Sample Cell Installation
PN 13123 Remote Mounting Assembly |
For best results, the sensor should be mounted directly in the measured gas line. This will ensure that it remains in a low-dew atmosphere which will decrease the measurement response time. The sensor is fitted with ½” Male NPT threads. If the sensor is not going to be mounted directly in the gas stream, it should be installed in the Remote Mounting Assembly (SSi Part Number 13123), which can be purchased separately. Although this installation does allow for some design flexibility, it is important that only stainless steel tubing and fittings are used to carry the sample gas to the sensor. When installing the unit, verify that all fittings are tight, since any leaks will cause inaccurate readings.
During the operation of this unit, sample gas will constantly be flowing through the sensor and out of the vent. Depending upon the type of gas being sampled, appropriate safety precautions should be taken for proper venting of the sample gases after they exit the sampling assembly.
In the event that a sample pump is required, it should be mounted after the sensor to not contaminate the sample prior to measurement. |
