SM5000 Sampling Module - DC Pump Model
1 General Information
1.1 Introduction
1.1.1 The SM5000 Sampling Module - DC Pump Model:
• must be used with an Ultima X, Ultima X5000, or an S5000 Gas Monitor with a digital sensor (available
separately).
NOTE: Does not work with S5000 IR400, passive catalytic bead or metal oxide semiconductor (MOS)
sensors.
• draws a gas sample from the monitored area, through a sample line (sold separately, see Tab. 3 for
details) to the sensor.
• samples areas that are remote, inaccessible, too hot or too cold for direct sensor monitoring, such as:
• ducts carrying combustible or toxic gas
• wet wells, water vapor in the sampling must not condense (RH must be less than 95%)
• printing drying ovens
• blanking or inerting operations
• must be used with a special flow cap to ensure proper sensor sampling (sold separately, see Tab. 3).
A properly-installed unit for a single Ultima X5000 Gas Monitor is shown in Fig. 1. It is also possible for one
Pump Sampling Module to supply sample gas for up to three Ultima X, Ultima X5000, or S5000 Gas Moni-
tors. This procedure:
• is useful when monitoring up to three different gases.
• requires additional Ultima X, Ultima X5000, or S5000 Gas Monitors with individual flow caps.
• is further detailed in chapter 2 "Installation".
When using Ultima XIR or XIR PLUS sensor(s), locate the sensor on the exhaust side of the Pump
Sampling Module (see Fig. 2) to ensure the most accurate readings (the three-way valve from the XIR flow
cap must be installed on the inlet side of the pump). The Pump Sampling Module is not compatible with the
S5000 IR400 sensor.
