  • Page 7: Product Overview

    Product Overview The HV-CW 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.

  • Page 10: Installation

    Installation Conveyance Always move the canopy, main unit, and folding stand separately. Moving the product in the assembled state could cause damage. Confirm that four quick clamp knobs and two mini-knobs are securely fastened in the canopy. Always check the following to ensure the hopper is fastened to the main unit. Ensure that the hopper is fitted into the hopper top stage fixing block and that the hole is sealed with the sliding cover.
  • Page 11: Assembly And Installation Procedure

    Assembly and Installation Procedure Be sure to move the product disassembled into three sections. 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. 1. Place the folding stand in position. With the bracket backstop oriented toward the back, unfold the stand until the wires are taut and then spread open the brackets slightly.
  • Page 12 4. Install the mini-knobs. Remove the two mini-knobs from inside the canopy and screw them into the holes on the side of the brackets to securely fasten the main unit to the folding stand. Be sure to use a rope to keep the product from tipping over. Use the handles to secure the rope.
  • Page 13: Wiring Methods

    Wiring Methods Insert the metal connector plug on the power cord into the metal connector jack on the back side of the main unit. Make sure the connector keyway is properly aligned. Then secure the plug by rotating the outer ring. Use a single phase 180 V to 264 V power supply.
  • Page 14: Attaching The Shuttle Tube

    Attaching the Shuttle Tube Remove the protective cap from the flow meter suction port and place a ferrule gasket. Then place the shuttle tube on the port and secure them with the clamp. Place a ferrule gasket on the shuttle tube. Be careful of the shuttle tube orientation.
  • Page 15: Attaching The Filter Case

    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.
