Making Gas Connections
Prepare for Gas Connections
Remove the red plastic shipping cap from the Hg vapor trap (scrubber).
Remove any 1/16” or 1/8” VICI plugs and 1/4” VCR cap from the rear
panel. Remove all other shipping caps immediately prior to connection of
gas supplies.
Connect Carrier Gas (Actuator Gas Supply)
The ta3000 analyzer uses a chromatographic carrier gas that is also used
internally as actuator gas. Matching the carrier gas to the sample will
prevent upsets caused by the elution of the extraneous balance peak. See
gas specifications for Carrier Gas on page 14, Specifications for details. The
instrument connection is made at the “CARRIER” 1/16” VICI port on rear
panel. Pressurize external line to 80 psig (Minimum 70 psig, Maximum 90
psig).
Connect Sample Gas
The ta3000 analyzer can be used for process or single gas sample analysis.
On-line process sample line should be connected to the “SAMPLE IN”
1/16 “ VICI fitting on the rear panel. Optimal results are achieved with
constant flow rates (20-100 sccm).
