Trimming the Inlet Sampling Tube (See Figure 4)
a. Measure the outside width of the duct.
b. Add 2.25 inches to obtain proper length of tube.
Example: Outside width of duct
c. Measure the sampling tube, starting from the end with the four mounting
holes.
d. Trim tube to the correct length, remove all burrs, and insert a rubber
stopper (Figure 3, Item 9) in the tube.
Installation of the Sampling Tubes
a. Before installing the tubes, cut a
directly opposite the inlet sampling chamber hole in the detector hous-
ing. This will allow the inlet tube to protrude through the duct.
b. Attach brackets (10) to the inlet and outlet air sampling tubes with
screws (11).
NOTE: When attaching brackets, be sure to align tubes properly
(See Figure 4).
c. Install the inlet tube (3) by inserting it through the air sampling chamber
as shown in Figure 3. Face sampling tube holes into the air stream
(Figure 4), and secure to the housing with
d. Install the outlet tube (4) by inserting it into the upper socket of the air
sampling chamber with the scarfed end facing downstream (See Figure
4). Secure the bracket to the housing with an
e. Make sure no sampling holes extend beyond the ductway, that the stop-
per (9) remains firmly in position, and that the duct hole is sealed around
the protruding sampling tube.
Air Duct Sampling Tube Pressure Measurement
The Model PDM-3 Pressure Differential Measuring device should be used
to ensure that the sampling tube pressure differential is within the specified
limits (See TECHNICAL DATA). Qualified personnel should take measure-
ments in accordance with the PDM-3 Instructions, P/N 315-085535.
Add 2.25 inches
Length of sampling tube
The length (2 ft 8.25 in) determines (Table 5 on page 7)
