Section 2: System Installation
Installing the High Vacuum Sampler
1.
Verify that t
he power switch is in the “OFF” position.
2.
Plug the DC power input cord into a fuse protected 12V lighter receptacle on a
negatively grounded system or plug the optional AC power cord with 12VDC
adapter into a 110VAC power source. If the unit is wired directly to a 12V battery,
make sure to connect the positive (red) alligator clip to the positive (red) battery
terminal and connect the negative (black) alligator clip to the negative (black)
battery terminal.
3.
Securely plug the circular plug connector on the opposite end of the cable to the
corresponding receptacle on the face of the controller.
4.
Turn on the High Vacuum Sampler briefly and verify its operation. Place your
thumb over both ports: Air should be blowing out the AIR OUT port and vacuum
should be present at the VACUUM IN port. Use the System Troubleshooting
procedures in Section 5 when there is no air flow or vacuum response on the
gauge.
5.
Attach an air hose to the sample source and the other end to the VACUUM IN port
on the sampler. Next, connect an air hose to the AIR OUT port and the other end to
the sample bag.
The High Vacuum Sampler is ready to collect the sample.
Verify the 12VDC system to be used is rated and fuse protected for
operation at 15 amps continuous operation. Failure to verify system
rating could result in damage to equipment. Over-heated wiring
and other materials or components in contact or near by the power
delivery system could pose a potential fire or burn hazard.
