WARNING! To avoid the risk of electric shock and fire, the following safety instructions must be observed and the guidelines followed. The specifications must not be exceeded, and the device must only be applied as described in the following. Prior to the installation and commissioning of the unit, the installation guide must be GENERAL examined carefully.
LGS-1 Liquid and Gas Sample Pump Section 1: LGS-1 Sample Pump Overview DESCRIPTION The LGS-1 Sample Pump is a pneumatically operated positive displacement pump designed to transfer samples of liquid or gas into a vented sample receiver or into a pressurized cylinder. The sampling cycle begins with a signal being sent from the controller circuitry to the solenoid which diverts instrument or plant air to the sample pump drive piston.
0.25 cc to 1.25 cc for liquid applications. The default factory setting for sample size is 0.5 cc at 300 psi using gas. Calibration is available when operating conditions are supplied by the customer. If an application requires sample volumes outside the standard ranges, contact Sensia.
LGS-1 Liquid and Gas Sample Pump Section 3: LGS-1 Sample Pump Installation AIR SUPPLY The LGS-1 sample pump is actuated by an air supply. In gas applications, the line pressure is often sufficient to actuate the pump. But in liquid applications and some low-pressure gas applications, air must be supplied externally.
Section 3: LGS-1 Sample Pump Installation Figure 2: Pump actuation (air) pressure chart TUBING CONNECTIONS Tubing arrangements will vary, depending on the product sampled (gas or liquid). At a minimum, ¼-in. stainless steel tubing will be required to connect the air supply from the controller to the sample pump. A ¼-in.
LGS-1 Liquid and Gas Sample Pump FAST LOOP CONSIDERATIONS Under some flow conditions, a fast loop plumbing arrangement may be preferred to ensure that only fresh liquid flow is sampled. This configuration requires an orifice plate, flow straightener, or other flow obstruction in the pipeline to cause a small differential pressure to ensure that the sample probe collects fresh fluid with each sample grab.
Section 4: Setting Sample Size Section 4: Setting Sample Size Sample size is set by adjusting the knob at the top of the sample pump to a predetermined height (“h”) above the flat surface of the pump. The height measurement required directly corresponds to the sample size desired.

LGS-1 Liquid and Gas Sample Pump 2. Locate the desired line pressure in the chart “CC” column of the Gas Measurement chart and note the corresponding height (h) value. Find the value (h) that corresponds to the desired sample size and line pressure.
Section 5: LGS-1 Sample Pump Maintenance Section 5: LGS-1 Sample Pump Maintenance SAMPLE PUMP COMPONENTS Refer to Figures 6 and 7 as well as Tables 1 and 2 when performing the procedures in this section. The pump is essentially maintenance-free. Change O-rings annually under routine operating conditions. If operating in a severe environment, inspect O-rings more frequently and replace, as necessary.
LGS-1 Liquid and Gas Sample Pump Bodily injury could result. If you cannot evacuate the sample chamber gases after repeated attempts, contact Sensia for further instruction. HOUSING DISASSEMBLY 1. To continue disassembly of the pump, remove the four (4) screws (item #21) from the purge valve (item #35).
Section 5: LGS-1 Sample Pump Maintenance 4. Carefully remove the sample chamber assembly (item #23) and the seat assembly from the inlet body. a. To accomplish this, use a flat punch and gently apply pressure to the check poppet (item #11) stem. b.
LGS-1 Liquid and Gas Sample Pump 4. Install the seat (item #2*) into the purge valve (item #1*). 5. Install the bonnet nut (item #3*) into the purge valve (item #1*). 6. Install the handle (item #7*) and the screw (item #8*) to the stem (item #6*). 7.
Section 5: LGS-1 Sample Pump Maintenance 7. Remove the set screw and adjustment knob to place the washer (item #3) and nut (item #2) on the adjustment screw. Replace the set screw and adjustment knob on to the adjustment screw. 8.
