MAINTENANCE
EMPTYING AND CLEANING THE IN-LINE WATER TRAP
The water trap should be checked and emptied on a regular basis. Water vapour will
condense and gather in the probe line this may move suddenly to the trap when the probe
is moved. Care should be taken at all time.
Emptying of the water trap is detailed below :-
Carefully remove the end cap from the in-line housing. Dispose of the condensate in a
suitable drain, care must be taken as it could be acidic. If condensate spills onto the skin
or clothing, clean off immediately using fresh water, seek medical advice if problems occur.
CHANGING THE PARTICLE FILTER
This is a very important part of the analyser and should be changed regularly. It prevents
dust and dirty particles entering the pump and sensors and hence causing damage. The
filter MUST be changed when it appears discoloured.
Remove the end cap from the filter housing. Carefully remove the paper filter element and
dispose of it. Clean the inside of the filter housing with a suitable soft cloth. Insert a new
filter element onto the spigot on the filter end cap and carefully insert it into the filter body.
