  • Page 12: Connecting The Sample Lines To The Sample-Draw Detector

    1/4” O.D. rigid polypropylene, Teflon, or flexible polyurethane tubing may be used. RKI Instruments, Inc. recommends using either 1/4” O.D. x 1/8” I.D. or 1/4” O.D. x 0.170” I.D. tubing based on your length requirements. See “Specifications” on page 1 for maximum tubing lengths based on tubing size.
  • Page 13: Wiring The Sample-Draw Detector To A Controller

    Push 1/4” O.D. rigid polypropylene or rigid Teflon sample tubing into the fitting until it stops. Flexible polyurethane tubing may be used with an appropriate insert. RKI Instruments, Inc. recommends using either 1/4” O.D. x 1/8” I.D. or 1/4” O.D. x 0.170” I.D. tubing based on your length requirements.
  • Page 14 Connect the wires to the applicable detector/transmitter terminal strip at the controller as shown in Figure 5. Refer to the controller operator’s manual and the controller detector head specification sheet for the 35-3001A-02 for detector/terminal strip connections specific to the controller.

    If the fail condition continues, replace the sensor(s) as described in “Replacing Components of the Sample-Draw Detector” on page 14. If the fail condition continues, contact RKI Instruments, Inc. for further instruction. Slow or No Response/Difficult or Unable to Calibrate Symptoms •...
  • Page 18: Replacing Components Of The Sample-Draw Detector

    If you cannot set the correct flow rate, check the sample line for obstructions or kinks. If the calibration/response difficulties continue, replace the sensor as described later in this section. If the calibration/response difficulties continue, contact RKI Instruments, Inc. for further instruction. Replacing Components of the Sample-Draw Detector This section includes procedures to replace the oxygen sensor, amplifier, hydrophobic filter, and particle filter.

  • Page 22: Calibration Frequency

    Although there is no particular calibration frequency that is correct for all applications, a calibration frequency of every 3 months is adequate for most oxygen sample draw detector applications. Unless experience in a particular application dictates otherwise, RKI Instruments, Inc. recommends a calibration frequency of every 3 months for the oxygen sample draw detector.
  • Page 23: Setting The Zero Reading

    Remove the voltmeter leads from the amplifier test points. Close the housing door. Follow the instructions in the controller’s operator’s manual to exit the calibration mode. Store the components of the calibration kit in a safe and convenient place. 35-3001A-02 Oxygen Sample-Draw Detector • 19...
