Electric shock hazard. The power supply can overheat when the time between pump cycles is too
short.

Make sure that the pump cycle time will not cause the power supply to overheat. Refer to
on page 15.
Connect the sampler to a battery or to an AC power supply. Refer to the illustrated steps that follow.
Calculate the pump cycle time
The pump must stay off for a minimum time period between sample cycles so that the power supply
does not overheat.
1. Calculate the total amount of time that the pump will run continuously during a sample cycle.
Include all stages: pre-purge, intake rinse, sample, sample retries and post-purge.
2. Find the minimum amount of time that the pump must stay off between sample cycles from
.
3. Make sure that the pacing or time interval in the sampler program lets the pump stay off between
sample cycles for the minimum amount of time.
