Molecular Sieve, 1.25 lb.
Molecular Sieve Repackaging
The Molecular Sieve is originally supplied by PP Systems in tin packaging. After
initial opening, we strongly urge all users to repackage the Molecular Sieve in
small glass containers with a screw top to seal the desiccant from room air. This
desiccant saturates very quickly in room air and if not properly stored it will cause
it to go bad and subsequently affect CO
2
readings and calibration.
To ensure a good seal, we also recommend putting some electrical tape around
the screw top as shown here. If you have any questions, get in contact with PP
Systems.

O Control Columns
There are two columns used for CO
2
and H
2
O control. One column contains soda lime (CO
2
scrubber)
and the other contains Drierite (H
2
O scrubber).
Soda Lime
Soda lime (calcium hydroxide, sodium hydroxide, water) is used to remove CO
2
from air entering the
TARGAS-1. Both self-indicting (white to violet) and non-indicating Soda Lime can be can be used with the
TARGAS-1. Soda Lime cannot be regenerated and should be discarded after exhaustion.

Tip
Always change the molecular sieve at least
once per week when the TARGAS-1 is in use
regardless of operation time.
