  • Page 9: Introduction

    INTRODUCTION The gas conditioning CSS-VC unit, either for 19 "- or wall mounting or as a portable unit in carrying case, is a fully pre-assembled compact continuously-operating gas purification system, which, depending on the design, can supply a sample gas volume of max. 1 x 250 Nl/h (CSS VC1) or 2 x 150 Nl/h (CSS- VC2).
  • Page 10: Application

    APPLICATION With the CSS-VC, fully pre-installed gas conditioning systems are created for continuous use, which can be integrated perfectly into analytical systems. The compact design makes few demands on space. The gas conditioning systems are operational within minutes. This renders time-consuming and expensive procurement of individual components and small parts and their assembly unnecessary.

    or faults, plain text information appears on the display and is also indicated by LEDs (e.g. cooler within the setpoint range and no other alarms - green LED, flow alarm (option) - yellow LED, temperature ±3° C [±5.4 °F] from the setpoint and humidity alarm (option) - red LED). The fine filter downstream of the cooler (different filter types available) provides for the necessary separation of solids.
  • Page 18: Installation Instructions

    INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS So that the unit is safe and operates reliably, it should be mounted horizontally and without vibration. Only then is proper separation and drainage of the condensate in the heat exchanger of the cooler ensured. Notice The mounting of the gas conditioning unit should take place away from heat sources and be freely ventilated so that there can be no disruptive accumulation of heat.
  • Page 19: Supply Connections

    SUPPLY CONNECTIONS Figure 3 Connections in the connection panel of the CSS-VC.. Depending on the version of the CSS-VC, instead of the 11 and 12-pin connector for single alarms, mA output cooler temperature and external sample gas pump control, a 6-pin connector may also be present for group alarm (see Figure 4 ).
  • Page 20: Hose Connections

    12.1 HOSE CONNECTIONS The connection of the sample gas input, depending on the connection type, is directly on the heat exchanger or on the clamping plate. Do not confuse the hose connections. They are marked appropriately. After connecting all the lines, they should be checked to ensure there are no leaks.
