5.5 Operating the sample gas pump
DANGER
Toxic, corrosive gases
The measuring gas led through the equipment can be hazard-
ous when breathing or touching it.
a) Check tightness of the measuring system before putting
it into operation.
b) Take care that harmful gases are exhausted to a save
place.
c) Before maintenance turn off the gas supply and make
sure that it cannot be turned on unintentionally.
d) Protect yourself during maintenance against toxic / cor-
rosive gases. Use suitable protective equipment.
The pump will only run after reaching the block temperature.
It is only intended to convey gaseous mediums. It is not suit-
able for liquids.
Operation under primary pressure is prohibited. The flow in-
side the device (optional regulation via bypass or flow meter
with built-in needle valve) should always be at least 50 L/h.
Throttling greatly will shorten the life of the sample gas
pump.
CAUTION
Hot surface
Risk of burns
Housing temperatures may be high during operation.
Allow the unit to cool down before performing maintenance
or repairs.
5.6 Operating the flow metre (optional)
The flow volume of the system can be adjusted using the
built-in needle valve on the flow metre.
Avoid a flow of less than 50 L/min. Throttling greatly will
shorten the life of the sample gas pump.
5.7 Condensate
DANGER
The gas inside the filter, condensate and used filter ele-
ments may be caustic or corrosive.
Sample gas can be harmful.
a) Before maintenance turn off the gas supply and surge
with air if necessary.
b) Exhaust sample gas to a safe place.
c) Protect yourself against toxic / corrosive gas during
maintenance. Wear appropriate personal protection
equipment.
Condensate accumulates during operation. The built-in con-
densate pump transports this to outside through the factory
installed hose. Please note, the hose clamp on the hose must
be open during operation. This requires suitable condensate
collection and disposal. The hose clamp should be closed when
not in use and during transport to prevent the condensate
from accidentally leaking.
BX464004 ◦ 08/2018
CAUTION
Operation in designated position
The unit should only be operated in the designated position.
If this cannot be ensured due to logistics (e.g. transport via
shippers), it's important to completely empty the vessel, as
condensate could otherwise flow back into the gas lines.
