Connecting the Sample Lines to the Model 1017-01
1.
Attach 1/4 inch O.D. rigid sample tubing to the INLET fitting.
CAUTION:
If you use flexible sample tubing (vinyl or polyurethane for example), use an
appropriate metal insert to seal the connection between the tubing and the INLET
fitting. See the Parts List for an example of an appropriate metal insert.
2.
Place the opposite end of the tubing at the sampling area.
CAUTION:
Avoid loops or slumps in the incoming sample line. To reduce response time, keep the
incoming sample line as short as possible.
3.
Install an appropriate line filter and flowmeter in a convenient location on the inlet
line. The 33-3050RK line filter with flow indicator is recommended for verifying there
is sufficient flow.
4.
Install an appropriate valve before the flowmeter to allow adjustment of the sample
flow to 1.0 LPM (a flowmeter with a built in valve may also be used).
5.
Attach 1/4 inch O.D. rigid sample tubing to the EXHAUST fitting.
6.
Route the opposite end of the tubing to an open area where the sample can safely
disperse.
