Page 3: Operation
When using an impinger, an in-line trap (SKC Cat. No. 225-22 or 225-22-01) is required between the pump and impinger to prevent fumes from accidentally being drawn into the sampler. Failure to use an appropriate in-line trap during impinger sampling voids any warranty. - Page 4 Low Flow Holder connected Ensure that the battery is fully charged and that the pump has run for 5 minutes before to AirChek 52 calibrating. Leave the pump running. Prepare the calibrator (see calibrator instructions). Using flexible tubing, connect the calibrator outlet (suction port) to the pump inlet.
