1Introduction
Thank you for purchasing one of Shimadzu's on-line analyzers.
• TOCN-4110 Total Organic Carbon - Total Nitrogen Analyzer
• TOC-4110 Total Organic Carbon Analyzer
• TN-4110 Total Nitrogen Analyzer
This instruction manual has been written for the TOCN-4110. The following icons are
used throughout the manual in the section headers to indicate the portions of the
manual that are relevant to the specified instruments.
• TOCN : TOCN-4110
• TOC: TOC-4110
• TN : TN-4110
The TOCN-4110 measures both total organic carbon (TOC) and total nitrogen (TN) in
water. TOC measurement is based on the combustion oxidation and nondispersive
infrared detection, while TN measurement is based on the combustion oxidation and
chemiluminescence detection.
Read this manual and keep it with the instrument for future reference.
Note: DO NOT operate this instrument before understanding the CAUTION, NOTE
and WARNING statements in this manual.
Notation Conventions
The following notation conventions are used in this manual.
Convention Description
Indicates the possibility of personal injury or
equipment damage.
CAUTION
Indicates the possibility of personal injury or

equipment damage.
WARNING
Provides additional information to ensure the

Note: correct use of the instrument.
Specification Differences
The instrument specifications are different and dependant on the optional attachment(s)
used.
The standard TOCN-4110 and TOC-4110 models are designed to measure Total
Carbon (TC) and Nonpurgeable Organic Carbon (NPOC). However, the options listed
below allow these instruments to perform additional analyses.
This Instruction Manual includes descriptions of the various optional functions. Use
your instrument according to its configuration.
Option Measurement Function
Standard Specification NPOC, TC
With DF option NPOC, TOC (TC - IC), TC, IC
With AD/DF option NPOC, TOC (TC - IC), TOC (POC + NPOC), TC, IC,
POC
When the DF or AD/DF option is included with the TOCN(P)-4110 (enclosure type),
TN and IC cannot be measured during the same analysis.
Refer to Section 3.1.1 through Section 3.1.6, for an explanation of the above terms.
TN Measurement and POC Measurement

In TN measurement, the type of nitrogen bond in the sample greatly affects the TN
detection rate. A detection rate of nearly 100% is usually observed for nitrogen in
nitrate, nitrite, ammonia and organic radicals; however, for some organic groups such
as hydrazines, pyrozolones and azide compounds, the detection rate can vary between
10 and 60%.
In POC measurement, both sample temperature and sparge conditions affect the
results. General standards do not exist for these parameters. Carbon dioxide gas
generated by the POC component is removed by the in-line CO2 absorber (with alkali
lithium hydroxide). A portion of the POC component, such as esters, is also removed.
Therefore, the POC measurement results obtained using this technique are not
absolute.The user should consider all measurement conditions when determining POC
with this instrument.

1.1 Precautions
1.1.1 Operational Precautions
1.1 Precautions
Note: Only authorized Shimadzu service engineers should perform repairs to internal
components of the instrument, as such repairs may pose a danger to the user.
Do not make modifications to this instrument that are not described in this
documentation, as user safety may be jeopardized.
WARNING
This instrument is not explosion proof.
This instrument may be an ignition source.
The appropriate power supply MUST be used. Contact your Shimadzu
representative for the specific power requirements for instruments sold
in your country.
Strictly adhere to the following precautions when using this instrument.
1.1.1 Operational Precautions
1) When the furnace is heating or at operation temperature, the area near

the central part of the furnace (inlet of furnace) becomes extremely
hot. To prevent burns, NEVER touch this area with bare hands.
2) Before heating the furnace, verify that the carrier gas is flowing. This
prevents high sensitivity catalyst from being forced upward in the
combustion tube.
3) Before switching ON the ozone generator, verify that the source air
used for ozone generation is flowing at a rate of at least 0.5 L/min.
This is indicated on the air flow meter incorporated in the instrument
Refer to Figure 5.1 “Flow Rate Controllers”.
4) If the smell of ozone is noticed during operation, immediately switch
OFF the ozone generator and contact your Shimadzu service
representative for maintenance. Do not interrupt the air supply.
5) Do not allow the drain tube on the left side of the instrument to be
elevated higher than the drain outlet. If resistance in the drain tubing is
too great, liquid may back up inside the instrument and cause
corrosion of the internal parts.
TOCN-4110 3
1.1 Precautions
1.1.2 Maintenance Precautions
1.1.2 Maintenance Precautions
1) Do not heat the furnace without a combustion tube. If the furnace must
be heated without a combustion tube, first remove the white plastic
injection port parts to prevent deformation from the radiant heat of the
furnace.
2) Before shutting down the instrument, turn OFF the ozone generator at
least 3 minutes before switching OFF the instrument power. This
allows sufficient time for any residual ozone to be eliminated from the
ozone gas tubing.
3) The furnace operates at either 680°C or 720°C. Cool the furnace
before performing maintenance on the combustion tube. It is
STRONGLY recommended that appropriate protective gloves be worn
unless the furnace is at room temperature.
4) The ozone generator operates at high voltage (6000V). Use care to
avoid electrical shocks.
5) The POC option uses a CO2 absorber filled with lithium hydroxide
(LiOH) anhydride to remove CO2 from the purgeable organic carbon
(POC) measurement flow line. Lithium hydroxide anhydride can be
dangerous. Use extreme care when filling or replacing the LiOH
container. Dispose of the LiOH according to your local regulations.
Refer to Section 9.1 “Material Safety Data Sheets” for precautions for
handling lithium hydroxide anhydride.
6) Hand tighten the fittings to the 8-port sampling valve or 6-port
standards valve. Over tightening the fittings may deform the valve
body and cause leaks or instrument damage.
7) Shut down the instrument completely before performing maintenance
on the syringe drive parts of the Sample Pretreatment/Injection
System. Drive components may suddenly start moving or liquid may
be expelled from detached tubing when the instrument power is not
completely OFF.
8) Sample is supplied to port #2 of the 8-port sampling valve even when
the instrument is not running. Before disconnecting the sample tubing,
ensure that all sample flow is stopped to prevent leakage, spraying or
spilling of liquids that might be hazardous to the operator and/or the
instrument.
Note: Do not use solvents or other chemicals to clean the surface of the instrument.
Instead, wipe the surface with a water-dampened cloth.

Figure 2.1 Power Inlet
Connect the instrument to a stable power supply with the appropriate voltage (±10
volts) and a supply current capacity of more than 10A. A stable voltage supply is
required for high sensitivity measurement. Voltages outside the allowable range may
result in abnormal operation or damage to the unit. Contact your Shimadzu
representative for the specific power requirements for instruments sold in your country.
Since this instrument is set for both 50 and 60 Hz, a power supply with either of these
frequencies is acceptable.
Complete grounding is important for safety as well as to prevent external noise from
affecting the logic circuits and computer components. The analyzer needs to be
grounded to less than 100 Ω. Refer to power equipment technical standards for details.
The power supply switch in this instrument incorporates thermal breakers instead of
fuses. The switch turns off automatically when there is a surge in the current. If the
thermal breaker becomes tripped, the power may be turned back ON again with the
switch. In the event of repeated breaker trips, locate the problem and take remedial
measures.
WARNING
The instrument should be individually grounded. Avoid connecting the
ground to water pipes, gas pipes or the lightning rod.

CAUTION
Drainage occurs by gravity. Resistance to flow in the drain tubing may
result in insufficient drainage and flooding inside the instrument.
Verify that the external drain tubing remains below the drainage
discharge port.
CAUTION
The drain liquid may be acidic. Use caution when handling the drain
liquid.
Note: Locate the drain near the instrument to accommodate the constant flow from
the Flow Line Switcher.

2.5 Gas Connection
2.5.1 Carrier Gas Connection
2.5 Gas Connection
2.5.1 Carrier Gas Connection
Connect the compressed air (or oxygen) supply tubing that will serve as the carrier gas,
sparge gas and ozone source. See Figure 2.2 “Drain / Gas Connection.”
Gas supply: Compressed air or oxygen that is free of dust, oil and water.
Pressure: 250-300kPa (36-43psi)
Gas supply ¼" Male NPT
connector:
This instrument utilizes a gas purifier to remove CO2 from the carrier gas through
catalyst-assisted combustion. Since the purifier has limited capabilities, the supply of
compressed air should adhere to the following conditions:
1) Do not use compressed air containing moisture.

Install an in-line filter for proper moisture removal. When the
temperature around the line running from the compressor to the
instrument is lower than that around the compressor, moisture
condenses inside the supply tubing. Install an in-line filter on the
supply tubing near the instrument gas connector to separate and
remove moisture.
2) Use an oil-less compressor to prevent the introduction of oil into the
air supply.
3) Avoid installation sites that have high concentrations of volatile
organic solvents vapors or exhaust from gasoline/diesel engines. Use a
filter to remove organic particles or gas.
4) Stabilize the supply pressure to within ±20kPa (3psi) of the
recommended 250-300kPa (36-43psi) range. It may be necessary to
install pressure regulator valves in the supply line.
2.5.2 Exhaust Tubing TOCN TN
This instrument uses the chemiluminescence method for the detection of TN

components and is equipped with an ozone generator. The ozone and NOx are
removed, before release, from the exhaust gas by the ozone treatment unit and NOx
absorber. As the ozone treatment catalyst and NOx absorbent deteriorate, some ozone
or NOx gas may be contained in the exhaust. Connect the 8mm I.D., vinyl tubing to the
exhaust port and vent it outside or to a suitable ventilation hood.

2.6 Sample Delivery Lines

The sample delivery lines are connected to the sample overflow pipe (option) mounted
outside the instrument on the left side. The inlet line is connected to the lower
connector and the outlet line to the upper connector with ½" male polystyrene
connectors. The sample delivery lines and necessary fittings are not included with the
analyzer unit and must be supplied by the user.
The sample supply and waste ports of the Suspended Particle Flow Line Switcher are
polyvinyl chloride tubes with internal diameters of 13mm and 28mm, respectively. Use
an appropriate type of flexible tubing to connect to these ports.
CAUTION
The sample overflow pipe MUST remain open to the atmosphere to
prevent damage to the internal components of the instrument during
sample influent pressure surges. If necessary, an extension pipe
(P/N 631-41593-01) is provided to protect against spills.

3Operating Principles
3.1 Measurement Principles
3.1.1 TC (Total Carbon) Measurement TOCN TOC
The combustion tube is filled with catalyst and heated to 680°C (or 720°C). Carrier gas
(purified air or oxygen) is supplied to this tube at the rate of 150mLmL/min.
When the sample is introduced into the combustion tube, the TC component in the
sample is combusted/oxidized to form carbon dioxide. The carrier gas, with the
combustion product (CO2) flows to the dehumidifier where it is cooled and dried. It
then passes through a halogen scrubber into the sample cell of the nondispersive
infrared (NDIR) detector, where the CO2 is detected. The NDIR outputs an analog
detection signal that generates a peak. The area of this peak is calculated by a data
processor.
The peak area is proportional to the TC concentration in the sample. A calibration
curve is generated by the external standard method, to express the relationship between
the peak area and the TC concentration. The sample TC concentration is determined
from the calculated peak area.
3.1.2 IC (Inorganic Carbon) Measurement TOCN TOC
Acidify the sample (pH 2-3) by adding hydrochloric acid to convert IC to carbon
dioxide. Sparging the sample with carrier gas removes the CO2 and carries it to the
NDIR. The concentration of IC is determined in the same way as that of the TC.
Carbon in the form of carbonates and hydrogen carbonates may be measured as IC.
3.1.3 NPOC (Nonpurgeable Organic Carbon) Measurement
3.1.3 NPOC (Nonpurgeable Organic Carbon) Measurement

TOCN TOC
The sample is acidified to pH 2-3 by adding hydrochloric acid to convert IC to carbon

dioxide. Sparging the sample removes the CO2 from the solution. The organic carbon
remaining in the sample after eliminating the IC is measured using the method
described in Section 3.1.1 “TC (Total Carbon) Measurement.”
This method is accepted as TOC (total organic carbon), provided little or no volatile
component is contained in the original sample (EPA, JIS, ASTM). Volatile organic
compounds contained in the sample may be lost in the sparging treatment described
above. Therefore, TOC measured by this method is more appropriately termed NPOC
(nonpurgeable organic carbon). The term NPOC is applied in the TOCN-4110 and
TOC-4110 to differentiate from the determination of TOC by the difference between
TC and IC (TOC1) or the addition of NPOC and POC (TOC2).
3.1.4 POC (Purgeable Organic Carbon) Measurement TOCN TOC
POC is the measurement of the organic component of TOC that is volatilized during
sample sparging for NPOC measurement. The sparge gas passes through the CO2
absorber (LiOH) for POC to eliminate the CO2 from the IC in the sample. The gas then
passes through the POC combustion tube to be oxidized. The resulting CO2 is detected
in the NDIR. Data processing is conducted the same way as for TC measurement. See
Section 3.1.1 “TC (Total Carbon) Measurement.”
POC is not precisely defined. The extent to which an organic compound is volatilized
during sparging, depends on the type of organic, the gas/liquid contact with the sparge
gas, the ambient temperature and the vapor pressure of the component. Since the
organic component in the aqueous solution is the target of measurement, organic
compounds that are highly soluble in water are not easily volatilized by sparging. For
example, only a small percentage of methanol present in a sample is volatilized.
The CO2 converted from inorganic carbon compounds during acidification and
sparging is removed as the sample passes through a CO2 absorber (LiOH). This strong
base may also absorb POC components that are acidic, such as esters.
Therefore, the POC measurement results obtained using this technique are not
absolute. The user should take all of the above factors into consideration when
analyzing for POC using this instrument.
26 TOCN-4110
3.1.5 Choosing a TOC Measurement Method
3.1.5 Choosing a TOC Measurement Method TOCN TOC
Three TOC measurement methods are available with this instrument.

• The acidify/sparge method (NPOC). This method is valid when the volatile
organic component is very low or nonexistent.
• The TC minus IC method (TOC1). This method is available with the DF
option.
• The POC plus NPOC method (TOC2). This method is available with the AD/
DF option.
The NPOC method is the most commonly used TOC method. The other methods that
measure the POC sample component must be considered and quantified.
When measuring TOC as the difference between TC and IC, if the IC component is
relatively high compared to the TOC component, a negative number could result due to
the inherent error in this method. It is difficult to determine a suitable ratio of TOC to
IC, however, as a guide, samples with less IC than TOC should be considered
appropriate for this method of measurement.
If the IC concentration exceeds 10ppm with the TOC/TN catalyst (see Section 4.1.1
“Catalyst for TOC/TN Analysis”) or 5ppm with the high sensitivity catalyst (see
Section 4.1.2 “Catalyst for TOC Analysis”), the percent detection is low. Use the
NPOC method of measurement in these cases.
TOC measurement as the addition of NPOC and POC is appropriate for samples high
in IC content. These measurements impact the service life of the CO2 absorber (LiOH).
Frequent maintenance is necessary when the IC content exceeds 30ppm.
3.1.6 TN (Total Nitrogen) Measurement TOCN TN
As in TC analysis, the sample is injected into the combustion tube (720°C), where the
TN content of the sample is converted into nitrogen monoxide (NO). Nitrogen gas is
not converted to NO. The carrier gas, along with the NO, is cooled dehumidified and
exposed to ozone (O3) to convert the NO to NO2 whwew it enters the
chemiluminescent gas analyzer and is detected. The signal from the chemiluminescent
(CLM) detector is converted to a peak, enabling measurement of the TN concentration
in the sample.
The type of nitrogen bond in the sample greatly affects the TN detection rate. A
detection rate of nearly 100% is usually observed for nitrogen in nitrate, nitrite,
ammonia and organic radicals; however, for some organic groups such as hydrazines,
pyrozolones and azide compounds, the detection rate can vary between 10 and 60%.
TOCN-4110 27
3.2 Measurement Operations
3.2.1 Carrier Gas Purification

Refer to Figure 3.1, Figure 3.2 and Figure 3.3 for the flow line diagrams of the TOCN-
4110, TOC-4110 and TN-4110.
3.2.1 Carrier Gas Purification
The amount of impurities in the carrier gas must be extremely small for this instrument
to accurately measure the amount of carbon in a sample. Consequently, this instrument
incorporates a carrier gas purification function.
Compressed air supplied to this instrument passes through the furnace and is heated in
a platinum catalyst-filled L-shaped combustion tube. Organic impurities in the carrier
gas are completely oxidized to CO2 gas that is removed by the CO2 absorber to
produce a clean carrier gas. Compressed air used with this function must meet
instrument grade standards. Cylinders of high purity air or a TOC air generator may
also be used to supply the carrier gas.
3.2.2 Sampling
Water flows continuously through the overflow pipe at the upper left exterior of this
instrument and is sampled through the Sample Pretreatment/Injection System. The
constant sample volume is 3mL. If sample is to be diluted, the necessary amount of
sample is drawn into the syringe and dilution water is added to create a total sample
volume of 3mL.
In the calibration operation, the standard solution is drawn from a standard solution
bottle inside the instrument. The dilution function is available during the calibration
operation.

described in Section 3.2.2 “Sampling.” The syringe plunger descends to a point below
the sparge gas inlet in the sidewall of the syringe, allowing sparge gas to be introduced.
The 8-port valve of the Sample Pretreatment/Injection System is opened to exhaust the
sparge gas. The sample and dilution water are mixed by the sparge gas.
When performing NPOC measurement, the sample and dilution water, if required, are
drawn into the syringe. A fixed amount of acid is drawn from the acid bottle inside the
instrument. Sparging is conducted as described above to remove the IC component and
mix the sample.
3.2.4 Sample Injection
In TC, NPOC and TN measurement, a fixed volume of sample in the syringe is injected
into the combustion tube.
Before injecting the sample, the inside of the sample injection tubing (between the
Sample Pretreatment/Injection System and the injection slider) is rinsed with water
from the dilution bottle. As dilution water is being drawn back into the syringe, carrier
gas from the combustion tube is drawn into the sample injection tube. This clean gas
contains no CO2. The sample is then drawn into the syringe and injected. The actual
amount of the sample injected into the combustion tube is equal to the amount of the
sample delivered from the syringe minus the internal volume of the sample injection
tubing. It is necessary to determine the internal volume of the sample injection tubing
(see Section 4.14 “Zero Correction of the Sample Injection Volume”) to determine the
actual amount of sample injected into the TC combustion tube,
In IC measurement, the sparge gas goes directly from the syringe to the NDIR detector.
In IC measurement using the TOC1 measurement method (TC-IC), the sample
remaining in the syringe after IC measurement is then subjected to TC measurement.
In POC measurement using the TOC2 measurement method (POC+NPOC), the sparge
gas is conducted to the POC combustion tube after passing through the CO2 absorber
(LiOH). The sample remaining in the syringe after POC measurement is then subjected
to NPOC measurement.

3.2.5 Peak Area Measurement
3.2.5 Peak Area Measurement
The software automatically detects the start and end points of a peak that is generated
from the NDIR or CLM detector and calculates the peak area. The start and end points
are determined on the basis of slope. When the slope exceeds a preset value, it is
detected as a peak start and conversely, when the slope value decreases below a preset
value, it is detected as the peak end. If the sample volume is large, as in TC
measurement, multiple peaks may be generated. In these cases, only the end point of
the last peak is detected. The total area of two or more peaks is calculated. Baseline
correction is performed to obtain the correct peak area when a peak is generated on a
fluctuating baseline.
3.2.6 Washing
After measurement, flow line washing may be performed as programmed by the user.
Since this function is performed after each injection, the measurement cycle time
becomes longer.
Flow line washing is performed by introducing dilution water and sparge gas into the
sample tubing connected to the Sample Pretreatment/Injection System.

3.3 Calibration Curve
3.3.1 Calibration Curve
3.3.1 Calibration Curve
The NDIR output signal is linear throughout the instrument range. The output
relationship does not deviate from a linear curve.
1-point or 2-point calibration curves may be used. A 1-point calibration curve passing
through the origin is sufficient from a practical standpoint for IC or TC calibrations
greater than 100ppm.
The TN output signal from the chemical luminescence gas analyzer is linear within the
specified concentration range of the instrument. 1-point or 2-point calibration curves
may be used. The 1-point calibration curve uses a single intercept through the origin,
while a 2-point calibration curve has both a blank and a standard and can be shifted
through the origin.
A 2-point calibration curve should be used for standard solutions less than 10ppm. The
TC contained in the standard preparation water cannot be ignored in these standards
with respect to the standard solution concentration. Refer to Section 3.3.2 “Shifting to
Origin” for details. Up to nine separate calibration curves may be used.
3.3.2 Shifting to Origin
This function is used when the amount of TC contained in the standard preparation
water used cannot be ignored with respect to the standard solution concentration. The
calibration curve is corrected for the amount of TC in the standard preparation water.
For example, when water containing nmg/L of TC is used to prepare a 10ppm standard
solution (actually 10 + nppm), the calibration curve will appear as shown in Figure 3.4
by the solid line. However, if this curve is used as is, the measured sample will always
show a value nppm less than the true value. Shifting the curve so that it passes through
the origin, as shown by the broken line in Figure 3.4, corrects the curve to compensate
for the nppm TC contained in the standard preparation water.
When there is a system blank, the measured value will be greater by the amount of the
system blank. In most cases, the error due to the TC associated with the standard
preparation water is larger than the system blank. Therefore, Shifting to Origin results
in more accurate measurement values.
In Figure 3.4 “Shifting the Calibration Curve to Origin,” the solid line represents the
actual curve and the broken line is the shifted curve.

Figure 3.4 Shifting the Calibration Curve to Origin
The TC standard solution is sparged with carrier gas before generating a TC or NPOC
calibration curve. This function is effective for low concentration standards that might
be affected by dissolved CO2 in the standard solution. Sparging removes the dissolved
CO2. The amount of dissolved CO2 in the standard preparation water is affected by the
standard solution preparation method, the method of storage and the concentration of
CO2 in the surrounding atmosphere. Even if the concentration of the dissolved CO2 in
the standard preparation water is low, further dissolution is possible by contact with air
during the standard preparation. Table 3.1 indicates the relationship between CO2 in
the air and the amount dissolved in water.
This method is appropriate when the TOC in the sample water is low and/or the
dissolved CO2 is so high that it cannot be ignored.
The Shift to Origin function is not used when the sparging function is used on the
calibration standard. It is not necessary to sparge the standard if the Shift to Origin
function is to be used.
Note: Never sparge IC standard solutions. Sparging decreases the IC concentration.

3.4 Quantitation
3.4 Quantitation
The sample measurement value is derived from a comparison of the measured sample
peak area to the previously generated calibration curve.
If repeat measurements are conducted, an average value (MN), standard deviation
SD% and coefficient of variation CV% are calculated and displayed on the screen. The
standard deviation and coefficient of variation are used to verify the degree of
reproducibility in repeat measurements.
3.5 Auto-setting of Measurement Conditions

The optimum measurement conditions, detector range and injection volume are
automatically set once the standard solution concentration is entered in the
CALIBRATION/CONDITIONS screen. The detector range and injection volume are
balanced so that the peak height is generally within 70-90% FS. Occasionally when the
peak is overly large or small the peak height may range from 50-95% FS. The injection
volume is reduced as much as possible to prolong the life of the catalyst and reduce the
volume of acid required for IC removal.
The user may change the auto-set conditions if different parameters are required.
The range ratio of the H, M and L carbon concentration detector sensitivities of this
instrument are approximately 1, 7 and 49, while that of the H, MH, ML and L nitrogen
concentration detector sensitivities are approximately 1, 4, 20 and 100. Thus, when the
automatically set conditions are changed, the ratio between the injection volume and
range (injection volume/range) is selected so that it is about the same as the value
corresponding to the automatic settings.
When two standard solutions are set for a 2-point calibration curve, the measurement
conditions are automatically set based on the high concentration solution.
This function is standardized to a peak height based on the use of N-propyl alcohol as a
TC standard solution, which has a relatively sharp peak. When potassium hydrogen
phthalate is used, the peak height is shorter and braoder but should not adversely affect
the measurement. Typically, a 90% FS N-propyl alcohol peak will result in a 50-60%
FS potassium hydrogen phthalate peak.
36 TOCN-4110
3.6 Auto-modification of Measurement Conditions
3.6 Auto-modification of Measurement Conditions

During sample analysis, if the peak height exceeds full scale, the detector sensitivity is
automatically changed to a lower sensitivity, such as, H→M→L (or
H→MH→ML→L). After the sensitivity change is implemented and measurement is
possible on full scale using this lower detector sensitivity, measurement is conducted
for the specified number of repetitions. Detector sensitivity is noted in the RMK
column of the measurement results.
The before and after change ratio is used to correct the concentration value before it is
output. If the original detector sensitivity was “L” at measurement start, the detector
sensitivity is not automatically changed.
Dilution is automatic if the peak exceeds the full scale range when AUTO RE-
MEAS(DIL) is set to “ON” in the GENERAL CONDITIONS screen and the detector
range is set to “Low.” The auto-modification ratio changes to either 2-fold or 5-fold,
depending on the degree to which the peak exceeds the full scale. The resulting dilution
factor cannot exceed 20-fold. Measurement results based on a modified dilution factor
are corrected and output as a change ratio, with the modified dilution factor displayed
in the RMK column.
Additional points to be considered for auto-modification of detector range and dilution
factor follow.
1) The detector sensitivity and dilution factor change ratios introduce a
certain level of error. It is possible for the especially large change
ratios to alter the data.
2) The auto-modification functions will not work to increase the size of a
small peak.

4Preparations
4.1 Filling the Combustion Tube with Catalyst
The type of catalyst used with this instrument differs depending on the type of analysis
performed. To measure both TOC and TN, fill the combustion tube as described in
Section 4.1.1 “Catalyst for TOC/TN Analysis.” To measure only TOC, follow the
directions described in Section 4.1.2 “Catalyst for TOC Analysis.” Be careful not to
contaminate the catalyst or allow foreign matter to mix with the catalyst when filling
the combustion tube. Contamination could cause high blank values or abnormal values.
CAUTION
The combustion tube is made of quartz glass. Use care when handling to
avoid breakage.
Note: New catalyst may result in large blank peaks. Repeated injections of acidified
water or sample will gradually diminish and stabilize the blank peaks.
Measurement fluctuation that could result in significant errors, will result if
analyses are conducted while the blank peaks are still large.
To stabilize the blank peaks to the smallest possible values. Performing repeated
injections of acidified water. Distilled or ion exchange water is acidified to a pH 2-3.
Normally, one hundred 100µL injections are performed with the detector sensitivity set
to “H”. Record the peak areas to verify stabilization of blank peaks. Determination of
the appropriate blank values depends on the quality of the water (concentration of TC
due to impurities) and the expected range of TC concentrations. Blank peaks
corresponding to 1ppm have little effect on measurement values of 100ppm samples.
However, for sample concentrations in the vicinity of 10ppm. Blank peaks must be
stabilized to 0.5ppm or less.
Blank peaks are small and stable in TN analysis, even when new catalyst is used.
Prepare the catalyst for measurement by making ten 100mL injections of distilled
water or ion exchange water with the detector sensitivity set to “H”. The blank peaks
should remain small and pose no problems for analysis.
The electric furnace temperature needs to be changed depending on the type of catalyst
used. An authorized service engineer must perform this change. Contact your
Shimadzu representative if these changes are necessary for your application.
4.1.1 Catalyst for TOC/TN Analysis
4.1.1 Catalyst for TOC/TN Analysis TOCN TN
The TOC/TN catalyst is used for both TC and TN analyses. The furnace temperature is
set to 720°C for this catalyst. If the IC component exceeds 10ppm, the TC-IC method
yields an unacceptably low detection rate. Use the NPOC method for TOC analysis in
these situations.
If TN measurement will not be conducted, the catalyst described in Section 4.1.2
“Catalyst for TOC Analysis” is recommended. This catalyst requires a lower furnace
temperature, which increases the service life of both the catalyst and combustion tube.

4.1.2 Catalyst for TOC Analysis
4.1.2 Catalyst for TOC Analysis TOCN TOC
Two types of catalyst are available for measuring TOC. These catalysts are the regular
TC catalyst and the high sensitivity catalyst. Do not use either of these for TN
measurement. The furnace temperature is set to 680°C when using these catalysts.
The regular TC catalyst is most commonly used. This catalyst is applicable for the
(TC-IC) method and for the NPOC method of TOC analysis. Fill the combustion tube
with catalyst as described in Figure 4.2. The high sensitivity catalyst option is used to
measure samples with TC concentrations of 1ppm or less. Blank peaks may be larger
with the regular TC catalyst and can interfere with analysis in this range. The high
sensitivity catalyst has insignificant blank values. The high sensitivity catalyst is
mainly used for trace TOC analysis of pure water (less than 1ppm). If the IC
concentration in the sample exceeds 5ppm with the high sensitivity catalyst, the
detection rate is low with the (TC-IC) method. It is recommended that the NPOC
method of measurement be used in these applications. Fill the combustion tube
according to Figure 4.2. Two containers of high sensitivity catalyst are required to fill
the combustion tube. Align the openings of the combustion tube and cylindrical
catalyst container. Use the catalyst-filling rod to push the catalyst into the combustion
tube.

4.2 Connecting the Combustion Tube
CAUTION
The furnace and combustion tube are VERY HOT. Allow the
combustion tube and catalyst to cool to room temperature before
handling. It is STRONGLY recommended that appropriate protective
gloves be worn if the furnace has not been allowed to cool.
Connect the combustion tube using the following procedure.
Procedure
1. Insert the catalyst-filled combustion tube, narrow end down, into the 22mm
diameter furnace opening.
CAUTION
The hole at the bottom of the furnace is large enough to allow the
combustion tube to drop completely through the furnace.
2. Apply a very thin layer of high vacuum silicon grease to the outside of the
upper end of the combustion tube (where the O-ring contacts). Firmly insert
the upper end of the combustion tube into the injection port assembly.
Note: Use only a very small amount of silicon grease. Use special care to
ensure that the grease does not contact the inside of the combustion
tube.
3. Refer to Figure 4.5 to connect the scrubber and PTFE union to the bottom of
the combustion tube.
4. Turn the knurled thumbscrews clockwise to secure the sample injection port.
Ensure that there is no up/down movement of the slider at the drive gear
connection. Movement at this connection will adversely affect the seal
between the slider and the Teflon sample injector block O-ring.
5. Stuff quartz wool (P/N 630-00557) into the space at the bottom of furnace to
surround the neck of the combustion tube.

4.13 Standard Solution Preparation
4.13.1 About Pure Water (Zero Water)
4.13.1 About Pure Water (Zero Water)
Pure or zero water refers to a standard solution with zero concentration of TC, IC or
TN or the water used to prepare these standard solutions. The water stored in the
dilution water container is used for sample dilution and should be pure water. Water
that is in theory absolutely free of carbon (TC) or nitrogen (TN) is used as zero water. It
is difficult, in practice, to obtain this type of water. Even ultra-pure water obtained
using a high-performance membrane technique or water that has been repeatedly
distilled will have a TC content of about 10ppb. This value is measured directly after
manufacture and increases when the water is stored in a container. Carbon dioxide is
contained in the atmosphere at 300-500mg/L. The CO2 content is higher in a room
with many people or where combustion equipment is used. This carbon dioxide
dissolves in the water and is present as IC. The dissolved amount is generally about
0.2mg/L, but is dependent on the water temperature and carbon dioxide content of the
air in contact with the water. Refer to Table 3.1 “Relationship Between CO2 in Air and
in Distilled Water (ppm)” page 35. Instruments that prevent contact with air are not
incorporated in water up-take, retention or storage during common distillation and
purification of water. For this reason, IC is present in most distilled or purified water.
There are cases where the TC content in distilled water commercially available in
plastic or glass containers is 1ppm.
The purity of water required for zero water varies depending on the analysis range.
There would be no problems using commercially available purified water for a sample
containing more than 200ppm carbon. The quality of the zero water should be
considered along with the analysis range. In low-level applications, a direct delivery
system from a water purification system may be necessary.

4.13.2 TC Standard Solution Preparation
4.13.2 TC Standard Solution Preparation TOCN TOC
Accurately weigh 2.125g potassium hydrogen phthalate (P/N 630-00635-01) into a

1-liter volumetric flask. Dissolve in and dilute to volume with zero water. This solution
has a concentration of 1000mg/L (1000mgC/L) = 1000ppmC and should be stored as a
stock solution. The concentration of the stock solution does not necessarily have to be
1000ppmC; it could be 2000ppmC.
Standard solutions of the necessary concentrations are prepared by accurately diluting
the stock solution with zero water. For IC removal, add diluted hydrochloric acid to the
standard solution before bringing it to volume. See Section 4.7 “IC Removal Acid.”
For adequate IC removal, about 20mL of diluted hydrochloric acid should be added to
each 500mL of standard solution. The final concentration of the acid is about 0.05N.
Since the catalyst for TOC measurement uses a 680°C combustion method, samples
containing difficult to volatilize organic substances generate shorter and broader peak
profiles than samples with easier to volatilize organic substance. This is true even if
their original TOC concentrations are the same. As sample injection volumes increase,
this tendency becomes even more evident. However, since the peak areas are the same,
there is no effect on the measurement value.
The importance of this phenomenon is illustrated by the following example:
When calibration is performed with potassium hydrogen phthalate, the
detector sensitivity and injection volume may be set so that the peak height on
the screen is about 75% full scale. If the TOC components of the samples have
a low boiling point, sharp, tall peaks may be generated. Even if the TOC
concentration is less than that of the potassium hydrogen phthalate standard,
the peaks may be off scale.
To prevent this kind of situation, use a standard solution containing a low
boiling point organic compound. Standard solutions may be difficult to prepare
or even unstable if the boiling point is too low or dissolution of the organic
substance in the water is low. Use care when selecting an appropriate standard
compound.
Preparation of a standard solution using N-propyl alcohol (1-propanol):
Accurately weigh 1.67g (2.07mL) of reagent grade N-propyl alcohol (>99.5%)
into a 1-liter volumetric flask. Dilute to volume with zero water. After
thorough mixing, this stock solution has a concentration of
1000mgC/L=1000ppmC.
Note: TC standard solutions are also used as standards for NPOC measurement.
Stock and standard solutions should be sealed tightly and stored at 4°C.
4.13.3 TN Standard Solution Preparation TOCN TN
Accurately weigh 7.219g of reagent grade potassium nitrate into a 1-liter volumetric
flask. Dissolve in and dilute to volume with zero water. This stock solution has a
concentration of 1000mg/L (1000mgN/L) = 1000ppmN. Prepare working standards
following the procedure in Section 4.13.2 “TC Standard Solution Preparation.”
TOCN-4110 57
4.13.4 IC Standard Solution Preparation (Option)
4.13.4 IC Standard Solution Preparation (Option) TOCN TOC
Accurately weigh 3.50g of reagent grade sodium hydrogen carbonate that was
previously dried for 2 hours in a silica gel desiccator and 4.41g of sodium carbonate
previously dried for 1 hour at 280-290°C and cooled in a desiccator in a 1-liter
volumetric flask. Dissolve in and dilute to volume with zero water. This solution has a
concentration of 1000mgC/L=1000ppmC. Except for the addition of the diluted
hydrochloric acid, prepare working standards following the procedure in
Section 4.13.2 “TC Standard Solution Preparation.” Do not add the hydrochloric acid
to the IC standard solution.
Note: IC standard solutions are also used as standards for POC measurement. Stock
and standard solutions should be sealed tightly and stored at 4°C.
4.13.5 POC Standard Solution Preparation (Option) TOCN TOC
The IC standards are used for POC analysis. Refer to Section 4.13.4 “IC Standard
Solution Preparation (Option).” Because of the stability of the carbonates and
bicarbonates, solvents such as benzene and chloroform may be used as standard
solutions. However, the solubility of these organic solvents is extremely low as
compared to water, making it difficult to prepare standard solutions of the required
concentrations. The concentrations of these prepared standards are not very stable, so
handling them is somewhat difficult.
Do not add any acid to the POC standard solution.
4.13.6 TC/TN Mixed Standard Solution Preparation TOCN
A mixed TC/TN standard solution may be used when TC (or NPOC) and TN are
analyzed simultaneously. If the optional standard solution switching set is not installed
it is necessary to use a mixed standard, because in this configuration only one standard
bottle may be used.
TC/TN mixed standard solution is prepared by mixing the respective standard
materials, according to the description in Section 4.13.2 “TC Standard Solution
Preparation” and Section 4.13.3 “TN Standard Solution Preparation.” Add diluted
hydrochloric acid to the standard solution as described in these preparations.
4.13.7 Filling the Standard Solution Bottle
Pour the standard solution into the provided standard solution bottle (500mL
polyethylene container), cap and label. Place the bottle on the stand in the position
indicated in Figure 4.10 “Placement of Humidifier, Acid Bottle and Standard Solution
Bottle” page 47. Insert the standard solution delivery tube (Teflon tube, outer diameter
1.6mm) through the opening in the center of the cap, until it reaches the bottom of the
container.

4.14 Zero Correction of the Sample Injection Volume

This instrument ensures accurate injection volume using the ZERO CORRECTION
OF INJECTION VOLUME function. This function compensates for the volume of
sample contained in the sample injection tubing. To ensure that the injection volume
entered on the screen corresponds to the actual amount injected, it is necessary to
determine the internal volume of the sample injection tubing.
Note: It is only necessary to perform this operation for initial instrument operation
and whenever the sample injection tubing is replaced.
Procedure
1. In the MAINTENANCE screen, move the cursor to [ZERO CORRECTION

OF INJECTION VOLUME] and press the (ENTER) key.
2. Fill the dilution water bottle with pure water and press the (START / STOP)
key. This initializes the Sample Pretreatment/Injection System.
3. Detach the slider from the injection port by pulling forward on the slider. It is
not necessary to detach the sample injection tube from the slider.
4. The initialization operation of the Sample Pretreatment/Injection System

empties the sample injection tubing to allow the user to view the advancing
dilution water from the syringe to the sample injection tubing. Watch the
forward surface of the advancing dilution water through the sample injection
tubing and press [FAST] (F1) or [SLOW] (F2) to discharge dilution water. The
[FAST] (F1) key delivers about 1.7 µL of water each time it is pressed and the
[SLOW] (F2) key delivers about 0.4 µL of water each time it is pressed.
Without allowing water to overflow from the end of the tube, release the
function key exactly at the point where the advancing water surface reaches
the end of the sample injection tube. If any water overflows from the end of the
tube, press [REDO] (F4) and perform the operation again.
5. When the surface of the dilution water is aligned with the end of the sample
injection tubing, press the (ENTER) key. The internal volume of the sample
injection tubing is entered into the instrument and the display returns to the
MAINTENANCE screen. The internal volume value is preserved even if an
ALL RESET is performed.
6. Reattach the slider to the injection port.
CAUTION
To avoid injury, keep hands away from the Sample
Pretreatment/Injection System while it is in motion.

5.1 TC Catalyst Selection TOCN TOC
Two types of TC catalysts may be used with this instrument, Regular TC catalyst and
High Sensitivity catalyst.
Regular TC catalyst is typically used for higherppm analyses. The High Sensitivity TC
catalyst has a lower blank value and should be used when analyzing samples having a
TOC content of 1ppm or less.
High Sensitivity catalyst is used in low/ultra-low level analyses. There is a 5ppm IC
concentration limitation when using the High Sensitivity catalyst. High IC
concentrations physically damage the catalyst bed by causing the quartz wool fibers to
become brittle. There are no limitations with respect to TOC. Although the High
Sensitivity catalyst bed may be used for the entire analysis range, it costs more than the
Regular TC catalyst.
Note: The High Sensitivity catalyst cannot be restored for reuse by washing, as is
possible with the Regular catalyst.
5.2 Carrier and Sparge Gas Flow Rate Adjustment
5.2 Carrier and Sparge Gas Flow Rate Adjustment

The instrument requires a carrier gas source pressure of about 250-300kPa. (36-43psi).
The pressure and flow rate adjustment of the carrier gas are performed inside the lower
compartment of the instrument. Refer to Figure 5.1.
Carrier gas is supplied to the flow rate controller when the power is switched on. Turn
the pressure-regulating valve so the pressure gauge reads 200kPa (200 ± 10kPa).

performed.
Select the SPRG GAS VALV item in the SERVICE, MECHANICAL CHECK screen.
Refer to Figure 5.32 “MECHANICAL CHECK Screen” page 120 to supply the sparge
gas. Adjust the flow rate using the sparge gas adjustment knob until the carrier/sparge
gas flow meter reads in the range of 50-150mL/min. The greater the sparge gas flow
rate, the faster the IC is eliminated from the sample. Set the flow rate based on the
characteristics of the sample. Adjust the sparge gas flow rate to a point where the IC is
completely removed from the sample during the allocated sparge time.
CAUTION
Do not allow the supply pressure of carrier gas to this instrument to
exceed 300kPa (43psi). Do not set the carrier gas internal pressure
gauge to greater than 200kPa (28psi). Excessive pressure may damage
the instrument components.

5.5 Measuring Samples Containing Suspended Substances
5.5 Measuring Samples Containing Suspended

Substances
The injection tubing used in this instrument has an inner diameter of 0.5mm. Refer to
Section 4.14 “Zero Correction of the Sample Injection Volume.” Suspended particles
that do not readily pass through the tubing cannot be analyzed and may clog the tubing.
Even if the solids should pass through the tubing, analysis reproducibility is poor for
samples that do not uniformly contain such solids. Reproducibility is also poor when
the particles are not uniformly distributed in the syringe.
Mixing/crushing the particles in a mixer/homogenizer to make them uniform is a
possible solution for such samples. An optional high-speed mixer/homogenizer,
contained in the sampling container of the Suspended Particle Flow Line Switchers,
may be utilized. The size of the suspended particles that may be analyzed is further
limited by the inner diameter (3mm) of the overflow tubing and tubing connected to
this unit. Uniformity of particle distribution within the syringe cannot be guaranteed by
using this unit.
5.6 Handling Samples Containing Acid, Alkali and

Salts
It is necessary to consider possible interferences and increase maintenance
requirements when analyzing samples containing acid, alkali or salts.
Follow the precautions described below when analyzing these types of samples.
However, following these precautions may not prevent accelerated deterioration of the
measurement cell. Corrosion of the internal surfaces of the measurement cell may have
occurred if the baseline frequently drifts in a positive direction. Follow the
countermeasures when dealing with these types of substances to minimize this
deterioration.
The concentration threshold at which problems generally occur is greater than
1000ppm. Whenever possible, dilute the sample to reduce the concentration of acid,
alkali or salt. This instrument incorporates an automatic dilution function to make the
dilution process more uniform.
132 TOCN-4110
5.6 Handling Samples Containing Acid, Alkali and Salts
5.6.1 Acids and Salts
5.6.1 Acids and Salts
Strongly corrosive Cl2 or Br2 gas attacks the internal surfaces of the measurement cell
if samples containing chlorine or bromine acids or salts are injected into the TC
combustion tube. Chlorine is produced not only from hydrochloric and hypochlorous
acid, but also by heating ammonium chloride, calcium chloride, magnesium chloride,
etc. The halogen scrubber removes most of this chlorine.
The halogen scrubber and the scrubber connected to the bottom of the TC combustion
tube absorb and eliminate most of the chlorine, hydrogen chloride and other gaseous or
mist substances. The sample moves through the scrubbers at a flow rate of 150mL/min.
If the sample contains these substances in very high concentrations, the scrubbers are
overwhelmed and cannot completely remove the halogens as they pass. It is highly
recommended that whenever possible these types of samples are diluted.
Interfering components and corrosive substances are produced when measuring
samples containing sulfuric acid, nitric acid or other inorganic acids or salts. The
halogen scrubber has little effect in counteracting these substances. Avoid these acids
whenever possible.
If required, use 2N hydrochloric acid for adjusting the sample pH. HCl is an EPA
approved acid.
5.6.2 Alkali Samples
Reduced sensitivity and poor reproducibility quickly result when measuring alkali
samples. Deterioration of the catalyst and combustion tube also result from these types
of samples. Alkali samples readily absorb atmospheric CO2 and are likely to produce
high IC concentrations. Using the NPOC method for TOC analysis is recommended.
When the alkaline samples are analyzed for TN, acidify the samples by adding diluted
hydrochloric acid. Refer to the ACV item in Section 5.4.6 “SMPL MEAS/
CONDITIONS (1) Screen.” A large amount of acid is required to acidify these
samples. Use pH test paper or a pH meter to verify a pH range of 2-3. Enter the amount
of acid to be added using the automatic acid addition function to achieve the proper pH
range.
TOCN-4110 133
5.6 Handling Samples Containing Acid, Alkali and Salts
5.6.3 Salt Deposits
5.6.3 Salt Deposits

Salts are deposited inside the combustion tube when continuous measurements are
conducted on samples containing salts. This results in increased resistance to the
carrier gas flow. Maintenance of the combustion tube may be required to remove the
salt accumulation when reduced measurement reproducibility is noticed. Refer to
Section 6.3.1 “Washing or Replacing Catalyst.”
Note: If airflow resistance increases, the sound of escaping gas may become evident
or the carrier gas flow rate may fluctuate when the slide injector moves. When
these phenomena are evident and measurement is not reliable, blockage of the
catalyst bed is probable.
5.6.4 Dilution Function

This instrument incorporates an automatic dilution function. Sample and dilution water
are drawn into the Sample Pretreatment/Injection System at a user-defined dilution
factor and mixed using the sparge gas.
Dilution is necessary if the TOC or TN concentrations in the sample exceed the
measurement range and/or to decrease high concentrations of salts, acids and alkalis.
The TOC contribution from the dilution water has a greater effect on measurement
results when the TOC or TN concentrations in the sample are very low. This should not
cause a problem if the calculated concentration of the sample after-dilution is 30ppm or
higher. Always consider the impact of the dilution water quality and the level of
analysis accuracy required by the application whenever using the dilution function.
When using the NPOC method to analyze very high pH streams, acid may be added to
the dilution water help lower the pH. This is done in addition to the typical acid
addition from the acid bottle stored inside the analyzer.
Note: Do not add acid to dilution water used for IC analyses.
In very acidic streams, with high molecular weight organic contamination that tends to
precipitate and stick to the plunger tip, sodium hydroxide or other bases may be added
to the dilution water in small amounts to minimize accumulation and resultant
clogging.
Note: A final pH of less than 7 should minimize the impact of the base on the
catalyst. If the dilution water is too basic the catalyst and/or combustion tube
may be damaged.
134 TOCN-4110
5.7 Shutting Down the Instrument

Use the following procedure to shut down the instrument.
Procedure
1. Turn the ozone generator switch OFF (TOCN, TN only).
2. Turn the furnace switch OFF.
3. After waiting 30 minutes, switch the power off.
4. Shut off the supply of carrier gas at the source.
WARNING
When stopping instrument operation, turn the furnace power OFF at
least 30 minutes before turning OFF the instrument power. This allows
for adequate cooling of the furnace and prevents damage to injection
port parts or electronic components.
WARNING
When shutting down the instrument, turn the ozone generator OFF at
least 3 minutes before turning off the instrument power. This allows
sufficient time for any residual ozone to be eliminated from the ozone
gas tubing.
If the instrument is to remain idle for a prolonged period (one week or more), execute
the VALVE DRYING function in the MAINTENANCE screen before switching OFF
the instrument power. Refer to Section 5.4.22 “MAINTENANCE Screen.” This
ensures that the 8-port valve of the Sample Pretreatment/Injection System will rotate
smoothly upon restart.
If the power will remain ON during the idle period, it may be preferable to use the
VALVE SELF-PROT INT function in the GENERAL CONDITIONS screen. This
function sets a fixed time interval at which the Sample Pretreatment/Injection System
8-port valve automatically operates. See Section 5.4.3 “GENERAL CONDITIONS
Screen.”

6.1 Inspection
6.1.1 Acid, Dilution Water and Standard Solution Containers
Periodically inspect each of the containers to verify that there is a sufficient quantity of
the appropriate liquids and solutions in the various containers. Refer to Section 5.4.24
“COUNTER (2) Screen,” to set the warning levels.
6.1.2 Humidifier Water Level (Option) TOCN TOC
Periodically inspect the humidifier to verify that there is a sufficient amount of water. If
necessary, replenish with pure water through the supply port. Fill to the upper indicator
line.
WARNING
Do not overfill. Do not immerse the glass tube into water.
6.1.3 Checking Dehumidifier Drain Vessel Water Level
Verify that the water level in the drain vessel is within 10mm of the overflow tube on
the side of the container. If necessary, add water to the appropriate level.
With the carrier gas flowing at 150mL/min, verify that gas is not leaking into the drain
vessel from the drain tube. If gas is leaking and the water level in the drain vessel is
normal, the membrane filter or halogen scrubber may be clogged. However, directly
after sample injection, bubbles exiting the drain tube are a normal pressure release.
6.1 Inspection
6.1.4 Inspecting the Sample Injection Stream
6.1.4 Inspecting the Sample Injection Stream

How sample is injected from the injection tube greatly affects the repeatability and
precision of analysis. The injection onto the catalyst should be a vertical stream as
shown in Figure 6.1 on the left. The injection may be viewed through the combustion
tube during normal operation.
If a scattered or deflected spray stream is observed, open the SERVICE screen and
adjust using the SAMPLE INJECTION CHECK item. Refer to Section 5.4.25
“SERVICE Screen” for more information. Observe the sample injection stream and
make necessary adjustments. Rinse the tubing to remove any debris adhering to the tip.
If necessary, cut off about 1mm of the tip of the tube, reattach the tube and verify that
the injection is normal.
Note: If it is necessary to cut the tubing, thereby shortening it, the Sample Injection
Volume Zero Correction procedure must be performed. This procedure is
described in Section 4.14 “Zero Correction of the Sample Injection Volume.”
Poor Poor
Good (deflected stream) (scattered spray)
Figure 6.1 Sample Injection Condition
When reinserting the sample injection tubing into the slider, do not allow the tip of the
tubing to extend beyond the bottom of the slider. If the tip is lower than the bottom of
the slider, it may scratch the O-ring and result in a gas leak. The tip of the tubing must
extend into the depression on the bottom of the slider for the sample to be properly
injected.
WARNING
To avoid injury, keep hands away from the Sample Pretreatment/
Injection System while it is operating.
6.1.5 Inspecting the Printer and Recorder Chart Paper (Option)

A color stripe becomes visible when the printer or recorder chart paper nears the end of
the roll. This indicates that it is time to replace the chart recorder paper roll. Refer to
Section 4.12 “Printer and Recorder Chart Paper (Option)” for replacement of the
paper. Use only paper specified by Shimadzu Corporation. Use of other papers for the
thermal printer could damage the printer head and rollers.

6.2 Catalyst Regeneration
6.1.5 Inspecting the Printer and Recorder Chart Paper (Option)
6.2 Catalyst Regeneration TOCN TOC
Inorganic substances in the samples accumulate on the catalyst bed as salts or oxidized
substances. Measurement sensitivity and reproducibility decline as the quantity of
these substances become excessive. Verify performance by measuring standard
solutions. Regenerating the catalyst may restore performance. Regeneration is
performed automatically through the MAINTENANCE screen. Refer to
Section 5.4.22 “MAINTENANCE Screen” for more details.
Measurement of standard or zero water on a new catalyst bed or one that has not been
used for a long period sometimes results in high blank peaks with a decreasing trend. In
these cases it is appropriate to perform the catalyst regeneration procedure to activate
or reactivate the catalyst bed.
IC removal acid is used in the regeneration process.
If performance is not restored after performing the catalyst regeneration procedure, it
may be necessary to wash or replace the catalyst. Refer to Section 6.3.1 “Washing or
Replacing Catalyst” for more information.
Note: Catalyst regeneration is only necessary for TC measurement. In NPOC
measurement, the sample injected into the combustion tube is already acidic,
so catalyst regeneration is unnecessary.
TOCN-4110 139
6.3 Maintenance
6.3.1 Washing or Replacing Catalyst
6.3 Maintenance
6.3.1 Washing or Replacing Catalyst
When regeneration of the catalyst, described in Section 6.2 “Catalyst Regeneration,”

does not restore sensitivity or reproducibility, the catalyst should be washed or
replaced.
Wash the catalyst using tap water to remove the salts that have accumulated on the
catalyst from measurement samples that contain high salt concentrations. Neutralize
any residual alkalinity with dilute hydrochloric acid, rinse the catalyst with pure water
(ion exchange water is acceptable) and then dry the catalyst in a drying oven. Do not
dry the catalyst at a temperature greater than 700°C. This procedure may allow the
catalyst to be reused several times.
CAUTION
The furnace operates at 680°C (or 720°C). Cool the furnace prior to
performing maintenance on the combustion tube, catalyst, etc. If the
furnace has not cooled to room temperature, it is STRONGLY
recommended that appropriate protective gloves be worn.
WARNING
The catalyst beads MUST be completely cooled prior to washing.
As the washed catalyst is heated in the furnace, large amounts of steam are generated.
Heat the combustion tube and catalyst carefully with the exit of the combustion tube
open until the steam dissipates.
If washing the catalyst does not restore performance, it is necessary to replace the
catalyst. A single bottle of platinum catalyst will fill the combustion tube. The
platinum screens (2 pc.) and the combustion tube may be reused after washing with
hydrochloric acid (concentrated hydrochloric acid diluted two times with water),
rinsing with water and then drying. Fill the combustion tube following the directions
given in Section 4.1 “Filling the Combustion Tube with Catalyst.”
Washing will not restore high sensitivity catalyst. When regeneration does not restore
acceptable measurement sensitivity and reproducibility, it is necessary to replace the
high sensitivity catalyst. Clean the platinum screens and combustion tube with
hydrochloric acid. Two tubes of platinum catalyst are required to fill the combustion
tube one time. Fill the combustion tube following the directions given in Section 4.1
“Filling the Combustion Tube with Catalyst.”

6.3 Maintenance
6.3.2 Washing or Replacing the TC and L-shaped Combustion Tube
6.3.2 Washing or Replacing the TC and L-shaped Combustion

Tube
The combustion tube may be used until it breaks or starts leaking due to cracks.
Reaction with salts in the sample may cause devitrification or whitening of the internal
surface. This does not impact performance. When the catalyst is washed or replaced,
the combustion tube may be reused after washing it with hydrochloric acid and drying
it.
L-shaped combustion tube (for carrier gas purification and/or POC measurement) may
be used until it breaks or starts leaking due to cracks.
CAUTION
The furnace operates at 680°C (or 720°C). Cool the furnace prior to
performing maintenance on the combustion tube, catalyst, etc. If the
furnace has not cooled to room temperature, it is STRONGLY
recommended that appropriate protective gloves be worn.
6.3.3 Replacing the CO2 Absorber
The CO2 absorber is used for the cleaning carrier gas, NDIR optical system purge gas,
sparge gas, for POC measurement and for the NOx absorber. Replace the entire
container.
The CO2 absorber used for the cleaning carrier gas and as the NOx absorber must be
replaced at least every 2 months. The replacement interval depends largely on the
operation conditions. It is not necessary to use a new CO2 absorber as the NOx
absorber. Used CO2 absorbers can be used efficiently as the NOx absorber, because the
CO2 absorber that is saturated with CO2 still has the capability to absorb NOx. To
reduce operation cost, used CO2 absorbers should be used for the NOx absorber.
Note: The carrier gas CO2 absorber and the NOx absorber MUST be replaced every
2 months.

6.3 Maintenance
6.3.4 Replacing Halogen Scrubber
6.3.4 Replacing Halogen Scrubber
The absorbent in the halogen scrubber darkens as it absorbs chlorine. This

discoloration band advances toward the outlet end of the scrubber, as shown in Figure
6.2 “Halogen Scrubber.” Replace the halogen scrubber before the discoloration band
reaches the end of the scrubber. Some baseline fluctuation may be noticed immediately
after replacing the scrubber. Stabilization normally occurs within one hour. Monitor the
instrument until the baseline stabilizes.
The halogen scrubber is used and discarded as a complete container. Do not attempt to
replace the contents of the scrubber with fresh absorbent. Dispose of the scrubber
according to your facility's waste disposal requirements. Refer to Section 9.1
“Material Safety Data Sheets” for more information. The membrane filter should be
replaced whenever the halogen scrubber is replaced.

6.3.6 Replacing Syringe Plunger Tip
6.3.6 Replacing Syringe Plunger Tip
The plunger tip is made of fluorine resin. Over time the plunger tip wears with use.
Eventually, gaps develop between the plunger tip and glass syringe barrel, resulting in
leaks. Once a leak occurs, bubbles form near the plunger tip as sample is drawn in or
sample leaks from the bottom of the barrel as it is injected. Use the provided
replacement plunger tip if necessary.
Note: Keep a spare plunger tip on hand at all times.
Replace the plunger tip using the following procedure.
1. Using a sharp cutter, knife, etc., make cuts into the bottom of the plunger tip at
two or three locations, as shown in Figure 6.4.
2. Grasp the plunger tip using pliers, etc. and pull the plunger tip out of the
plunger. Remove the O-rings from the tip of the plunger. These O-rings must
not be reused.

Figure 6.6 Cleaning the Sparge Tubing
Sparging to remove IC from the sample is performed inside the syringe. During
sparging bubbles are formed as shown in Figure 6.6. After extended use, it is possible
for the sparge gas tubing to become partially clogged and reduce the sparge gas flow
rate.
If this occurs, remove the intermediate connector from the sparge tubing and the
knurled thumbscrew from the syringe. Pass a piece of wire 0.2-0.3mm in diameter
through the sparge tubing to remove any blockage.
6.3.8 Replacing the Sample Injector O-rings
Two types of O-rings are used between the sample injector slider and the injection
block. If a gas leak occurs at this location, replace both O-rings. The upper, white O-
ring is Teflon (P/N 036-11408) and the lower, black O-ring is Viton (P/N 036-11209).
Apply a small amount of silicon grease (P/N 017-30812-01) to the black Viton O-ring.
Note: DO NOT apply grease to the Teflon O-ring.
A Teflon coated O-ring, AS-568A-116 (P/N 630-01566), is used between the injector
block and TC combustion tube. Replace this O-ring if gas leak occurs at this location.
Do not scratch any O-ring or O-ring seat.

6.3 Maintenance
6.3.9 Replacing 8-port Valve Rotor and Stator
The rotor and stator in the 8-port valve of the Sample Pretreatment/Injector System are
ceramic. These items typically require no maintenance. However, in applications
where minute granular particles are present in the sample, scratching of the rotor and
stator sliding surfaces can occur. These scratches could result in sample leaks,
inclusion of bubbles when suctioning or the delivery of sample to the wrong port. It
may be necessary to replace the rotor and stator if these types of problems occur.
Use the following procedure to replace the 8-port valve rotor and stator.
1. Stop the supply of sample to the overflow pipe.
2. Remove the syringe Refer to Section 4.6 “Sample Pretreatment/Injection

System Syringe.”
3. Disconnect the tubing at Port #2 of the 8-port valve.

Note: Have an appropriate container on hand to collect any sample or liquid
remaining in the tubes connected to the 8-port valve. In addition, if a
Suspended Particle Flow Line Switcher is attached, verify visually that there is
liquid remaining in the sample mixer container.
CAUTION
Sample pressure is applied to Port #2 of the 8-port valve (also to Port
#1 when the optional Sample Flow Line Addition Set is installed).
Ensure that the sample supply is shut off and that an appropriate
container is on hand to collect any liquid remaining in the sample
overflow pipe.

6.3 Maintenance
6.3.10 Special Handling for the 8-Port Valve
Before switching OFF the power, if the instrument is to remain idle for a prolonged
period (one week or more), it is necessary to perform one of the operations described in
Section 5.7 “Shutting Down the Instrument” or Section 5.4.3 “GENERAL
CONDITIONS Screen.” Even when the instrument is shut down properly, the rotor and
stator may stick.
Use the following procedure to free the 8-port valve.
Procedure
1. Switch OFF the power. Using the provided hex wrench, loosen the coupling
screw.
Coupling screws (2pcs)
Rotation hole
Figure 6.10 Freeing the 8-port Valve
2. Insert a 2.5 hex wrench or 3mm diameter metal rod into the rotation hole
shown in Figure 6.10 “Freeing the 8-port Valve.” Turn the 8-port valve back
and forth until it moves freely.
CAUTION
This procedure requires the use of some force to start the rotation. Use
care to avoid pinching fingers in the mechanism during the operation.
3. After rotating the 8-port valve several times, return it to its original position on
the shaft and retighten the coupling screw. One side of the shaft is flat. Adjust
the 8-port valve so that the coupling screw contacts this flat surface.
WARNING
Major problems will result from the misalignment of the ports of the
8-port valve. Ensure that the orientation is correct.

6.4 Zero Adjustment of the (NDIR) Optical System
6.4 Zero Adjustment of the (NDIR) Optical System

TOCN TOC
Auto zero correction is normally performed on the baseline signal to obtain accurate
peak area measurement even if the baseline is drifting. The time interval between the
beginning and end of peak measurement is excluded from the auto zero procedure. If
the baseline exceeds the auto correction range, NG is displayed in the baseline position
of the READY conditions in the Monitor screen and the READY lamp will not light. In
this case, the instrument is in the wait state and measurement cannot be performed.
Perform zero adjustment of the NDIR optical system using the following procedure.
Procedure
1. Display the MONITOR screen.
2. The NDIR detector is located at the top of the instrument. Push the SW1
switch to the TEST position.
3. While observing the baseline position in the MONITOR (C) screen, adjust the
zero adjustment potentiometers VR1 and VR2 so that the baseline is near 0%.
If the baseline does not adjust sufficiently by turning one potentiometer, use
both. Turning the potentiometer clockwise moves the baseline in the 'plus'
direction. Turn the potentiometer slowly since the display has a short response
time.
4. Position the SW1 switch to the NOR position.
Figure 6.11 NDIR detector
If this optical zero adjustment must be performed frequently (especially if drift is in the
plus direction), the interior of the NDIR cell may be contaminated or corroded. If this
is the case, replace the halogen scrubber and perform appropriate pretreatment
procedures when measuring samples with high acid or salt concentrations. Continuing
to use the NDIR cell in that condition may require replacement of the cell.

anhydride.
WARNING
The lithium hydroxide anhydride fine powder crystals are corrosive
(strongly alkali). Review the MSDS in Section 9.1 “Material Safety
Data Sheets” before handling.
152 TOCN-4110
6.8 B-type Halogen Scrubber
6.8 B-type Halogen Scrubber

The newly available B-type halogen scrubber provides greatly improved halogen
absorption capacity.
Effect
Samples that contain high concentrations of halogens such as chlorine, bromine, iodine
and fluorine, may cause corrosion of the inside of the measuring cell. During the
combustion process these types of samples produce various acids such as hydrogen
chloride and other halogens. These acids are exported from the combustion tube to the
measuring cell and because of their superior oxidation capability may corrode the gold
plating.
0.05 mol/L hydrochloric acid is used In the B-type halogen scrubber. After the
combustion process the sample gas is passed through the hydrochloric acid which
dissolves the iron and chromium components of the stainless steel net to produce iron
chlorides (FeCl2) and chromium chlorides (CrCl2). Because of their superior reduction
capability, the iron and chromium chlorides absorb the chlorine, bromine, iodine, etc.
from the sample gas.
The B-type halogen scrubber has a better absorption efficiency and larger absorption
capacity than the standard halogen scrubber.
Accessories
Description Quantity
Stainless steel net 4 pcs (Only one piece is used at a time.)
Maintenance
Replace the solution in the B- type halogen scrubber every three months with fresh
0.05M hydrochloric acid. The stainless steel net is effective until it is completely
dissolved. Regular examination of the stainless steel net is recommended. Each net is
expected to last for more than six months.

6.9 Multi-Stream Suspended Solids Pretreatment Unit (Option)
6.9 Multi-Stream Suspended Solids Pretreatment

Unit (Option)
This option is displayed in Figure 6.13. Stream selection is performed at the external
multiplexor and only the sample of the selected flow line is introduced into the
pretreatment unit. The sample pretreatment unit consists of 2 cylindrical vessels.
Sample flows from the multiplexor to the sample homogenizer (inner cylindrical
vessel). Stainless-steel mesh (#50) at the top of the homogenizer vessel removes large
suspended particles from the sample before it enters the homogenizer. Blades rotating
at high speed in the bottom of the vessel pulverize the smaller suspended particles that
passed through the stainless steel mesh. The homogenized sample is then sampled for
analysis. The excess sample is discharged from the homogenizer vessel through a drain
valve. Rinse water is forced upward through the homogenizer vessel while the blades
are rotating at high speed, washing the homogenizer blades as well as the stainless steel
mesh. Since the sampling tube and stainless steel mesh are washed with each sampling
sequence, this system does not clog easily. If, however, the samples contain high
concentrations of suspended solids or suspended solids that have a tendency to adhere,
it may become necessary to disassemble and clean the sampling unit.
Disassemble and clean the sampling unit or pretreatment by removing the screws and
connectors. Remove any obstructing particles with a brush.

6.10 Single Stream Suspended Solids Pretreatment

Unit (Option)
This option is displayed in Figure 6.14. Flow line 1 is used exclusively with this
pretreatment unit. The sample passes through a strainer and into the sample
homogenizer unit.
Blades rotating at a high speed homogenize the sample before it is analyzed. The
remaining sample is discharged through a pinch valve. Rinse water is sprayed onto the
strainer from a nozzle. The centrifugal force of the rotating blades washes the strainer
with the rinse water accumulating in the homogenizer. The sample flow rate for this
option is 1 L/min because the sampling mechanism relies on overflow.
Clean the sampling unit by removing the motor connectors and cover clamp. Remove
any adhering contaminants from the strainer, sampling unit and sample homogenizer.

6.11 Backwash Strainer Sample Pretreatment Unit

(Option)
This option is displayed in Figure 6.15. Flow line 1 is used exclusively with this
pretreatment unit. The sample flows into the bottom of the sample adjustment tank
from the overflow. The sampler is filled using air pressure and more intermittent
bubbling is performed through the strainer to prevent clogging. The sampler is
subjected to great pressure during sampling. This forces the sample through the strainer
and into the sampler, where measurement is conducted. The sample flow rate for this
option is 1 L/min because the sampling mechanism relies on overflow.
Clean this sampling unit by removing the (2) butterfly screws and the cap. Use a brush
to remove contaminants adhering to the sampling tube and sample adjustment tank.
Using a brush or ultrasonic bath to remove any adhering contaminants from the

7Special Accessories
Table 2.2 “Special Accessories” displays a list of the various options that may be added
to this instrument to modify the instrument function. Except for high sensitivity
catalyst, special accessories are installed by authorized service engineers. This
instruction manual is limited to descriptions of the functional changes provided with
the addition of the most common special accessories.
7.1 Flow Line Switching Modules
7.1.1 Sampling Pipe Set

There are two types of flow line switching modules available. Choose a module based
on whether suspended particles are present in the sample.
7.1.1 Sampling Pipe Set
This option is appropriate for clean water samples, such a tap water, which contains no
suspended particles, slime, etc. The sample pipe set is available in either a 1- or 2-flow
line configuration. A 1-flow line type configuration may be upgraded to the 2-flow line
type by obtaining the sample flow line addition set.
With the 1-flow line switching option, the sample enters the sampling tube mounted
near the top of the left-side panel (overflow type), then passes through the T connector
and is introduced into the number 2 port of the internal 8-port valve through the flared
tube.
With the 2-flow line switching option, the second flow line is connected to the number
1 port of the 8-port valve, as indicated in Figure 7.1. For that reason, off-line
measurement is not possible with this configuration.

7.1.2 Suspended Particle Flow Line Switcher
This option is designed for particulated and/or slimy sample streams that could cause
clogging of the sample flow lines.
The sample flow path with this option installed is shown in Figure 7.2 “Suspended
Particle Flow Line Switcher.” An external sampling system or “sample thief” performs
the flow line switching. Only the sample of the selected flow line is introduced into the
pretreatment unit. The sample pretreatment unit consists of 2 cylindrical vessels.
Sample flows from the sample thief through a #50 mesh stainless-steel screen to
eliminate very large particles into the inner cylinder of the homogenizer. A mixer at the
bottom reduces the size of many types of particulates and ensures sample homogeneity
prior to measurement. Sample is delivered from this module to the Sample
Pretreatment/Injector System measurement. Excess sample is discharged from the
module through the drain solenoid valve. Wash water is forcefully sprayed upward
through the spinning stainless steel screen and mixing blade. This effectively washes
the screen and sample vessel.
Since the sampling tube and stainless steel mesh are washed with each sampling
sequence, this system does not clog easily. If however, the samples contain high
concentrations of viscous or fibrous particles or suspended solids that have a tendency
to adhere, it may become necessary to disassemble and clean the sampling unit.
Tap water must be supplied as the wash water for the Suspended Particle Flow Line
Switcher. Since water must be constantly supplied the line between the water source
and the instrument water inlet must be capable of withstanding the continuous tap
water pressure of the facility. The user supplies this line. Once the tap water line is
connected, while the source water is OFF, adjust the pressure regulator on the
instrument to 150kPa (1.5kg/cm2). With the water flowing, decrease this pressure to
50-100kPa (0.5-1.0 kg/cm2).
Note: When the typical sample matrix contains excessive quantities of suspended
particles or large amounts of viscous or fibrous particles, some type of sample
filtering may be required before the sample enters the instrument.

7.5 Printer (Thermal)

A thermal printer may be installed with the TOCN-4110, TOC-4110 and TN-4110
enabling continuous printing of on-line measurement results and hard copy output of
each of the displayed screens.
AUTO-PRINT in the ON-LINE MEAS START screen must be set to “ON” to perform
automatic continuous printing of on-line measurement results. Sample measurement
results (numeric values and bar graph) and automatic calibration results (numeric
values only) are continuously printed during measurement.
To print the results of off-line measurement and calibration (manual calibration
conducted from the CALIBRATION START screen), print a hard copy of the
associated screen after measurement is complete. In the PEAK PROFILE(C) or (N)
screen, the entire peak profile will be printed on the hard copy. This is true even when
the peak profile exceeds the time scale on the screen and the peak profile display is
cleared and displayed again with the peak profile started at the left end of the time
scale.

SECTION II PRECAUTIONS TO BE TAKEN IN HANDLING
Do not get in eyes, on skin or on clothing. Wear rubber or neoprene gloves and impervious boots, apron or coveralls, as needed, to prevent skin contact. Avoid
breathing mist. Use only with adequate ventilation; local and/or general exhaust is recommended to keep employee exposure below the Airborne Exposure Limits.
If TLV is exceeded, a full face piece chemical cartridge respirator may be worn, in general, up to 100 times the TLV or the maximum use concentration specified
by the respirator supplier, whichever is less. Store in tightly closed containers, in cool, dry, ventilated area. Protect from physical damage and direct sunlight. Iso-
late from incompatible substances. Protect from moisture. Remove and wash contaminated clothing promptly. Wash hands thoroughly after handling. This sub-
stance is classified as a POISON under the Federal Caustic Poison Act.

SECTION VII HEALTH HAZARD DATA
Symptoms of overexposure: Inhalation: corrosive; can cause coughing, choking, inflammation of the nose, throat and upper respiratory tract. Inhalation of higher
concentrations may cause lung damage. Ingestion: corrosive; swallowing product can cause immediate pain and burns of the mouth, throat, esophagus and gas-
trointestinal tract; may cause nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. Contact with skin: corrosive; can cause redness, pain and severe skin burns; deep ulcers and discol-
ored skin; severe burns and eye damage. Chronic exposure: long-term exposure to concentrated vapors may cause erosion of teeth; long-term exposure seldom
occurs due to the corrosive properties of the acid. Persons with preexisting skin disorders or eye disease may be more susceptible to the effects of this substance.
SECTION VIII FIRST AID
An antidote is a substance intended to counteract the effect of a poison. It should be administered only by a physician or trained emergency personnel. Medical
advice can be obtained from a POISON CONTROL CENTER.
In case of contact: Immediately flush eyes or skin with copious amounts of water for at least 15 minutes while removing contaminated clothing and shoes. Assure
adequate flushing of the eyes by separating eyelids with fingers. If inhaled, remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult,
give oxygen. If swallowed, wash out mouth with water provided person is conscious. CALL A PHYSICIAN. DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING. If conscious, give
large quantities of milk or water. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious or convulsing person. Get medical attention immediately.
SECTION IX SPILL OR LEAK PROCEDURES
Cleanup personnel should wear protective clothing and respiratory equipment suitable for toxic or corrosive fluids or vapors. Isolate or enclose the area of the leak
or spill. Small spills: Flush with water and neutralize with alkaline material (soda ash, lime, etc.). Sewer neutralized material with excess water. Larger spills and
lot sizes: Neutralize with alkaline material, pick up with absorbent material (sand, earth, vermiculite). Provide forced ventilation to dissipate fumes. For disposal,
neutralize with alkaline materials (soda ash, lime, etc.). Dispose in a RCRA-approved waste facility or sewer the neutralized slurry with excess water if local ordi-
nances allow. Reportable quantity (RQ) (CWA/CERCLA): 5000 labs. Ensure compliance with federal, state and local regulations.
