6.3.3 Physical conditions for test gases
Principle
Test gases should be fed into the gas analyzer under the same conditions as the sample
gas.
b
When devices are available for sample gas conditioning (e.g. filter): Let the test gases
flow through the sample gas conditioning before reaching the gas analyzer.
b
If a sample gas cooler is used: Observe §6.3.4 (
→
p. 46).
Volume flow
b
Set the volume flow (flow) of the test gases so that it more or less corresponds to the
sample gas volume flow.
Feed pressure
b
Without a sample gas pump: Feed the test gases with the same primary pressure as
the sample gas.
b
With a sample gas pump (option in Gas module): Feed the test gases with low
overpressure (+50 … +100 mbar). Set the overpressure so that the volume flow is as
large as the sample gas volume flow during operation.
NOTICE:
On devices with a sample gas pump:
b
Make sure the feed pressure of the test gases is limited (check pressure
regulator).
Otherwise the fitted sample gas pump can be damaged.
