The measurement setup for CITREX H3 has an impact on flow measurement. To
obtain results that are as accurate as possible, comply with the instructions in this
section. It is important to ensure that the tubing in the measurement setup does not
have any radii, kinks or dents. You are also recommended to always use the dust
filter included.
The measured gases must be free of oil, grease and dust.
The general measurement setup applies to gas flow measurement. The RT019 filter
included and a short piece of tubing must be used. This ensures laminar flow to the
flow sensor unit. The filter also prevents dust, oil and grease from contaminating the
CITREX H3 measuring instrument and thus prevents discrepancies in measurement
results. The measurement setups shown below are dependent on the direction of
gas flow being measured.

Figure 22: General measurement setup
The measurement setups listed below are unsuitable and produce inaccurate meas-
urement results. Kinks, tees and angle pieces should be avoided in the flow channel.
They cause turbulence in the gas being measured and hence inaccurate or incorrect
measurement results.
Bad setup:
Kinks, tees, angle pieces at the device inlet
