3000 Micro GC Operating Manual

Vaporizer accessory:

mounting brackets.

1

If the Heated Vaporizer for LPG sampling is not installed, install it as instructed
in

section 5.1.6, Installing Heated Sample Introduction Accessories, on page

5-17

.

WARNING

The LPG sample is stored at high pressure. Do not
expose the sample vessel to excessive heat or flame.

WARNING

Vent the high and low pressure exhausts to a safe
environment, such as a fume hood or dedicated exhaust.
When 3000 Micro GC used in a vehicle, vent the high and
low pressure exhausts outside of the vehicle and away
from any sources of ignition.

CAUTION

The sample to 3000 Micro GC must be relatively clean
and dry. While the 2 micron filter will remove many
particulate contaminants, samples containing aerosols,
excessive amounts of particulate matter, high
concentrations of water, and other contaminants can
damage 3000 Micro GC.
