  • Page 12: Operating Principle

    S8000 Integrale User’s Manual INTRODUCTION Operating Principle The system operates on the chilled mirror principle, whereby a gas sample is passed into the sensor housing and fl ows over the surface of the chilled mirror contained within. At a temperature dependent upon the moisture content in the gas, and the operating pressure, the moisture in the gas condenses out on the surface of the mirror.

  • Page 62 S8000 Integrale User’s Manual GOOD MEASUREMENT PRACTICE Sample Tubing Length The sample point should always be as close to the critical measurement point as possible, in order to obtain a truly representative measurement. The length of the sample line to the sensor or instrument should be as short as possible. Interconnection points and valves trap moisture, so using the simplest sampling arrangement possible will reduce the time it takes for the sample system to dry out when purged with dry gas.
