  • Page 9: Information And Safety Instructions For Using The Cooler

    Information and safety instructions for using the cooler Inhalation hazard possible, if using toxic or asphyxiant gases! Warning Purge cooler with inert gas or air before opening! If the cooler is used for toxic gas or asphyxiant (oxygen-displacing) gas, it needs to be purged with inert gas or air before opening.
  • Page 10: Introduction

    Introduction The M&C ECM-ExII gas cooler unit is designed to operate whenever there is moisture interference in the sample gas. Lowering the sample gas temperature to a very low and stable dew point prevents condensate built-up in the analyser and avoids unstable measurements, because of water vapour cross-sensitivity or volumetric errors.

    Description Figure 2 shows the ECM-2G ExII cooler unit Figure 2 ECM-2G ExII The cooler ECM-ExII is also suitable for wall mounting. The depth of the cooler housing is 270 mm [10.63”] without, and 316 mm [12.44”] with optionally mounted peristaltic pumps. The cooler ECM-ExII is conform to the system protection IP20 (EN 60529).
  • Page 15: Function

    Function The M&C gas cooler type ECM-ExII is a compressor cooler equipped with a status alarm for safe and continuous operation. Up to 2 Jet-stream heat exchangers made of Borosilicate glass, PVDF or stainless steel are located in a heat-insulated cooling block, where they are easy to access and to remove. Figure 3 shows a diagram of the heat exchanger function.
  • Page 16: Receiving And Storing Of The Device

    Receiving and storing of the device The ECM-ExII gas cooler is a complete pre-installed unit. Please remove the ECM-ExII carefully from the packaging. Check the scope of the delivery • specified on the delivery note. Please make sure that you have received all items stated on the delivery note.
  • Page 17: Mounting

    Mounting Do not mount or carry out any work at the gas cooler while potentially explosive atmosphere is present. The process and the environment of the cooler needs to be explosion-free (explosion-free zone) during mounting. A zone is declared as explosion-free zone, if it is free of explosive atmosphere.
  • Page 18 Follow these instructions to ensure the adequate sealing of the connections: Borosilicate glass heat exchangers with connections GL 18-6 respectively GL 25-12 (standard) Before assembly, check the GL coupling rings to see if the PTFE/silicon locking rings have been • damaged.

  • Page 21: Closing Down

    Closing down The installation site of the cooler must be frost-free, even when the unit has been switched off! In case of a short-term decommissioning of the cooler no special measures Note are required. In case of a long-term decommissioning, we recommend to purge the cooler with inert gas or air to remove residual condensate entirely from the cooler.
  • Page 22: Adding And Replacing The Heat Exchangers

    Connect the cooler to earth (electrical bonding terminal). The bleeder resistor needs to have an overall value of < 10 Ω. Warning The intervals between servicing are dependent on the process and system conditions in your facility. The facility QA/QC plan should address the frequency for maintenance and should be updated based on your operations.
