aluminum, or stainless steel. The inlet fitting is located on the side of the sensor
chamber and the exhaust fitting is located on the bottom. Insert the desired length of
tubing into each fitting and tighten the fittings so that the ferrules crimp onto the
tubing.
5. Install appropriate device(s) (pump, aspirator, etc.) to draw sample to the detector.
NOTE: Be sure to use the inlet and exhaust ports as intended to ensure correct sensor
response and to allow any accumulated liquid to drain out the bottom of the flow
through adapter.
6. Calibrate the detector head as described in the attached manual and in the next
section.
NOTE: Calibrate the detector head with the flow through adapter installed to ensure an
accurate reading.
Calibration
A demand flow regulator should be used for calibration.
1. Follow the calibration instructions outlined in the attached detector head manual.
2. When the instructions call for applying gas, connect the cylinder.
• If you are drawing sample through the system, connect the cylinder to the inlet
fitting of the flow through adapter.
• If you are pushing sample through the system, connect the cylinder to the pump
inlet.
3. Perform a calibration as outlined in the attached detector head manual.
4. When the instructions call for removing the gas, disconnect the cylinder.
