2.1. Product Description The GilAir Plus is an advanced personal air sampling pump system available in three models: a basic model, a datalogging pump (DL) model, and standard temperature and pressure (STP) model. The STP model corrects the display flow rate and air volume to standard conditions of temperature and pressure.
Plus Air Sampling Pump – Operation Manual ® Gilian GilAir Page 2.2. Pump Kit Descriptions Kits are available in one, three and five pump configurations, with power cords in US, Euro and UK versions. A matrix chart for the available kits are provided below.
Page Plus Air Sampling Pump – Operation Manual ® Gilian GilAir SECTION THREE: Set-Up 3.1. Preparation The package includes the pump, Dock, Dock power supply, and a line cord. The Dock serves as the charging base for all models and the communications Dock for the datalogging and STP models.
Plus Air Sampling Pump – Operation Manual ® Gilian GilAir Page Dock position determination: When starting up on a Dock, the system pauses briefly to let the Dock provide the Dock position for use with the PC App. If no position is available after 45 seconds, a message appears asking the user to reseat the Dock.
3.4. Power Options The GilAir Plus comes standard with a rechargeable nickel metal hydride (NiMH) battery pack. The unit is charged through the Dock that is included with all starter kits. An optional alkaline battery pack (P/N 783-0013-01-R) is available that allows the use of over-the-counter AA batteries.
4.1. Overview The GilAir Plus has the capability of generating and controlling flow over the range of 20 cc/min to 5100 cc/min in two flow ranges, 20-445 cc/min, and 450-5100 cc/min, that are selectable using a 2 mm or 5/64 inch hex key (provided with the pump). The actual flow is measured and controlled by the pump’s internal processor.

Plus Air Sampling Pump – Operation Manual ® Gilian GilAir Page 4.8. Flow Set (cc/min) Flow Set allows the flow rate at which the pump will operate in constant flow control mode to be set. The allowable range is 20 cc/min to 5100 cc/min. Flow rates between 20 cc/min and 445 cc/min require the flow control valve to be set for low flow operation (Lo indicator is displayed in the bottom status line).
Page Plus Air Sampling Pump – Operation Manual ® Gilian GilAir The illustration below shows the flow control valve in between the Hi and Lo flow positions, where the display shows Err, indicating an error. The pump will not operate unless the flow control valve is in the correct Hi or Lo position for the corresponding flow rate setting.
Gilian GilAir Page The GilAir Plus has a Pre-Cal/Post-Cal mode (See Section 5.3. ) accessible through the Set-up menu. This mode will record a Pre-Cal/Post-Cal value for each sample accessible through the PC interface and upon pump data review. Pre-Cal and Post-...

5.7. EN13137 The GilAir Plus has two fault detection modes, normal and EN13137. When EN13137 is enabled, a flow control fault will occur when the flow rate falls to zero for more than 120 seconds as specified in the EN/ISO13137 standard. Restart will not be attempted with this option.
SmartCal Automatic Calibration GilAir Plus has an optional automatic calibration capability called SmartCal. Select an air flow calibrator and connect it to the Dock using the appropriate communications cable. When active; Pre, Post and flow calibration can be performed automatically through the Dock.
The tubing setup is the same as a manual calibration (See Section 4.9.3. ). Using the SmartCal feature requires the GilAir Plus pump to be connected to the Dock with the cable to the calibrator plugged in.
