3.4.1 Connecting the gas outlet
Connect the tube to the gas outlet.
CAUTION: Noxious and aggressive exhaust gases.
Exhaust gases can contain components harmful to health or irritating.
Lead the measuring system gas outlets outdoors or into a suitable flue.
Do not connect the exhaust gas line with the exhaust gas line of sensitive
subassemblies (e.g. cooler). Aggressive gases could damage these subas-
semblies as a result of diffusions.
Observe information from the plant operator.
Lay the exhaust gas line in a suitable manner.
The gas outlet must be open to the ambient pressure; in waste disposal
lines it can be laid with a light partial vacuum.
Do not bend or crimp exhaust gas lines.
Condensate could accrue in the exhaust gas line.
Use a suitable hose line (PTFE) to run the condensate outlet into an open
condensate container or a waste disposal line.
Lay the line so that it always runs downwards.
Keep the line opening free from any blockages or liquids.
Protect the line from frost.
