Appendix B
Setting-Up
The setup of the Environmental Enclosure is an important part in allowing
reliable and accurate sampling of aerosols in a wide range of conditions. TSI
cannot ensure accurate measurements if any of the components are set up
incorrectly. Damage to the enclosure or its components can result if these
procedures are not followed.
WARNING
The DUSTTRAK monitor is not rated for intrinsic safety. The
DUSTTRAK monitor, with the Environmental Enclosure, must
never be operated under conditions where there is a risk of fire
or explosion
Caution
The enclosure is designed to be water resistant to rain or spray.
It is not designed to be waterproof when immersed. Setting it in
a pool of water will result in flooding the inner compartment with
water. This will severely damage both your DUSTTRAK monitor
and battery pack. Do not set the Environmental Enclosure in
water!
Installing the Aerosol or Respirable Aerosol Inlet
There are two inlet assemblies, either of which may be stored inside the lid
of the Environmental Enclosure
, allowing ambient aerosols to be sampled
efficiently in a wide range of conditions. Proper installation into its sampling
position ensures that the D
USTTRAK monitor measures an accurate ambient
aerosol mass concentration. Follow these instructions to install either of the
aerosol inlets:
• Hold the inlet assembly by the knurled section on the tube and remove it
from the holding bracket by unscrewing it (see Figure B-3).
Caution
Always hold the inlet assembly by the knurled portion of the
tube. Do not twist on the inlet assembly cap.
• Carefully slide the inlet through the upper mounting bracket and remove
the inlet from the box.
• Remove the Inlet Transport Plug from the top of the box.
