Introduction

The Ultima X Sampling Module - Aspirated Model:

• must be used with an Ultima X Gas Monitor (available separately)
• draws a gas sample from the monitored area, through a sample
line (available separately) to the Ultima X Gas Monitor sensor
• samples areas that are remote, inaccessible, too hot or too cold for
direct sensor monitoring, such as:
• ducts carrying combustible or toxic gas
• wet wells
• printing drying ovens
• blanking or inerting operations
• comes equipped with:
• necessary flow components (excluding gas sample line) to
properly deliver gas samples to the Ultima X Gas Monitor
• a special flow cap for use on the Ultima X Gas Monitor to
ensure proper sensor sampling.
A properly-installed unit for a single Ultima X Gas Monitor is shown in
FIGURE 1-1. It is also possible for one Aspirated Sampling Module to
supply sample gas for up to three Ultima X Gas Monitors. This
procedure:
• is useful when monitoring up to three different gases
• requires additional Ultima X Gas Monitors with individual flow caps
• is further detailed in Section 2, "Installation."

Unpacking Unit

Carefully unpack your Aspirated Sampling Module (and Ultima X Gas
Monitor, if also newly purchased) from shipping carton(s). Compare
