30 | 5000 Single-Point Moisture Analyzer
For some special applications, we recommend that the sample should also be run
through a contaminant trap and a super-activated dryer. Refer to the supplemental in-
formation supplied with the system to determine if these optional components are to be
used.
Moisture contamination of the dryer(s) can cause incorrect sample moisture data.
To prevent this contamination, never leave either end of a dryer open and exposed to
atmospheric moisture.
Conditioned sample gas used as reference
Configure sample system as shown in Figure 3-7a. Standard and optional conditioning
components (dryers, contaminant traps) should be strapped in the upright position to
support beams.
Dryer(s) must be vertical to avoid channeling (voids in the sieve).
