Hach Ultra Analytics particle counters use a laser-diode light source and collection optics for particle detection. Particles scatter light from the laser diode. The collection optics focus the light onto a photo diode that converts the bursts of light into electrical pulses. The pulse height is proportional to the particle size. Pulses are counted and their amplitude is measured for particle sizing. Results are displayed as particle counts in the specified size range (differential count mode) or as total particle counts (cumulative count mode). A microprocessor controls all instrument functions. Count data is displayed as cumulative counts or differential counts.

The particle counter is thoroughly inspected and tested at the factory and is ready for use upon receipt. When received, inspect the shipping carton for damage. If the carton is damaged, notify the carrier and save the carton for carrier inspection. Inspect the counter for broken parts, scratches, dents, or other damage.

1.1 Operation Conventions

The 3400 is operated by use of a TFT color touchscreen located on the front panel of the unit, shown in Figure 1-1. All commands may be executed through the touchscreen.

Items on the screen that need to be touched or pressed to invoke actions appear in bold text.

Screen items commonly referred to in this manual include:

• A screen is a window of the Graphical User Interface (GUI) which takes up all visible space on the touchscreen and can only be exited by pressing a button.

• A tab is a subdivision of the GUI easily accessed by touching the tab at the top of the screen.

• An icon is an area of the touchscreen that should be touched to invoke another screen or execute an action (such as performing a sample run).

• A button is an area of the touchscreen that should be touched to invoke another screen or execute an action (such as clearing the buffer).

• A sliding menu is a group of icons hidden from view by default. The sliding menu appears as a tab at the bottom of the Main screen. Touch the tab to show all the icons and make a selection. Touching the tab again will hide the sliding menu.

• A field indicates an area of the screen where strings of text and/or numbers may be entered. To enter information in a field, touch the field. Depending on the nature of the field, a keypad will appear on the touchscreen to allow text or numeric entries. To complete entries from a keypad entry, touch OK.

• A checkbox allows functions to be toggled on or off. Touch the box to make a checkmark appear and enable the function.

• A dropdown menu allows operators to choose from a set list of values. Dropdown menus can be identified by the arrow on the right side of the field. To use a dropdown menu, touch the arrow to show the list, drag a finger or stylus down the list to show all items, then highlight the desired item to select it.

• A pop-up box is a warning or note to make sure actions are taken as intended. Touch OK to continue or Cancel to stop.

4.6 Generating Reports

ISO 14644-1, FS 209E and BS 5295 specify calculations for airborne particle counter count data. These documents establish the definitions for level of cleanliness in cleanrooms and clean zones based on specified concentrations of airborne particles. The printed reports provide the data to determine the cleanliness level for which that cleanroom qualifies.

Note:Reports will be generated from all records in the buffer. It may be necessary to clear some records from the buffer as described in “Clearing Buffer Records” on page 57 before generating a report.

4.6.1 ISO 14644-1 Calculation ReportISO 14644-1 sets classification levels to be used for the specification of air cleanliness in cleanrooms and other controlled environments. ISO 14644-1 establishes nine classes of cleanliness, all expressed in counts per cubic meter of air. ISO calculations also require samples to be taken at two or more locations.

Note:The 3400’s Upper Confidence Limit (UCL) specification of 95% is only valid for 2 to 9 locations per ISO specifications.

4.6.2 FS 209E Calculation ReportAlthough FS 209E has been superseded by ISO 14644-1, this regulation specifies the maximum allowable number of 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.5 micron and larger particles per cubic foot (or cubic meter) of air as determined by statistical methods. Two or more locations must be sampled for calculations to be made. Six class limits (1, 10, 100, 1000, 10,000, 100,000) designate the specific concentrations of airborne particles per cubic foot of air.

Note:The 3400’s Upper Confidence Limit (UCL) specification of 95% is only valid for 2 to 9 locations per ISO specifications.

4.6.3 BS 5295 Calculation ReportsAlthough BS 5295 has been superseded by ISO 14644-1, this regulation describes in detail the requirements for cleanrooms and air control devices and is still widely used. It establishes ten classes of cleanliness, all expressed in particles per cubic meter of air.

Note:To retake the samples at the same location, verify the location number is the same as the first sample and sample again. The data from the retaken sample will then be used in the calculations.

Appendix A: Service Procedures

A.1 Return Procedures

The 3400 Series Particle Counter has a one-year calibration cycle. The Model 3400 must be returned to an authorized service center for recalibration after one year of the date of calibration, listed on the decal on the back of the Model 3400.

To return the 3400 Series Particle Counter for repair or calibration, first obtain a returned material authorization number (RA#). The RA# number is necessary for any instrument that requires repair or calibration by an authorized service center. Include the RA# number on the shipping label when the instrument is returned.

For the most up-to-date RA# process information, including copies of all required forms, call Hach Ultra Analytics at 800.866.7889 or +1 541.472.6500.

To return an instrument for credit, please contact the local sales representative.

WARNINGThe following actions must be performed when returning any unit for any reason to prevent personal injury and/or damage to the unit.

• When the sensor is not in use, or is being stored, verify that the flow cell is clean. Non-volatile compounds can coat the flow cell windows, making cleaning very difficult.

A.2 Technical Support Information

Technical Support Engineers are available to provide advice and recommendations for applications, product operation, measurement specifications, hardware and software, factory and customer site training.

Please provide name, company, phone number, fax number, model number, serial number and comment or question.

Appendix F: Sample Status Bit Mask Definitions

F.1 Overview

The Status value represents several elements of unit status; environmental, count, and concentration alarms can be indicated with one value. The definitions of these values appear in Table F-1.

To determine the alarm conditions present, take the Status value and subtract the largest possible value listed in Table F-1. Continue to subtract the largest possible value until the value equals zero (0).

For more information, refer to “Exported Data Status Bit Masks” on page 69.
