter/receiver unit can be fitted with a second,
electrically isolated analog output (0/2/4 ... 20 mA). It has the same technical specifications
as the standard output. The measuring range can be parameterized independently (see
section 4.5.3).
Note If a CAN module or second analog output is installed, you can only install two additional relay
outputs (operation/malfunction and limit value/maintenance; can be parameterized in
MEPA-FW). The following option is recommended here.
LCD
Installed in connection unit
To display the measured values and status information, a module with a 2-row LCD, two LED
for signaling "Maintenance" (green) and "Malfunction" (red), and three additional relays for
maintenance, the second limit value, and the check cycle can be integrated in the
connection unit. This module is activated by the transmitter/receiver unit, which must be
configured accordingly, that is, it must be ordered with the LCD.
The LCD shows the following status information:
Indications on the LCD Meaning
„Limit1 “ Limit 1 is exceeded
„ Limit2“ Limit 2 is exceeded
„Limit1 Limit2“ Limit 1 and limit 2 are exceeded
„Soft “ „Maintenance“ mode is set via MEPA-FW (Software maintenance)
„Hard (In1)“ „Maintenance“ mode is set by using of an external switch (hardware
maintenance; see section 3.3)
„Soft Hard (In1)“ Hardware and software maintenance are set
„Warning xxx“ see Section 6.2.1
„Malfunction xxx“ see Section 6.2.2

2.3.7 ASC Option (Automatic Self Control, only for FW102)
Using this option, the FW102 can be checked for proper device function. Especially at very
low dust concentrations near to zero an information is possible with it whether the device
still measures or has a malfunction (= Live Zero at the analog output).
The supervision is based on a permanent determination of the difference between the hig-
hest and lowest measuring value in an adjustable time interval. The device works normal if
a preselectable value was exceeded at least once (parameterization see Section 4.5.5).
Otherwise a malfunction message appears (“Automatic Self Control“). In this case it has to
be checked, whether there is really a device malfunction or merely minimal dust concentra-
tions are existing no longer measurable with the FW100.
2.3.8 Elbow Plug
To prevent damages at the signal cable to the connection unit by installation the FWSE101
in vertical ducts (cable connection from the side, see Fig. 4.1) and use of the weatherproof
cover for analyzer (see Fig. 2.24), we recommend to connect the transmitter/receiver unit
via the elbow plug option (see Section 8.2.1).
2.3.9 Check Filter Set for FW100
A linearity test can be performed to check the correct device function (see Section 6.4.3).
Absorption filters with defined transmission values are placed in the beam path and the
values are compared with those measured by the FW100. If the results match and are
within the permissible tolerance, the FW100 is functioning correctly. The absorption filters
and brackets are supplied with a case (see Section 8.2.4)

2.4 Device Configuration
The components required for the measuring system depend on the application. The
following table will help you decide which components you need.
Transmitter/Receiver Unit
Note Choose the nominal length of the transmitter/receiver unit so that the measuring opening
has a sufficient distance of the duct inside wall (> 100 mm). The measuring opening (see
Fig. 2.7) must not be in the middle of the duct!
Power and Purge-Air Supply
*: Instrument air provided by the customer (free of dust, oil, humidity, condensates, non corrosive)
ATTENTION
Important
If the gas temperature is higher than 220 °C, the optional external purge-air unit must be
installed! Only FWSE101 transmitter/receicer units up to 400 °C can be used.

3.3.3 Connecting/Commissioning the Optional External Purge-Air Unit
Activities
‡ Compare the supply voltage and frequency with the specifications on the rating plate of
the purge-air motor.
ATTENTION
Important
Do not connect the purge-air unit if the values do not match.
‡ Connect the power supply cable to the terminals on the purge-air motor (see
supplementary sheet on purge-air motor and cover of motor terminal box; see the
connection arrangement shown in Fig. 3.8).
‡ Connect a protective conductor to the terminal.
If you are in doubt, or if
you are using a special
motor version, the
operating instructions
supplied with the motor
take priority over any
other information.
‡ Set the motor circuit-breakers in accordance with the connection data of the fan (see
technical data of purge-air unit) to a value 10% greater than the rated current.
‡ Check the functioning and running direction of the fan (flow direction of the purge-air unit
must match the arrows at the inlet and outlet openings on the fan). If the direction of
running on 3-phase motors is incorrect, swap power connections L1 and L2.
‡ Connect the (optional) pressure monitor for monitoring the purge-air supply.
Important
ATTENTION
• Use a fail-safe power supply (emergency power supply, bar with redundant supply).
• The purge-air unit must be fused separately from the other system components. The fuse
type must match the rated current (see technical details of purge-air unit). Fuse each
phase separately. Provide circuit-breakers to protect against a phase failure on one side.

‡ Mounting the transmitter/receiver unit at the duct.
‡ Customer-specific parameterization in accordance with requirements.
If the FW100 is to be implemented for continuously measuring dust content, it must be
calibrated using a gravimetric comparison measurement to ensure accurate measurements
(see Section 4.4).
The process of setting options in accordance with Section 2.3.6 is described in Section 4.5.
The MEPA-FW parameterization program is shipped with the device. The required settings
can be easily configured using the program menus. Other functions (such as data storage
and graphic display functions) are also available.
Certain instrument functions can only be accessed once you have entered a password (see
appendix). The access rights are assigned in 3 stages:
4.1.2 Prerequisites
‡ Laptop/PC with:
– Processor: Pentium 2 or higher
– VGA graphics card
Pin assignment – Serial interface COM 1 or COM 2
– Main memory (RAM): minimum 32 MB
– Operating system: Microsoft Windows 95 or higher
‡ Interface cable (serial cable; see Options, Section 8.2) for connecting a laptop/PC to the
FW100.
‡ The MEPA-FW operating and parameterization program must be installed on the laptop/
PC. To install the program, insert the disk/CD supplied into your disk/CD drive, call up the

4.2 Installing and Connecting the Transmitter/Receiver Unit
First ensure that the assembly element for transmitter/receiver unit has been mounted at
the duct (see Section 3.2.1) and the purge-air supply is in operation (insure that the flow
direction is correct and the purge-air hoses are securely attached to the connector).
4.2.1 Aligning the Transmitter/Receiver Unit
The transmitter/receiver unit (FWSE 101, FWSE 102) must be aligned in the duct so that
the particle loaded gas can flow unhindered through the measuring volume.
To ensure that the labeling on the cover of the transmitter/receiver unit is clearly legible, the
cover should rotate through 90 ° in case of mounting the transmitter/receiver unit at a
vertical duct (loosen the securing screws, rotate the cover according to Fig. 4.1 or Fig. 4.2
and remount it again).
FWSE101 Alignment
Fig. 4.1: FWSE101 alignment
Notes • To prevent the device from being aligned incorrectly the next time it is mounted (e.g. after
maintenance), the holes on the bayonet catch that are not required should be sealed
using the cover supplied.
• Use the optional elbow plug in case of mounting the transmitter/receiver unit in a vertical
duct and using the weatherproof cover for the analyzer (see Section 2.3.8).

4.4 Parameterization
The FW100 is shipped with default settings (see Fig. 4.5). The standard values are
enclosed in the parameter log. You can also view these settings on the "Protocol" tab page
in MEPA-FW.
If you do not have to change these settings, you can use the FW100 in your installation
straight away.
4.4.1 Customer-Specific Parameterization
If you do have to change the parameters, set the password level 1 (see Section 4.1.1) once
the connection to MEPA-FW has been established, and activate "Maintenance" mode
(menu "Operating mode / Maintenance" or with external maintenance switch at the
terminals for the digital input Dig in 1). The device status is displayed in the „Measured values“ tab page by shining the system state LED „Maintenance“ (when the status is set via
MEPA-FW, the addition „(SOFT)“ for software setting is signaled). Then choose the "Parameter" tab page (see Fig. 4.5).

"Signal calculation" field
‡ Response time t90 (see Section 2.2.2)
Enter a value between 0.1 s and 600 s in the relevant field (in the format: XXX.XX).
Note The t90 time setting affects the response behavior of the measured value and the output
of analog values and the limit value relay. If you enter a high t90 time, the limit value relay
does not respond to transient, high measured value peaks. At low t90 times , the
response behavior of the FW100 is extremely quick (noise is greater).

‡ Calibration function
To realize the correlation between the primary measured variable scattered light intensity
and the dust concentration in the duct as exactly as possible, a regression function is in-
stalled in the field “Calibration function“. This function can be set as a quare or linear func-
tion. A total of 4 coefficient sets are supplied:
In the coefficient set 0 the regression coefficients can entered as required. This set has
to be selected if the FW100 must be calibrated to measure the dust concentration.
The coefficient sets 1 – 3 cannot be modified. The corresponding default set is activated
when you select one of these coefficient sets. You can use them if a maximum level of
precision is not essential. These sets are based on SICK’s extensive experience.
Note The regression coefficients of set 1 - 3 refer to dusts with a mean density of 2,5 g/m³, approximately spherical grain structure and even distribution of the dust in the duct cross-
section.
"Output" field
The current output and limit value relay is set in this field.
‡ Analog output
– Live Zero (LZ)
You can set the zero point to 0.2, or 4 mA.
Recommendation This value should ideally be set to 2 or 4 mA to differentiate between the measured
value and when the device is switched off or the power supply is interrupted.
– Measuring range (MR)
You must enter the lower MR limit for LZ and the upper MR limit for 20 mA.
‡ Limit value
Enter a value below or above which (depending on the selected measured variable) the
limit value relay is to drop out. The limit value relay has a hysteresis equal to 10 % of the
defined limit value.

"Check cycle" field
The check cycle is activated by default and the cycle time is set to 8 hours. You can
deactivate it by deselecting the "Enable" checkbox.
‡ Define the cycle time
In the "Interval" window, enter the time between the start of one check cycle and the next
check cycle (range: between 2 and 24 hours).
‡ Output at analog output
When you activate the "Check values analog output" checkbox, the check values
calculated during the cycle check are output at the analog output (see section 2.2.3).
Notes • Each time you switch on the device, and when the device exits "Maintenance" mode, a
check cycle is triggered after 60 s and the check cycle time begins again.
• An automatic check cycle is not triggered if the FW100 is in "Maintenance" mode at the
starting time.
ATTENTION
Important
• After entering of the parameters these must be transferred to the FW100. To do this,
press the button „Write to device“.
• If you change to another tab page before the parameter are transferred to the FW100,
the parameters set before parameterization remain valid.
4.4.2 Calibration for Dust Concentration Measurement
To measure the dust concentration exactly, the correlation between the primary measured
variable scattered light intensity and the actual dust concentration in the duct must be
established. For this purpose, the dust concentration must be determined by means of a
gravimetric measurement to VDI 2066 or ISO 9096 and compared to the scattered light
intensity values measured simultaneously by the FW100.
Required steps
The steps described here
will help you avoid making
input errors. Comparison
measurements require
special knowledge that
cannot be described in
detail here.
‡ Check whether the regression coefficients cc2 = 0, cc1 = 1, cc0 = 0 are set in the MEPA-
FW (if not, correct them accordingly). The measured scattered light intensity is directly
assigned to the mA value as a mg value at the analog output.
‡ Estimate the necessary measuring range and enter it in the "Parameter" tab page (see
Fig. 4.5).
‡ Carry out the gravimetric measurement to VDI 2066 or ISO 9096.
‡ Determine the regression coefficients
First, determine the correlation between the gravimetrically measured dust
concentrations and the mA values of the FW100.

Iout = LZ + SI · (2)
SI = measured scattered light intensity value
LZ = Live Zero
URL = defined upper range limit (entered value for 20 mA;
normally 2.5 x fixed limit value)
‡ Enter the regression coefficients
There are two possibilities:
– Direct input of K2, K1, K0 into a measurement computer.
The coefficient set and measuring range entered in the FW100 will not be changed
any more.
– Use of the FW100 regression function (no measurement computer necessary).
In this case the correlation to the scattered light intensity has to be determined. To do
so, the regression coefficients cc2, cc1, cc0 to be entered in the FW100 have to be
calculated from K2, K1, K0.
c = cc2 · SI² + cc1· SI + cc0 (3)
By using (2) in (1), the result is as follows:
c = K2 · (LZ + SI · ) + K1 · (LZ + SI · )+ K0
Using (3), the result is as follows:
cc2 = K2 · ( )
cc1 = (2 · K2 · LZ + K1) ·
cc0 = K2 · LZ2 + K1 · LZ + K0
‡ Enter regression coefficients cc2, cc1, and cc0 in the FW100.
Notes • A special program is available for calculating the regression coefficients.
• If a data memory / event memory is available, the FW100 measured values can be saved
as a file, from which the coefficients can be determined in MS Excel.
• If the new regression coefficients cc2, cc1 and cc0 are entered into the FW100 (but not
into a measurement computer), the analog output parameterization can be changed in
every way.
4.4.3 Filter Bag Control
The FW100 can be used to locate defective filter bags in cyclically cleaned hose or other
filter installations consisting of several individual filters (filter bags).
The check is carried out by continuously evaluating the cleaning peaks of all the filter bags
in a cleaning cycle. If the current filter value exceeds the limit value set in the FW100, the
limit value violation is assigned to the filter in question by means of an internal counter.

To use this feature, the following prerequisites must be available:
• Debounced synchronization signal of 25 … 900 ms for triggering a measurement cycle.
This synchronization signal must be provided by the plant operator and applied to
terminals 10 (DIG IN2) and 4 (GND) in the FW100 connection unit (e.g. connect terminals
10 and 4 with a relay contact).
• The time between the cleaning cycles of two consecutive filter bags must be greater than
twice the t90 time of the FW100, and equal to at least 2 sec.
Parameterization
Open the „Filterwatch“ tab page and activate the button „Stop“ (the „Measure“ mode is
automatically set when opening the tab page).

4.4.4 Data Backup
In some cases, you may have to reconfigure the parameter settings. You have the following
possibilities for the registration necessary for it:
‡ Print out the parameter log ("Protocol" tab page , button "Print protocol"; see Fig. 4.7)
and keep it with your documentation on the instrument.
Prerequisite: A printer has to be avalilable at the measuring site.
‡ Save the parameter log into a file (button "Save to file", define a new name if necessary).
This can be reloaded (button „Load from file“) and printed at a later time again. The
FW100 need not be connected to do so (select „Connection“ menu, interface „Simulati-
on“).
The parameter log can also be useful for determining the cause of malfunctions (send the
log to SICK).
Fig. 4.7: Parameter log (example)
Notes • The value shown on the field "Status code“ serves for the evaluation by the manufacturer
in the case of device malfunctions. If you want to analyze the instrument status, please
change to the "Diagnosis/Test" tab page. Possible messages displayed there and
corrective measures are described in Section 6.2.
• The device protocol can be changed also into a text file (ASCII format) and then edited
using any editor or text program. To do this, press the button “Print protocol“ and activate
the checkbox “Print to text file“ in the “Printer selection“ menu (see Fig. 4.8).

4.4.5 Starting Standard Measuring Mode
Standard measuring mode is started when you switch to "Measure" mode ("Operation mode / Measure" menu). This completes the standard commissioning procedure. The
measured values are displayed graphically on the "Measured values" tab page in MEPA-FW
and as a current value of the analog output (see Fig. 4.9).
Fig. 4.9: "Measured values" tab page
Notes • You can change the resolution of the displayed measured values in the "Diagram scale"
field by resetting the value in the "Peak auto scale" and entering a value between 1 and
10000 in the "Maximum" field.
• The instrument also switches to measuring mode when you close the MEPA-FW
operating and parameterization program. If “Maintenance“ mode has been set, the
FW100 automatically switches to "Measure".
• A check cycle is automatically triggered 1 min after the system has switched to measuring
mode.
• The current measuring values are displayed in the diagram when a check cycle is carried
out or if the FW100 is set into “Maintenance“ mode. Conversely, the check values are
given out at the analog output (if so parameterized, see Section 4.4.1) or the live zero
value in status maintenance.

4.5 Parameterizing Optional Devices
This section describes the settings required for the data memory / event memory, CAN
module, second analog output, and LCD options. Before you can enter or change the
parameters, you must switch to "Maintenance" mode and enter the relevant password.
Note The respective option must be installed in the factory (indicate it at ordering). Retrofitting is
only possible by the manufacturer.
4.5.1 Data Memory / Event Memory
The data is saved by additional hardware in the transmitter/receiver unit and activated by a
release code entered by the manufacturer. If these prerequisites exist and the system has
been connected, the data memory / event memory is available on the "Data memory / event memory" tab page.
Fig. 4.10: "Data memory / Event memory" tab page
Notes • The measured value and event table displays a maximum of 10 values/events along with
their date and time. If more exist, you can go to the required area by scrolling through the
table.
• In the measured value display, you can activate/deactivate the zoom function in the
center of the screen to choose all of the measured values that have been saved or just
those visible in the measured value table. You can scroll through the zoom area in the
table in the same way.
• When you call up this tab page, the column headers in the event table are always
displayed in abbreviated form. You can click the column header to display them in their
full form (column becomes wider), which enables you to see what each column indicates.

• The "Erase data memory" and "Erase event memory" buttons are only displayed when
the password is set (inactive display). The system must be in "Maintenance" mode for
active use.
Data memory
The measured value is averaged over the set period, whereby the current measured value
is totaled every 500 ms and, after the time interval has elapsed, the sum is divided by the
number of times it has been totaled. A prerequisite here is that no faults are present and
the system is not in maintenance mode. The resulting average value is not written to the
data memory, however, until the current measured values have been valid for at least 2/3
of the time interval, that is, the total sum of the times for "Maintenance", "Malfunction", or
check cycle was less than 1/3 of the time interval.
You can set or change the interval period for saving the measured values in the "Option
memory measurement value/save interval" field on the "Parameter" tab page within a
range of 1 s to 2 h (see Fig. 4.11).

Description
Note The "Save to file" and "ASCII export" functions can only be used if measured values or
events have already been read.
Function Description
"Read data memory" • When you press the "Read data memory" button, the measured values stored in the
connected FW100 are displayed in tabular and graphical form. Up to 7,280 measured values
can be displayed.
• The time range starts with the first measured value interval read and ends with the storage
time of the last (current) measuring interval. If (o) (=overflow) appears at the end of the row,
the data memory has overflowed at least once since it was last cleared.
• The time information for the measured values in the table always relates to the end of an
averaging interval (the storage time).
• If the cyclic backup was interrupted (power off, maintenance), the next measured value is
assigned a new time stamp. In this case, the row may not appear in full in the table.
"Erase data memory" The data memory is deleted after you have confirmed the system prompt. This function is only
available in "Maintenance" mode after you have entered your password.
Important
The data memory is also cleared if you change the set storage interval time ("Parameter" tab
page).
"Read event memory" • When you press the "Read event memory" button, the events stored in the connected
FW100 are displayed in tabular and graphical form. Up to 100 events can be displayed.
• The time range starts with the first event read and ends with the storage time of the last
(current) event.
• The time information for the measured values in the table always relates to the storage time.
"Erase event memory" The event memory is cleared after you have confirmed the system prompt. This function is only
available in "Maintenance" mode after you have entered your password.
"Load from file" You can choose and read a measured value file (*.dat) or event file (*.eve) stored in the system
(separate MEPA format).
"Save to file" The measured values or events displayed are store in a measured value or event file (separate
MEPA format).
"ASCII export" The measured values or events displayed can be stored in an ASCII file (*.txt). The data can
then, for example, be processed subsequently for a graphical analysis in a spreadsheet
program (such as Excel) or processed for logging purposes in a word processing program.
Important
The ASCII file cannot be re-read by MEPA-FW!

Setting the real-time clock
The FW100 has a battery-buffered real-time clock that is set by the manufacturer before
shipment. If required, this clock can be synchronized with the system time of a connected
PC. Ensure that the clock in the PC has the right date (year numbers from 2000 [00] to
2066 [66] only).
To set the clock, press the "Set with PC time" button in the "Option memory measurement
value" field on the "Parameter" tab page in MEPA-FW (see Fig. 4.12). This sets the device-
internal clock to the time and date of the connected PC.
ATTENTION
Important
Changing the time or date does not automatically reset the data memory / event memory,
which means that time ranges may occur twice or gaps may exist in the relevant memories.
4.5.2 CAN Module
An address must be assigned to the FW100 so that it can communicate with the evaluation
unit. Enter this in the "Option CAN-Bus" on the "Parameter" tab page (see Fig. 4.12). The
address can be set in a range of 73 to 127.
Fig. 4.12: Parameterizing optional devices
For communication between FW100 and evaluation unit, only the addresses 73, 74 and 75
are selectable. The assignment to the connected FW100 is displayed on the LCD of the eva-
luation unit in the following way:
• FW_1: FW100 with address 73
• FW_2: FW100 with address 74
• FW_3: FW100 with address 75

highest and lowest measuring value in a range of 0.1 to 1000 mg/m³ in the „ASC - Automa-
tic Self Control“ field on the “Parameter“ tab page (see Fig. 4.14).
The device works normal if the difference value was exceeded at least once in the set time
intervall. Otherwise a malfunction message appears (“Automatic Self Control“, see Section
6.2.2).
Fig. 4.14: „Parameter“ tab page (only for FW102)
Notes • If the difference value was exceeded in a time interval, a new one is automatically started
as well after changing the check values.
• The ASC option is deactivated by entering of zero for the difference limit.

5 Maintenance
5.1 General
The FW100 is designed for long-term and nearly maintenance-free operation. You simply
have to ensure that the optical boundary surfaces are clean and the purge-air supply is
functioning properly.
Before you carry out these maintenance tasks, you have to set the FW100 to
"Maintenance" mode. You can do this by connecting the digital input Dig in 1 (terminals 4,
9; see Fig. 3.7/Fig. 3.13/Fig. 3.15) externally on the hardware side, or by choosing
"Operating mode / Maintenance" in the MEPA-FW menu on the software side.
Once you have completed these activities, switch the system back to measuring mode
(switch off the external maintenance switch or choose "Measure" in the "Operating mode"
menu).
Note • When the maintenance switch is set, warning and fault messages are suppressed. The
live zero value is given out at the analog output.
• If the FW100 was set into "Maintenance" mode via MEPA-FW („Software maintenance“),
this status is reset at a voltage loss (in this case the FW100 switch automatically into
„Measurement“ after the operating voltage is switched on).
• If „Maintenance“ is set by an external switch, the FW100 remains in this status as long
as the contact is closed at the terminals 4, 9.
Maintenance intervals
The plant operator is responsible for defining the maintenance intervals. This will depend on
specific operating parameters, such as dust content and type, gas temperature, plant
operational procedures, and ambient conditions. For this reason, only general
recommendations can be provided here. The maintenance intervals are normally in the
starting time approx. 4 weeks for the FW101 and approx. 2 weeks for the FW102, and can
gradually be prolonged up to a year if the corresponding conditions are available. The
activities required and their completion must be documented by the operator in a
maintenance log.
Maintenance agreement
Regular maintenance activities can be carried out by the plant operator. These activities
must be carried out by qualified persons (as described in Chapter 1) only. If requested, all
maintenance activities can also be performed by the SICK Service department, or an
authorized service partner. SICK offers a range of economical maintenance and repair
agreements. SICK undertakes all maintenance and servicing work specified in these
agreements. Wherever possible, specialists carry out repairs on site.
DANGER
Warning
All installation work must be carried out in line with the relevant safety regulations and
instructions listed in Section 1.3 (especially Section 1.3.3).

5.2 Maintaining the Transmitter/Receiver Unit
DANGER
Warning
• Make sure that none of the components or accessories of the FW100 are damaged
when performing maintenance work on.
• The purge-air supply must not be interrupted.
Required tools:
• Brush, cloth, cotton buds,
• Water,
• Compressed air (dust and oil free; e.g. compressed air in 200 to 500 ml spray cans),
• A blind plug for the device attachment (if required).
5.2.1 Cleaning the Transmitter/Receiver Unit (Externally)
Clean the outside of the FW100 transmitter/receiver unit (particularly the measuring probe)
at regular intervals. Remove deposits with water or suitable mechanical aids.
To clean the transmitter/receiver unit remove it from the duct in the following way:
‡ For FW101 loosen the securing nuts.
‡ For FW102 in Tri-Clamp® version loosen the Tri-Clamp®-Fitting.
‡ For FW102 in 1“version loosen the locknut and remove the purge-air connection.
‡ Pull or turn out (FW102 1“) the transmitter/receiver unit.
After cleaning the transmitter/receiver unit install it in the duct.
5.2.2 Cleaning the Optical Boundary Surfaces
The "optical boundary surface" is the surface of the optics or glass that faces the duct.
The optical boundary surfaces of the T/R unit only require cleaning if they are visibly dirty or
if the current degree of contamination is reached and is monitored by FW101; limit 50 %
for warning, 70 % for malfunction).
Procedure
‡ Remove the transmitter/receiver unit from the duct.
‡ Unscrew the cap (black) on the cleaning opening; for FW101 also the cover at the top of
the probe.
‡ Clean the optics carefully with cotton buds, also the light trap if necessary (see Fig. 5.1
bzw. Fig. 5.2).
‡ Reassemble the transmitter/receiver unit and install it in the duct.
Note We recommend to check the the laser beam alignment in connection with cleaning of the
optical boundary surfaces (see Section 6.3.1).

5.3 Maintaining the Purge-Air Supply
You must carry out the following maintenance activities:
• Inspect the entire purge-air supply
• Clean the filter housing
• Replace the filter insert (if necessary)
The dust load and wear on the filter insert depend on the degree of contamination of the
ambient air that is drawn in. For this reason, we cannot provide specific recommendations
regarding maintenance intervals, although you are advised to inspect the purge-air unit in
short intervalls (approx. 2 weeks) after commissioning. The maintenance intervals can then
be optimized accordingly.
ATTENTION
Important
• If the purge-air supply is not maintained at regular intervals or maintenance is not
thorough enough, it can fail and destroy the transmitter/receiver unit.
• You must ensure that the purge-air supply is functioning properly when the transmitter/
receiver unit is installed. When replacing a damaged purge-air hose, you must remove the
transmitter/receiver unit beforehand (see section 5.4).
Inspection
‡ Check the running noise of the fan at regular intervals; an increased noise level can
indicate a fan failure.
‡ Check that all the hoses are secure and free of damage.
‡ Check the filter insert for contamination.
You must replace the filter insert when:
– a high degree of contamination is visible on the filter surface
– the purge-air quantity is considerably less than during operation with a new filter
Note You must not switch off the purge-air supply when cleaning the filter housing or replacing
the filter insert, which means that the transmitter/receiver unit do not have to be removed
from the duct.

6.3 Removal of Malfunctions
The reasons for some of the malfunctions described in the previous sections can be
recognized and cleared by the following points.
WARNING
Warning
When checking the laser beam for correct alignment, free transit and during adjustment
work, observe the safety information at all times:
• Never look directly into the laser beam.
• Never direct the laser beam at other persons.
• Make sure that the laser beam is not aimed at a reflective surface.
6.3.1 Adjusting the Laser Beam
The laser beam must be placed in the middle of the light trap opening. To check this please
do the following:
‡ Remove the transmitter/receiver unit from the duct.
‡ Loosen the securing bolts for the cover and remove it (only FW101).
‡ For FW101 put one finger behind the light trap, for FW102 cover it of the front with half
transparent material (see Fig. 6.2).
‡ Check if laser beam is placed in the middle .
Fig. 6.2: Check of laser beam alignment
‡ If not, remover the cover of the electronic unit and adjust the laser board by means of the
3 screws (siehe Fig. 6.3).
ATTENTION
Important
Loosen the screws only as far as the adjustment is possible. The initial tension by the disk
springs must remain unchanged.

Assemble the transmitter/receiver unit after adjustment and install it at the duct.
6.3.2 Checking the Laser Beam for free Transit (FW101)
Check and correction of
the FW102 are only
possible by the manuf-
acturer.
The laser beam must go centrically through the aperture plate (see Fig. 6.4). If this is not so
but the laser beam is adjusted correctly, the aperture plate has to be adjusted. To this the
following steps are necessary:
‡ Remove the transmitter/receiver unit from the duct.
‡ Remove the cover and the protection tube (see Fig. 5.1) (for protection tube use hexa-
gon socket screw key w/s 4).
Replace the sintered
metal filter in case of
bad contamination (see
Section Part no.).
‡ Check the beam transit and re-adjust the aperture plate if necessary.
If there are contaminations at the aperture plate opening, inside the sintered metal filter
or the purge-air outlets which influence the laser beam or block it, remove them.
‡ Assemble the transmitter/receiver unit, check if the laser beam is adjusted correctly ac-
cording to the previous section, and re-adjust if necessary.
‡ Install the transmitter/receiver unit in the duct.

6.3.3 Checking the FW101 Receiver Optics for Correct Movement
The receiver optics is moved during a check cycle from the measuring position (approx.
15 ° inclined towards the beam axis) into the reference position and back. For different
reasons (particularly for an older device) it can happen that the receiver optics has moved
from the correct start position. In this case the check cycle cannot be exactly carried out
(→ malfunction messages „Trigger level check cycle“).
Fig. 6.5: Receiver optics
Check
‡ Remove the transmitter/receiver unit from the duct.
‡ Remove the cover from the top of the probe.
‡ Start a check cycle (switch from „Maintenance“ into „Measurement“ mode or power
reset) and pay attention to the following (see Fig. 6.5):
– The sliding bar must be just visible in measuring position.
– The receiver optics must be freely mobile (sufficiently big slit between optics housing
and bracket).
– The laser beam must run completely centric about the optics with the movement of
the receiver optics in the reference position and back.
Correction
• Start position sliding bar
Wait during the check cycle is carried out until you can just see the sliding bar still and
disconnet at this moment the transmitter/receiver unit from the power supply (remove
the cable to the connection unit). Then connect the power supply and check again.
• Movement of the receiver optics
If the case grips during the movement, turn it carefully according to Fig. 6.5 until a suffici-
ent distance to the bracket is available.

6.4 Test and Diagnosis Options
You can call up the "Diagnosis/Test" tab page in MEPA-FW to check that the analog output,
relay outputs, digital inputs, and LCD are functioning properly (see Fig. 6.6). To do so, the
device must be connected to MEPA-FW via a laptop or PC, password level 1 must be set,
and the device must be set to "Maintenance" mode.
Fig. 6.6: "Diagnosis/Test" tab page
6.4.1 Testing the Signal Output
After you have activated the "Test mode on" checkbox in the "Test output signals" field, you
can check whether the analog output and relay outputs are functioning correctly by entering
an analog value and setting the radio button for the relays to "ON" or "OFF". To start the test,
click the "Write to device" button.
ATTENTION
Important
You have to deactivate test mode again before you exit the "Diagnosis/Test" tab page,
otherwise the measurement cannot be carried out properly.
6.4.2 Check Cycle
Click the "Check-point verification" button to check the check values (zero and span). Do
not activate the "Test mode on" checkbox. The following message is output if the check was
successful:
Zero point OK
Check point deviation < 2 %
Acknowledge the message by clicking "OK".

6.4.3 Linearity Check
To ensure that the device functions properly, you are advised to check the linearity of the
transmission measurement at regular intervals (e.g. during the annual functional check) to
ensure that the other measured variables are accurate. The FW100 Check Filter Set can be
used here. This equipment has been specially designed for the FW100. It consists of an
adapter for integrating special transmission filters and a filter set with different transmission
values.
For a description of the individual steps that have to be carried out in a linearity test, see the
accompanying operating instructions.
