CMS5000 Operating Manual

CAUTION

If switching from air line sampling to water sampling,
carefully move the purge tube back to the proper inlet.
Placing the sample inlet line in the wrong port will allow
water to be drawn into the CMS5000 and will cause
severe damage to the unit.

The pressure of the sample in the air line must be greater than exhaust of the
CMS5000 but no more than 1 atm. This will prevent any back pressure from
re-entering the sample path and collecting more sample than necessary onto the
concentrator. Sample flow is directional, and when the pressure changes the flow
also changes. The exhaust line is attached to the exhaust port via a compression
fitting (see

Figure 3-14

). The exhaust line should have at least the same internal

diameter as the sample inlet.
