WARNING: Hot surface - risk of burns
The surface of the cell insulation is hot.
Allow hot components to cool down.
WARNING: Noxious and irritating sample gas
Depending on the sample gas composition, it is possible that the sample gas
contains noxious or irritating components.
Discharge the gas outlets into the open or to an extractor.
Observe information from the plant operator.
NOTICE: Condensate is formed at the sample gas outlet
When the sample gas cools down, it is possible that condensate is formed at
the sample gas outlet.
Lay the sample gas outlet running downwards so that no condensate is
accumulated.
If necessary, provide for a suitable condensate collecting device and
adequate ventilation.
Protect the measuring gas outlet from frost.
