5-26 Electrostatic Classifier Model 3082 and SMPS Spectrometer Model 3938
Gas Tab
The temperature and pressure displayed in gas properties are read from
the internal sheath flow temperature and pressure sensors. The Mean Free
Path and Gas Viscosity are calculated using these measurements based
on default gas properties for air. To manually override the internal
measurements of the classifier, or to edit the gas properties, follow these
instructions:
1. Touch the Gas tab on the Properties screen. The temperature and
pressure are updated every second unless Manual Input is selected.

2. To enter in sheath flow temperature and pressure manually, touch the
Manual Input checkbox. The allowable temperature range is 273.15 to
323.15 K (0 to 50°C), and the allowable pressure range is 70 to
120 kPa.
