Adjusting purge gas flow rate 
The purge gas flow rate should be set as follows in gas analyzers with the 
housing purge capability:   
Purge gas flow rate at device inlet max. 20 l/h (constant), purge gas positive 
pressure: p
e
 = 2 to 4 hPa. 
For a purge gas flow rate at the device inlet of 20 l/h, the purge gas flow rate 
at the device outlet is approx. 5 to 10 l/h. 
Fidas24: Housing purge during operation 
A part (approx. 600 to 700 l/h) of the instrument air for the air jet injector is 
conducted continuously through the housing as purge air. 
Date and time check 
A correct date and time setting (see page 183) is required for proper opera-
tion of functions such as automatic calibration and logging of error mes-
sages. 
1  Select the Date/Time menu item: 
MENU → Configure → System → Date/Time 
2  Check and, if necessary, correct the date and time. 
NOTE 
The gas analyzer is factory-set to the GMT+1 time zone.
