    Easidew PRO I.S. User Manual OPERATION OPERATION Measurement and Configuration The Easidew PRO I.S. can be configured to provide an output of 4...20 mA (2-wire connection) for the following: Dew point -110...+20°C (-166...+68°F) Moisture content in gas 0...3000 ppm Moisture content in liquids 0...3000 ppm The Easidew PRO I.S.
  • Page 18: Figure 9 Indication Of Dead Space

    Easidew PRO I.S. User Manual OPERATION Minimize Dead Space in Sample Lines: Dead space causes moisture entrapment points, increased system response times and measurement errors, as a result of the trapped moisture being released into the passing sample gas and causing an increase in partial vapor pressure. Deadspace Indication of Dead Space Figure 9...
  • Page 19: Good Measurement Practice

    Easidew PRO I.S. User Manual GOOD MEASUREMENT PRACTICE GOOD MEASUREMENT PRACTICE Ensuring reliable and accurate moisture measurements requires the correct sampling techniques, and a basic understanding of how water vapor behaves. This section aims to explain the common mistakes and how to avoid them. Sampling Materials –...
  • Page 20 Easidew PRO I.S. User Manual GOOD MEASUREMENT PRACTICE Temperature and Pressure effects As the temperature or pressure of the environment fluctuates, water molecules are adsorbed and desorbed from the internal surfaces of the sample tubing, causing small fluctuations in the measured dew point. Adsorption is the adhesion of atoms, ions, or molecules from a gas, liquid, or dissolved solid to the surface of a material, creating a film.
  • Page 21 Easidew PRO I.S. User Manual GOOD MEASUREMENT PRACTICE • Accentuate adsorption and desorption effects on the gas passing through the sampling system. • Allow pockets of wet gas to remain undisturbed in a complex sampling system, which will then gradually be released into the sample flow. •...
  • Page 22: Maintenance

    Easidew PRO I.S. User Manual MAINTENANCE MAINTENANCE Calibration Routine maintenance of the Easidew I.S. is confined to regular re-calibration by exposure of the transmitter to sample gases of known moisture content to ensure that the stated accuracy is maintained. Calibration services traceable to the UK National Physical Laboratory (NPL) and the US National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) are provided by Michell Instruments.
