Sentry Sample Sequencer 6 Controller 33
Appendix A: Recommended Piping
Maintain proper sample conditioning and ow control in order to obtain representative samples. The Electric Power
Research Institute (EPRI) guidelines for representative sampling recommend maintaining constant and continuous
sample ow in sample lines. In addition, it is recommended that the sample be cooled to a temperature of 77 °F (25 °C)
prior to analysis.
 NOTE
Some analyzers may recommend a dierent sample temperature be used to accelerate the analysis process.
Appropriate sample coolers or heaters may be required. Consult the pressure and temperature specications for
your specic analyzer and sampling system. Figure A-1 shows the recommended sample conditioning piping and
instrumentation diagram (P&ID) when switching streams with the Sample Sequencer 6.

Appendix B: Typical Batch Type Analyzer Wiring
The Sample Sequencer 6 may operate with a Hach Series 5000 analyzer. The Series 5000 instruments operate in Batch-
mode style and require the appropriate conguration for use with the Sample Sequencer 6. Hach 5000 analyzers have
special features that provide a contact closure at the end of the batch. This is called the “Mark End of Measurement”
contact closure. The contact closure causes the sample sequencer to advance to the next sample point. See “Batch
Mode” on page 27 for more information.
Figure B-1 illustrates how to connect the Sample Sequencer 6 to a Hach Series 5000 analyzer. The Hach 5000 analyzer
must be congured properly to operate with the sequencer. The analyzer must be programmed to use relay #3 and
relay #4 for System Alarm and End-of-Measurement contact closure indications, respectively. Consult the Hach analyzer
manual for information about conguring the System Alarm to relay 3. The following procedure describes how to
