Product Overview The HV-RW are samplers intended for outdoor use. These products sample suspended dust in the open face, and provide quantitative analysis of dust concentration and composition. High-accuracy flow rate control is provided by a differential pressure detection system, and instantaneous and cumulative flow rate values are displayed digitally.

Installation Conveyance Be sure to check that the hopper is fastened as next sentence. Ensure that the hopper is fitted into the hopper top stage fixing block and that the hole is sealed with the sliding cover. Then tighten the hopper fixing screw. Check that the quick clamp knobs are securely fastened on the screws at the quick clamp knob storage area.
Installation Procedure Two or more people are required to move this product. Install the product on a flat surface. Avoid high moisture, high humidity sites, sites in proximity to flames or heat sources, and extremely dusty sites. Be sure to use a rope to keep the product from tipping over. The product is provided with 8 anchor bolt holes at the bottom of the legs, and 4 rope fixing holes at the top of the legs (rotation axis part).
Wiring Methods Use in Japan Use a single phase 100 V power supply (90 V to 132 V can be used.). Be sure to ground this product. When using this product outdoors, ensure that the electrical outlet and/or extension cable are waterproofed.
Attaching the Shuttle Tube Mount a ferrule gasket on the shuttle tube. Then attach the shuttle tube on the flow meter suction port, and fasten it with a clamp. Place a ferrule gasket on the shuttle tube. Be careful of the shuttle tube orientation. If it is attached upside down, the urethane holder inside might fall, and there is a risk that the glass will break.
Attaching the Filter Case Ensure that a filter is mounted in the filter case. Then put the filter case to the hopper. Mount washers on the perpendicular bolts. Then attach the quick clamp knobs and fasten them. If a quick clamp knob is fastened too tightly, it may end up spinning freely, and there is a risk of damage to the quick clamp knob and the perpendicular bolt.
Tube Through pipe: HV-RW for dust collection standard accessory Shuttle tube: HV-RW for dioxins standard accessory. It contains a urethane holder (glass tube), containing a 90 mm diameter polyurethane foam that is used to perform dioxin sampling. Filter 8" × 10" filters can be mounted.
Touch Panel This product is equipped with a touch panel liquid crystal display. Operations can be performed by touching the display directly. Press the [START/STOP] button to start sampling. Touch keys are arranged at various points on the respective touch panel screens. Operations can be performed by touching them.
Main Screen When the power is first turned ON, "System Initializing" will be displayed for 5 seconds. The screen then changes to the following screen: Model name Serial number Software version If you touch the screen while this screen is displayed, or simply wait approximately 5 seconds, the system will proceed to the main screen, shown below.
Sampling Method Setting the Flow Rate Touch the numerical region of the flow rate settings directly to proceed to the flow rate setting screen, where the flow rate can be set. In the flow rate setting screen, press the numerical keys to enter the desired flow rate.
Setting the Operation Start Timer Press the characters in the operation start timer area to switch between the delay timer and the clock timer. The delay timer, shown onscreen as DELAY , starts the operation after a certain period of time has elapsed. The clock timer, shown onscreen as CLOCK , starts the operation at a specific hour and minute.
Page 20
Press the numbers next to CLOCK to proceed to the start time setting screen, where the starting time can be set. If the numbers next to CLOCK show a time earlier than the present time, when the numbers are pressed, the next full hour after the present time will be shown, and the system will proceed to the start time setting screen.
Setting the Operation End Timer Press the characters in the operation end timer area to switch between the sampling timer and the volume timer. The sampling timer, shown onscreen as TIMER, ends the operation after the configured period of time has elapsed. The volume timer, shown onscreen as VOL., ends the operation when the configured cumulative flow rate has been reached.
Page 22
Press the numbers next to VOL. to proceed to the ending cumulative flow rate setting screen, where the ending cumulative flow rate can be set. Entering 0.0 m will engage manual operations, in which pressing the [START/STOP] button will stop operations. The system will automatically stop however when 99,999.9 m is reached.
Starting Operations In the main screen, confirm the setting conditions. In the example in the figure below, the set flow rate is 1,000 L/min, operations start 1 hour later, and operations continue for 8 hours. Press the [START/STOP] button to start operations. The [START/STOP] button must be pressed to start operations, even if the timer has been set.
During manual operation, as soon as the [START/STOP] button is pressed, the blower will run, and the sampler will start operating. When the timer has been set, the following screen appears, and the system remains in standby until the configured date and time. During standby, the message "WAIT" will blink onscreen.
Error Displays If an error occurs during operation, this product will log the error (See page 32.). Unless the error involves the blower however, the blower will not stop, and operation will continue. If an error occurs, it will be indicated onscreen.

Power Outages If a power outage occurs during operation, the product will turn off and stop operating. The remaining sampling will continue after power is restored. E.g.) If an 8 hour sampling period has been set, and a 1 hour power outage occurring during this time, sampling will be delayed by 1 hour, but the full 8 hours of sampling will be completed.
Mode Display In the main screen and other screens, press MODE to view environmental information. The displayed items will differ before and after blower operation. Prior to Operation (before the [START/STOP] button is pressed) Press MODE to toggle in sequence between the screens shown below. Press to return to the main screen.

An optionally available standard flow meter can be attached to the sampler's intake side. Calibration at the work site is simplified by using Sibata OF-1S orifice flow meter (sold separately) as the standard flow meter (Rectangular adapter for orifice flow meter is required.
Atmospheric Pressure Calibration Calibration can similarly be performed with respect to the atmospheric pressure sensor. Prepare a standard pressure gage, remove the atmospheric pressure sensor tube, and connect the gage. 1. In the calibration mode, set the atmospheric pressure span value to 1.000, and return the zero value to 0.000.
