Calibration
Figure 4-2 shows one way in which the LI-6262 may be set up with an
external pump providing air flow through the reference cell circuit. The
arrows indicate the direction of air flow through the analyzer. It is
recommended that the pump be placed inline between the
FROM
CHOPPER
fitting and the scrubber tube assembly, rather than between the scrubber tube
and the
REFERENCE IN
fitting. Pulling air from the scrubber tube assembly
could cause damage to your pump and/or analyzer if, by chance, the paper
filter disc in the scrubber tube was torn, causing magnesium perchlorate to be
pulled into the system.

Using the 6262-04 Reference Pump
The 6262-04 pumps approximately 0.22 to 0.5 liters of air per minute, which
is sufficient to purge the reference cell. The 6262-04 flow rate can be
adjusted with the screwdriver included, by turning the
Flow Adjust
potentiometer clockwise to increase the flow, or counterclockwise to
decrease the flow.
Please note also that there is no internal filter ahead of the reference cell.
Make sure that the paper filter disk in the soda lime/desiccant tube is not
torn, as magnesium perchlorate can be forced into the reference cell,
damaging the analyzer. Alternatively, you can place an external filter
between the soda lime/desiccant tube and the
Reference In
fitting.
■
A Phillips head screwdriver is required for installation. Follow these
steps to install the 6262-04 Reference Pump:
1.
Remove the soda lime/desiccant tube mounting clips from the back of
the LI-6262.
