INTRODUCTION The portable gas conditioning and sampling system PSS-10/1 has been especially designed so that precise gas analyses can be carried out in any place and at any time. The entire gas conditioning system is housed in a compact and robust aluminium framed case which ensures that the components can be removed easily, and gas analysis carried out quickly, safely and with a minimum amount of maintenance.
TECHNICAL DATA Gas conditioning unit Version PSS-10/1 Sample outlet dew point Range of adjustment: +2 to +15 °C [35.6 to 59 °F], factory setting: +5 °C [41 °F] Dew point stability At const. conditions: < ±0.1°C [±0.18 °F] Sample inlet temperature **Max.
DESCRIPTION Sample GL 18 Power Sample Condensate GL 25 Figure 2 Design of the portable conditioning and sampling system PSS-10/1 All the components of the gas conditioning system can be easily removed from the portable case. The door of the case can be opened by moving the toggle-type fasteners ...

Options The gas conditioning and sampling system PSS-10/1 consists of standard one gas-measuring outlet terminal. An additional flow meter (DK800R), with needle valve, can be fitted to this terminal, whereby the adjustment of the terminals is carried out in accordance with the specified volume flow rate (see 3.). In order to protect additionally connected analysers against fluid irruption, and increase the operational safety of the entire system, we recommend that a fluid alarm sensor LA 1S be installed.
RECEIPT OF GOODS AND STORAGE Heavy device! Risk of injury when handling heavy equipment. C A U T I O N ! Do not lift, move or carry the device without help. A second person is required to lift, move or carry the device. The portable gas conditioning and sampling system PSS-10/1 is a completely pre-fitted unit.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS Heavy device! Risk of injury when handling heavy equipment. C A U T I O N ! Do not lift, move or carry the device without help. A second person is required to lift, move or carry the device. When in use, the gas conditioning system case should be placed in an area well away from any heat emitting sources in order to prevent damage caused by an accumulation of heat.
SUPPLY CONNECTIONS 12.1 TUBE CONNECTIONS Do not switch tube connections; connections are marked accordingly. After all lines have been connected, the tightness must be checked. N O T E ! Figure 3 shows the possible medium connections. These are located in the right-hand side of the gas conditioning case at the rear in a specially immersed assembly frame.

Install the sample gas tubes and the condensate tube as follows: 1. Remove the union nut from the clamping ring tube fittings by turning it anti-clockwise. The nut should be removed from the thread with great care so as to ensure that the loose sealing ring in the nut is not lost. 2.
12.2 ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS Wrong supply voltage can damage the equipment. When connecting the equipment, make sure that the supply voltage is identical with the W A R N I N G ! information provided on the model type plate! For the erection of power installations with rated voltages up to 1000V, the requirements of VDE 0100 and relevant standards and specifications must be observed! N O T E !
COMMISIONING Observe the facility and process-specific safety measures before commissioning. Carry out the following steps before initial commissioning: 1. Place the cold appliance plug, which is delivered with the mains supply cable, into the cold appliance plug socket. 2. Connect the heated sample line (option). Check the temperature at the temperature controller when operating the W A R N I N G ! sample gas conditioning unit with a heated sample gas line.
CLOSING DOWN The area where the gas conditioning unit is placed must remain frost- free even when the unit is switched off. N O T E ! No special measures are to be taken in the event of short-term shutdowns of the gas conditioning system. In the case of long-term shutdowns, for example after a completed series of measurements, it is recommended to purge the gas conditioning system with fresh air or inert gas.
MAINTENANCE Before the maintenance work is carried out, it is necessary that the specific safety procedures pertaining to the system and operational process be observed! Dangerous voltage! W A R N I N G ! It is necessary to take the equipment off the mains before any assembly, maintenance or repair work is carried out.
