  • Page 5 Safety instructions Follow these basic safety procedures when mounting, starting up or operating this equipment: Read this operating manual before starting up and use of the equipment. The information and warnings given in this operating manual must be heeded. Any work on electrical equipment is only to be carried out by trained specialists as per the regulations currently in force.
  • Page 6 Used terms and signal indications The ‘Danger’ warning sign indicates that death, serious injury and/or significant material damage will be the consequence, if the appropriate precautions should not be taken. Danger The ‘Warning’ warning sign indicates that death, serious injury or damage to property may occur if the relevant precautionary measures are not observed.
  • Page 7 Container contains gas under pressure! Risk of the container bursting! Risk of injury from flying objects! Check the pressure of the container and adjust to atmospheric pressure. Only open containers carrying atmospheric pressure. Use personal protective equipment (PPE). Hot surface! Risk of burns from touching the surface! Do not touch the surfaces which are marked with this warning sign.
  • Page 8 Application The Peltier gas sample cooler type ECP1000/2000/3000 is used in analyser sample system design to reduce the dew point of wet gases to a level that is stable and low. Sample gas cooling prevents subsequent condensation in the analyser. The stability of the dew point is also extremely important at it helps to prevent water vapour cross sensitivity and volumetric error, especially in infrared analysers.
  • Page 9 Function of the M&C Jet-stream heat exchanger The coolers ECP 1000/2000/3000 with special design for analysis technique are prepared for maximum flow rates of 350 l/h. The Jet-Stream heat exchangers made of Duran glass, optional PVDF or stainless steel are located in a heat insulated cooling block.

  • Page 12 The gas coolers ECP1000/2000/3000 have been specially developed for the analysis technology. All ECP1000/2000/3000 gas coolers are available with Duran® glass, PVDF or stainless steel 316Ti jet stream heat exchangers. The ECP1000 cools a gas path with a maximum gas flow of 150 l/h. The ECP2000 is equipped with two heat exchangers.
