6.2.2 Inserting Tubes into Their Holders

1.

Check that the flowmeter used is operating at the correct rate by

using a spare sampling tube

2.

Break off both ends.
A tube cutter is available from Casella CEL.

3.

Place one end in the tube connected to the pump, the other end

connects to the flowmeter.
To determine which way round the tube should go, look for the arrow

painted on the side. The arrow indicates the direction of flow and

must point towards the pump.

4.

Using a Dry Flow flowmeter or Bubble flowmeter, adjust the flow

rate according to the instructions, to suit the specific application.

With the flow rate set, remove the tube from the tube holder and replace

with a clean one, making sure that the arrow points towards the pump.
When sampling is complete, the sealing caps must be replaced before the

tube is sent for analysis.
