Optidew Series User's Manual
An excessively high fl ow rate can:
•
Introduce back pressure, causing slower response times and unpredictable
effects on equipment such as humidity generators.
•
Result in a reduction in depression capabilities in chilled mirror instruments
by having a cooling effect on the mirror. This is most apparent with gases
that have a high thermal conductivity such as hydrogen and helium.

POSSIBLE INJURY! The tubing, valves and other apparatus
attached to this instrument must be adequate for the
maximum pressure which will be applied, otherwise physical
injury to the operator or bystander is possible.
Before disconnecting the instrument from the gas line it
is essential to vent the system to atmospheric pressure,
otherwise severe injury could result.
