Figure 6

shows examples of good and bad methods of installing a

sample line into a process pipe.
Notes:

• Keep the sample inlet and drain tubing as short as possible to

minimize lag time of the sample flow.

• Control the flow rate into the instrument with a flow restriction device

on the sample line. Refer to

Specifications

on page 3 for flow rate

specifications.

Note: Flow rates greater than 750 mL/minute will cause the instrument to
overflow into the drain, decrease the performance of the bubble trap and cause
incorrect readings.
