8.8.3 How to use a temperature probe (optional)
The temperature probe enables the field technician to measure the temperature of the
gas within a sample point. The GEM5000 gas analyzer uses the temperature of the gas
to give more accurate flow measurement readings as part of the instrument calculation.

Figure 31—Temperature Probe Use
Instructions for use:
1) The temperature probe reading is taken along with the flow measurement reading.
2) The analyzer must be at the ‘Main Gas Read Screen’.
3) Attach the temperature probe to the middle connector ‘D’(refer to 4.4 – Instrument
connection points).
4) Insert the temperature probe into the sample point (well device) at the same time
as you attach the sample tube to the sample point (two sample points are required
for the well).
