4 RECOMMENDATIONS
The analyzer should be used in environments where the temperature is between -5°C and +45°C.
When the analysis are completed, before switch the instrument off, remove the probe from the gas
pathway and wait about 30 seconds cleaning the pneumatic circuit from gas.
Do not use the analyzer with clogged filters or filled with humidity.
Before placing the probe in the case, be sure that the probe, the water trap and the hose are clean and
cold.
If you have ordered a double hose sampling probe, insert both connectors to the instrument during the
gas analysis (pay attention to colour correspondence on hose plugs).
To empty the water trap from the condensate water, remove the draining plug. DO NOT OPEN the water
trap. DO NOT leave the water trap without the draining rubber plug (cat. EE650081).
For the best efficiency and accuracy, we suggest calibrating the instrument every year
