  • Page 11 Figure 1 - AMETEK 5100P Operating Modes The 5100P can operate either with or without a Sample Panel. The analyzer also offers a direct user interface through the analyzer display, or enhanced functionality via installed application software and your desktop or laptop computer (USB connection). These are covered on the following pages: •...
  • Page 12 (for example, dryers, replacement sensors, etc.), rapid response, fast recovery from an over-range condition, and long life. Within the 5100P, a TDL is used to produce energy at a very specific wavelength which water molecules strongly absorb. The radiant energy produced by the TDL passes through the sample gas, and any water molecules present in the gas stream will absorb a fraction of this energy.
  • Page 13 Concentration Measurements Once the 5100P has been connected to a sample gas supply and turned on, it cycles through a boot-up sequence. When that is complete, the analyzer starts making measurements on the sample gas. The default setting for the 5100P is to display the moisture concentration measurements in units of parts per million by volume (ppmv), with the sample gas dew point (in degrees Celsius) displayed on the second line.

The 5100P is supplied with a Sample Panel, attached to the top of the analyzer, which provides pressure reduction, filtering, and flow control adjustment. A sample gas supply line is connected to the panel, using an 1/8-inch Swagelok®...
  • Page 16 Figure 4 - Analyzer in Vertical Position CAUTION! For Operation in a Hazardous Area: 1. The 5100P must NOT be connected to either a computer via the USB or the battery charger. 2. Protective caps for the charger and USB connectors must be in place for the analyzer to meet the HAZLOC and ingress protection ratings.
  • Page 17 8. Adjust the Flowmeter Valve to set the sample gas flow to between 1 and 2 LPM (see Figure 3 for Flowmeter with Valve location). 9. Once the flow rate of the sample gas is stabilized to 1-2 LPM through the 5100P, the analyzer is ready to measure moisture concentration in the gas stream. See Basic Analyzer Operating instructions on page 20.
  • Page 18 AMETEK recommends a 2-micron particulate filter and a membrane filter capable of removing any liquids, including droplets. Failure to provide a properly conditioned sample gas can result in physical damage to the 5100P and may also result in incorrect moisture concentration measurements.
