Gas connection
Sample gas
Reference gas
Identifier of the gas connections
The identifier of the gas connections is imprinted as numbers 1 to 4 on the module plate.
Sample gas preparation
The sample gas must be conditioned to prevent contamination of the parts through which it
flows. We recommend the following minimum configuration:
• Gas sampling device with filter
• Sample gas cooler
• Analyzer filter, medium pore size <10 µm
Depending on the characteristics of the sample gas it may be necessary to provide additional
equipment, for example, an external gas suction pump, washing bottle or pressure reducer.
In the case of toxic, aggressive and/or flammable gases ensure that the components are
suitable for use. They must be approved for the respective application.
