Instruction Manual MM850481 ed.01 4.1.2 Water trap & line filter The gas flows through an external combined water trap and line filter to avoid the presence of condensation and suspended solid particles in the analysis se ction of the instrument.
Instruction Manual MM850481 ed.01 N OTE : T O OBTAIN A N ACCURA TE MEASURE IT IS RECOMMENDED TO WAIT 3/5 MI NUTES . Toxic gas sensor can be present a ±2% drift and a long resumi ng time it an excessive (>150% of F.S.) gas concentration is applied.
Instruction Manual MM850481 ed.01 The color of the spot on the filter is compared with a gr aduated (from 0 to 9) reference scale and it is called “smoke index”. You can type in the instrument up to 3 smoke index values; the analyzer calcul ate the average value and can print these values on the report.
Instruction Manual MM850481 ed.01 5 RECOMMENDATIONS The analyzer should be used in environments where the temperature is bet w een -5°C and +45°C. When the analysis are complet ed, before switch the instrument off, remo ve the probe from the gas pathway and w ait about 30 seconds cleaning the pneumatic circuit from gas.
