Page 19: Operating The Pocket Pump In Constant Flow Mode
Operating the Pocket Pump in Constant Flow Mode Constant Flow mode provides compensated flow control for single sorbent tube sampling applications. Ensure that the pump is set to Constant Flow mode before carrying out sampling. 1) Viewing the Run-Time Data Press to scroll through the available run-time data screens: Elapsed run time since last reset in minutes up to 9999 minutes (approximately 1... - Page 20 Operating the Pocket Pump in Constant Flow Mode 2) Setting and Calibrating the Pump Flow Rate Ensure that the pump is set to Constant Flow mode and that the battery is fully charged. Set up the sample train as specified in the sampling method and connect to the pump air inlet port. Connect a suitable calibrated flowmeter (such as a chek-mate or rotameter) to the inlet of the sample train.
- Page 21 An alternative method to Constant Pressure mode for multiple tube sampling is to use a Constant Pressure Controller (CPC - SKC Part No. 224-26CPC-10). The CPC is a device that generates a constant back pressure of 10 inches of water at the outlet of the connected multiple tube holder.

Page 22: Operating The Pocket Pump In Constant Pressure Mode
Operating the Pocket Pump in Constant Pressure Mode Constant Pressure mode provides built in constant pressure control for multiple tube sampling applications. It is recommended to start with a pump back pressure setting of 10 inches of water. Once the pump back pressure is set, the tube flow rates are set using the needle valves built into the multiple tube holder. - Page 23 Operating the Pocket Pump in Constant Pressure Mode 2) Setting the Pump Back Pressure Ensure that the pump is set to Constant Pressure mode and that the battery is fully charged. Set up the sample train as specified in the sampling method and connect to the pump air inlet port. Press [ ] to start the pump running.

Page 24: Through Flow Sampling With The Twin Port Pocket Pump
Through Flow Sampling with the Twin Port Pocket Pump The 210-1003MTX twin port Pocket Pump is designed for through flow applications such as bag sampling. Refer to the pump diagram on page 8 for identification of the inlet and outlet ports. 1) Constant flow mode sampling Constant flow mode compensation performance: The pump flow rate will be within ±5% at flow rates up to 200 ml/min, inlet back pressure up to 20 inches of water and outlet pressure up to 3.0 inches of water... - Page 25 Through Flow Sampling with the Twin Port Pocket Pump Observe the indicated flow rate reading of the flowmeter. Use the and buttons to adjust the pump flow rate up or down, to precisely calibrate the required flow rate. When the flow rate has been satisfactorily calibrated press the button to return to RUN mode.
- Page 26 Through Flow Sampling with the Twin Port Pocket Pump 2) Constant pressure mode sampling With the Pocket Pump set to constant pressure mode it is possible to obtain a stable pump flow rate with variable outlet back pressures (up to 30 inches of water). An adjustable flow restrictor at the pump inlet is required to set the desired flow rate.
- Page 27 The pump run-time data is recorded during the back pressure setting and flow calibration operations. Before starting a sample run reset the run-time data. Contact SKC Limited for advice on specific constant pressure mode sampling applications. www.skcltd.com 210-PMTXM Issue L...
