Connecting And Replacing Gas Cylinders - Honeywell GasLab Q2 Manual

10.3. Connecting and replacing gas cylinders

For the correct operation of the GasLab Q2 a gas cylinder with a binary mixture of methane (CH
and carbon dioxide (CO
outlet pressure can no longer be held at a stable level. This will generally take place at around
0.5MPa ≙ 72.52psi ≙ 5bar , depending on the regulator.
Some situations, for example, a verification or a service calibration, make it necessary to connect
further gas cylinders or replace the existing ones.
This work must be carried out according to the steps described here. A suitable pressure reduction
is necessary, if not already existing, to connect the gas cylinder with the GasLab Q2.
Complete the following steps in accordance with national regulations on the basis of the
information in this document. Failure to do so may result in significant destruction of the
device or the system.
