Vacuum sampling system
The ACM 150 monitor samples up to 40 areas, which are scanned and analyzed
sequentially, as described in the Air sampling system. The main assemblies are:
Bypass Venturi Pump
Draws flow through sample tubes and bypasses the flow
to exhaust to provide a constant flow of fresh samples to
Gas Cell Venturi Pump
Evacuate the sampled air from the gas cell after it is
analyzed.
Boost Pump (Mechanical)
Fill the evacuated gas cell with fresh sampled air for each
Sample Valve Assembly
Valves installed in the 10-port sample manifolds (up to 40)
that switch in sequence as the ACM 150 monitor scans the
Cycle Valve Assembly Group of 6 valves that control the flow through the gas cell
Backup Exhaust Pump
Usually idle, this mechanical pump backs up the venturi
pumps to provide operation without CDA.
