2.2 Mounting/Siting
When installing the instrument the following points must be taken into account:
• Analyzer should be placed in an environment with minimal dust, moisture and
variation in temperature (20-30°C for U.S. EPA designated range)
• For best results analyzers should be located in a controlled environment with
temperature and humidity controlled (air conditioned shelter) set to 25-27°C
• Whether in rack or placed on bench instruments should not have objects
placed on top of or immediately next to (touching) casing
• Instruments should be placed with easy access to front panel (instrument
screen/USB flash) and to the back panel (Communications suite/pneumatic
connections)
• It is recommended that sample line be as short as possible and/or a heated
manifold be used for sampling (minimizing moisture condensation in sample)
• Do not pressurize sample line under any circumstances. Sample should be
drawn through instrument from the atmosphere. This should be done either by
and internal pump if installed or by an external pump connected to the exhaust
port of the analyzer
• The power on/off switch is accessible from the rear of the instrument only. DO
NOT mount such that the power on/off switch is inaccessible.
