Conditioned Sample Gas Used As Reference - Ametek 5000 Manual

For some special applications, we recommend that the sample should also be run
through a contaminant trap and a super-activated dryer. Refer to the supplemental in-
formation supplied with the system to determine if these optional components are to be
used.
Moisture contamination of the dryer(s) can cause incorrect sample moisture data.

To prevent this contamination, never leave either end of a dryer open and exposed to
NOTE
atmospheric moisture.

Conditioned sample gas used as reference

Configure sample system as shown in Figure 3-7a. Standard and optional conditioning
components (dryers, contaminant traps) should be strapped in the upright position to
support beams.

Dryer(s) must be vertical to avoid channeling (voids in the sieve).
