Connecting the Condensation Water Drain
Tube
Significant moisture condensation occurs only if the system is water-
cooled. Connect the condensation water drain tube to the outlet
situated on the right-side panel of the DMP501.
1.
Connect the silicone tube to the metal tube protruding from the
right side of the DMP501 Dewpoint Sensing Unit.
2.
The tube end must be placed at least 300 mm below the sensing
unit bottom level, in a drain or in a small vessel where the
condensed moisture can be safely drained. The amount of
condensed moisture is small, typically tens of milliliters per 24 h
of operation.
WARNING
Do not assemble the instrument in a location where condensed water
dripping out of the system could cause a hazard, such as above high-
voltage power supplies.
