MAINTENANCE

9.1

Emptying and Cleaning the In-line Water Trap

The in-line water trap should be checked and emptied on a regular basis. Water
vapour will condense and gather in the probe line. This may move suddenly to the
trap when the probe is moved. Care should be taken at all times.
Emptying of the water trap is detailed below :-
Carefully remove the end cap from the in-line housing. Dispose of the condensate in a
suitable drain, care must be taken as it could be acidic. If condensate spills onto the
skin or clothing, clean off immediately using fresh water, seek medical advice if
problems occur.
9.2

Changing the Particle Filter

This is a very important part of the analyser and should be changed regularly. It
prevents dust and dirty particles entering the pump and sensors and hence causing
damage. The filter MUST be changed when it is discoloured.
Remove the end cap from the in-line filter housing. Carefully remove the paper filter
element and dispose of it. Clean the inside of the filter housing with a suitable soft
cloth. Insert a new filter element onto the spigot in the filter housing and carefully
replace the end cap.
