A8 OPTIONAL GAS PROBE ACCESSORY
A8.1 Overview
The gas probe accessory enables you to accurately pinpoint where gases will be
sampled.
Refer to Figure A4. The accessory consists of the removable protective tip (1, only
supplied with the 25 cm Probe accessory), the probe (2) and handle (3), an optional
filter (4), and a coiled sample pipe (5) which is terminated by an outlet connector (6).
A8.2 Preparing for use
If the gas probe is not already assembled, simply push-fit the components together as
shown in Figure A4.
A8.3 Using the probe
Refer to Figure A4. When you want to use the gas probe accessory during gas
sampling:
1. Fit the outlet connector (6) to one of the following:
• The sample gas inlet on the Multi Purpose (see Figure 1)
• The sample gas inlet on the flowmeter, if fitted (see Figure A2)
• The sample gas inlet on the sample conditioning panel (see Figure A3), using
the catchpot inlet adaptor (7).
2. Place the end of the probe (1) where you want to sample gases.
A8.4 Additional maintenance
If your gas probe accessory has an optional filter:
• When necessary, replace the filter element, available as a spare: see Section A8.5.
• When necessary (for example, if it is damaged), replace the filter assembly,
available as a spare: see Section A8.5.
