It prevents water and other liquids from contaminating the flow system. Replace the filter when it appears dirty, discolored, or clogged. If a liquid other than water is drawn into the filter, replace the filter as soon as possible. 35-3010RKA-08 Sample-Draw Detector • 3... - Page 8 This causes a downscale reading at the monitor on these channels. The low flow level is factory-set at 0.6 SCFH (±0.2 SCFH). NOTE: There is no low flow indication for the LEL or oxygen channels. 4 • 35-3010RKA-08 Sample-Draw Detector...

Page 14: Installation
NOTE: The sample-draw detector is shipped with the mounting feet “tucked under” the housing to protect the mounting feet during shipment. Slightly loosen the screw that secures one of the mounting feet to the housing, then rotate the mounting foot 180 degrees (see Figure 6). 10 • 35-3010RKA-08 Sample-Draw Detector... -
Page 15: Connecting The Sample Lines To The Sample-Draw Detector
Route the cable or wires in conduit leading from the sample-draw detector to the controller. Connect the drain wire to an available chassis ground at the controller end. RKI controllers typically have a ground stud that can be used to ground the cable’s drain wire. 35-3010RKA-08 Sample-Draw Detector • 11... - Page 16 4/20 F ee db ack LEL (C on trolle r 24 VD C (Controller Transmitter Tra nsm itter 24 VD C Te rm inals) 4-20 ( Fe edba ck) Te rm inals) Figure 7: External (Field) Wiring, Sample-Draw Detector 12 • 35-3010RKA-08 Sample-Draw Detector...
