PCS.base
1 Introduction
1.1 Intended Use
The respective operating conditions greatly impact an analysis instrument working correctly. Since in addition to the gas com-
ponent to be analysed, sample gas often contains large amounts of moisture and dirt particles, the sample gas must be condi-
tioned accordingly. Especially with frequently changing sampling points this often causes problems. Accurate gas analyses in
changing locations require compact gas conditioning systems. PCS.base was developed for these applications.
DANGER
Potentially explosive atmosphere
Explosion hazard if used in hazardous areas.
The device is not suitable for operation in hazardous areas with potentially explosive at-
mospheres.
Do not expose the device to combustible or explosive gas mixtures.

1.4 Product description
The low weight and small dimensions of the system are ideal for e.g. service engineers using sample- or comparison measure-
ments.
A carrying bag provides reliable protection from the weather and mechanical damage to the product and allows for convenient
system transport.
The base version of the gas condition system consists of a gas cooler with condensate trap, a gas pump and filter. For more ac-
cessories and options please refer to the table in the data sheet.
The sample gas is cooled to the preset dew point (factory preset 5 °C) regardless of the ambient temperature. This safely falls be-
low the dew point and moisture in the sample gas is separated as condensate. A safety circuit only starts the gas pump once the
operating point of the cooler has been reached. The optional moisture detector communicates with the sample gas pump,
switching it off in the event of water burst or cooler overload.
