Carefully unpack the Instrument from its shipping container and inspect the contents for damaged or missing items. If the Unit appears damaged or something is missing, contact the carrier and Setra Systems immediately. Please save the container and packing material in case you must return the Instrument.
2-7 Laser Safety Information The Remote Particle Sensor is a Class 1 laser-based instrument. •During normal operation, you will not be exposed to laser radiation. •Precaution should be taken to avoid exposure to hazardous radiation in the form of intense, focused, invisible light. •Exposure to this light may cause blindness.

3-3 Installation Please follow the steps below to prepare the instrument. 1. Locate where instrument(s) are going to be mounted. 2. Attach the Optional Isokinetic Inlet Joint Tube to the top of the inlet. Figure 3-5 Attach Optional Isokinetic Inlet to Joint Tube 3.
4. Please refer to section 3.4 and 3.5 for communication and wiring details. 5. Attached the sensor to an external vacuum pump system with a tube at the bottom of the instrument. Add a negative pressure gauge to the other end of the tube. If the pressure is more than -15 in.Hg (-50kPa) vacuum.
3-6 Multiple Sensor Installation Figure 3-6 Typical Multiple Sensor Installation Diagram In a multiple instrument configuration, the wires should be connected from adjacent instruments at the terminal block connector in order to create a bus and keep stub lengths to a minimum. 3-7 Cautions During Setup 1.
ISO 21501-4 states that the recommended calibration interval of an LSAPC (light scattering airborne particle counter) is one year or less. For calibration, please contact Setra Systems or an authorized distributor. • Please check the negative pressure at the tube (where it connects to the outlet of the unit) to ensure that the vacuum pump is providing enough negative pressure to the unit.
