Sample System

Sample Tap

To ensure the sample is free of contaminants from the walls of the sample pipeline, we
recommend a probe extending into the pipe. The probe tip should be cut to a 45° angle
and located about 20-30% into the pipe ID. Mount the probe through a ball valve (shut-
off valve) on a horizontal section of the pipe as shown in Figure 3-6.
The sample gas, or gases to be monitored by the analyzer may be toxic, corrosive, and
!
/ or flammable. AMETEK strongly recommends that trained service personnel use
proper protective equipment including air breathing apparatus, eye protection, and
CAUTION
skin protection whenever the gas line(s) or Field Unit are accessed for installation or
maintenance.
