    2. TSP HEAD & HEATED INLET CLEANING A TSP head should be installed on all heated inlets at factory and while installed in the field, these need to be periodically cleaned. The time interval between cleaning varies depending on the application and location of the device.
  • Page 7: Flow Rate Calibration

    3. FLOW RATE CALIBRATION DX II FLOW RATE CALIBRATION Attach a 0.4-5L/m rotameter (320-4A5) to the inlet of the AirMetER-AX, the flowmeter should indicate 2L/m ± 5%. Should this be out of tolerance, ensure there are no leaks and that there is pressure when blocking the heated inlet. Manual adjustment of the pump flow rate may be completed to achieve the flow rate as depicted below.

    40-105mm in diameter. An adjustable spanner or flat- blade screwdriver may be utilised to either tighten or release the pipe clamp to suit the intended structure diameter. Care should be taken during installation to ensure the AirMetER-AX is level and firmly secured. Figure 4.1 – Mounting Brackets...
  • Page 9: Location & Mounting Of Monitor

    LOCATION & MOUNTING OF MONITOR Air-Met Scientific recommends the monitor is pole or tripod mounted in an open area, free from buildings and other obstructions that may have an influence on measurements. Figure 4.3 – External and Mounting-Point Dimensions (mm)
