    Replace the filter when it appears dirty, discolored, or clogged. If a liquid other than water is drawn into the filter, replace the filter as soon as possible. 35-3010A-12 Sample-Draw Detector • 7...
  • Page 8 S and CO channels. This causes a downscale reading at the monitor on these channels. The low flow level is factory-set at 0.6 SCFH (±0.2 SCFH). NOTE: There is no low flow indication for the oxygen channel. 8 • 35-3010A-12 Sample-Draw Detector...
  • Page 9: Detection System

    The transmitter type selector is near the bottom left corner of the amplifier. It is to the left of the detector terminal strip and below the span pot. The transmitter included with the sample-draw detector is designed for use with RKI’s oxygen and toxic gas sensors. The transmitter type selector determines for which sensor the amplifier is...

  • Page 21: Adjusting The Low Flow Setting

    Verify that the low flow alarm is 0.6 SCFH (±0.2). Repeat steps 3 and 4 if necessary. Use the flow adjust potentiometer (VR1) to set the flow to 1.2 SCFH. Make sure the sample-draw detector’s Fail light is off. 35-3010A-12 Sample-Draw Detector • 21...
  • Page 22: Calibration Frequency

    Although there is no particular calibration frequency that is correct for all applications, a calibration frequency of every 3 months is adequate for most sample draw detector applications. Unless experience in a particular application dictates otherwise, RKI Instruments, Inc. recommends a calibration frequency of every 3 months for the sample draw detector.
