Page 4: Section 1: System Description
Section 1: System Description Function and Theory The High Vacuum Sampler is an air-sampling device that uses a compressor to draw air from a sampling source and convey that sample into sealable sample bags. When an external 12 VDC power source connects to the unit, the compressor is capable of producing a vacuum of up to 27 in-Hg. - Page 5 Figure 1-2 Figure 1-3 – Example of ALTEF 1 Liter Bag Envirotecnics Tel: +34 872 080 542 envirotecnics@envirotecnics.com www.envirotecnics.com...

Securely plug the circular plug connector on the opposite end of the cable to the corresponding receptacle on the face of the controller. Turn on the High Vacuum Sampler briefly and verify its operation. Place your thumb over both ports: Air should be blowing out the AIR OUT port and vacuum should be present at the VACUUM IN port. -
Page 8: Section 3: System Operation
Attach all tubing to the appropriate ports and proceed with collecting air samples. When operating the High Vacuum Sampler the vacuum gauge should never exceed -25 in Hg. Should the gauge ever hover between -22 and -25 in Hg, it would mean there is a significant clog somewhere along the input line from the sample source, or the vacuum at the source is greater than the High Vacuum Sampler’s potential. -
Page 9: Section 4: System Maintenance
Unit must be returned to Geotech Environmental Equipment for any service. In order to ensure a long service life, keep the High Vacuum Sampler clean. Often a soft, damp cloth can be used to remove dust and dirt from the exterior surfaces of the enclosure. In... -

• If the 15 Amp circuit breaker is tripped, push to reset. If it trips again, call Geotech Service at 1-800-833-7958 to arrange for the equipment to be sent back to a factory authorized repair location. - Page 11 If there is vacuum then check the tubing between the VACUUM IN port and the sample source for cuts, kinks and holes. If there is no vacuum then call Geotech Service at 1-800-833-7958 to arrange for the equipment to be sent back to a factory authorized repair location.
