The needle assembly and orifice can be removed and replaced without valve disassembly or disruption of any fluid tubing.
Bottle Assembly
Maintenance
Needle Valve
Any blockages normally can be cleared by fully opening the valve. Care must be taken to ensure that temperature and pressure
limits are not exceeded during this process.
Valve Packing
Occasionally during initial startup or restart of the sample panel, the low pressure/high pressure inlet isolation valve packing may
leak. If this occurs, remove the handle, tighten the packing nut, and then replace the handle. If the packing continues to leak or
other valves or o-rings require maintenance, please see the Parts & Accessories list in this manual.
Sample Cooler
For installation and operating instructions for the sample cooler, please see the Installation, Operation & Maintenance manual for
Sentry sample coolers.
Carbon Canister
An optional Sentry carbon canister is available. The carbon canister assembly is designed to absorb hydrocarbon gases vented
from Sentry manual low-emission samplers.
The gas vent of the sampler panel is connected to the inlet of the carbon canister assembly. The gases then pass through a volume
of activated carbon, where hydrocarbons, such as benzene, are absorbed. Often, there are specific gases, such as H
S – hydrogen
2
sulfide – that also are carried in the vented gas. To remove these, specially designed products such as impregnated activated
carbon are used.
Both activated carbon and impregnated activated carbon have a finite ability to remove hydrocarbons and other gases. The life of
the product is dependent on concentrations and volumetric flow of the gas. An optional "tell tale" assembly can be provided with
the carbon canister assembly to provide a visual indication of when the carbon canister assembly requires recharging. The carbon
canister assembly is designed for easy recharging. Instructions are below.
Carbon Canister Recharging
1. Remove clamp from carbon canister, allowing the container to be removed from the base assembly.
