Perform a sensor regeneration by following these steps:  Connect the AC power supply/charger between the matching (DIN) connector on the back of the J405 and an AC power outlet or connect the external battery pack to the back of the J405.  If the J405 is turned off, press the I/O power button to turn the instrument on.  Press the RIGHT arrow button (►) to enter the main menu.  Press the DOWN arrow button (▼) to move the cursor to Regen.  Press the RIGHT arrow button (►) to select Regen from the menu.  Press the ENTER/START button on the keypad to select Regen Now from the Regen menu. ...

The Jerome® J405 Mercury Vapor Analyzer is an ambient air analyzer with a range of 0.5 to 999 micrograms of mercury vapor per cubic meter (µg/m3 Hg). CAUTION: The Jerome® J405 is for gaseous vapor use only. DO NOT allow the probe or the instrument's intake to be exposed to any liquid, dust or other foreign material. The J405 is designed to be easy to operate for quick and accurate analysis of mercury vapor levels. It has few maintenance requirements. However, please take a moment to read this manual before attempting operation. If you have any questions about your application or operation, please...

The heart of the J405 is the well-proven gold film sensing technology. A thin gold film, in the presence of mercury vapor, undergoes an increase in electrical resistance proportional to the mass of mercury vapor in the sample. When the SAMPLE button is pressed, an internal pump pulls ambient air through a scrubber filter (AZI P/N: 600-0262) and into the flow system. After three seconds, the sample solenoid bypass opens, closing off the scrubber filter from the flow system. The sample air passes through the AG filter (AZI P/N: 600-0293), an acidic gas filter that removes any acidic gases that...

The instrument’s microprocessor automatically re-zeroes the digital meter at the start of each sample cycle and holds the meter reading until the next sample cycle is activated, thus eliminating drift between samples. During the sample mode cycle, a sensor saturation meter on the LCD represents the percentage of sensor saturation, or adsorbed mercury collected on the gold film. With use, the sensor becomes saturated and needs to be cleaned. This is accomplished by a manually activated 45-minute sensor regeneration cycle, which removes the mercury from the sensor. The solenoid bypass closes during...
