Note
Shutting off the sample gas inlet and outlet
If you shut off the sample gas inlet and outlet, make sure that the reference gas can escape,
for example, by a 2-way valve at the sample gas outlet.
Do not switch off the reference gas! Aggressive sample gases can destroy the microflow
sensor.
The following graphic shows a standard assignment of the gas connections on the field module.
Other types of connection or assignments are possible depending on the order.
The inlets and outlets of the sample and reference gases are factory-fitted with a flame arrester
in this standard assignment.
