  • Page 14: Prerequisites For Installation

    Installation PROTOC 200 Prerequisites for installation Location The equipment is not designed for outdoor use. The equipment should be installed as close as possible to the loca- tion where the sample is taken to avoid any changes to the sample en route to the analyzer and to minimize the inlet lag time.

  • Page 18: Sample Conditioning

    Each individual installation may require its own unique sample processing system. Ideally, the sample intake into the PROTOC 200 at the sampling lo- cation will be many times larger than the intake actually required for measurement. This serves to shorten the time the sample takes to reach the analyzer (lag time), i.e.
