FIRST RESPONDER - USER HANDBOOK
C-2
The Small Plastic Probe (Part No. 12480) is generally used
with the Probe Handle Assembly (Part No. 12481),
incorporating both Cotton and Hydrophobic Filters to
prevent the ingress of water or dirt. The Sample Line
(Part No. 12712) connects the probe handle to the
instrument and allows the pump to draw the sample into
the instrument analysing chamber.
The probe is manufactured from a plastic material which
is flexible and extremely robust. The probe’s wall thickness
provides the flexible strength to withstand bending around
a 50cm radius or sustaining damage to, or collapse of, the
sampling path if accidentally stood on, by the operator.
Note: The Sample Line, Probe Handle Assembly and Filters
are all supplied with the instrument. A longer probe, if
required, is available as an accessory. Refer to Chapter 7
ACCESSORIES.
The instrument is enabled to allow the user to start and
stop a counter to facilitate barhole probing. Refer to
Barhole Probing Counter paragraph in Chapter 3
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS.
