2.13 Gas
Connection
To ensure that the sample gas is properly
conditioned a sampling system might be
required.
Contact Michell Instruments if you wish to order
a suitable sampling system.
Sample gas connections are made via the gas input and gas output ports located on
the back panel (XZR400A1), bottom panel (XZR400A2), side panel (XZR400A3) or front
panel (XZR400A4) of the analyzer.
Both the input and output gas connections are 1/8” stainless steel Swagelok
®
couplings.
NOTE: To facilitate ease of connection to the port, at least 75mm (3") of the
tubing coming out of the gas inlet port must be straight.
The method of connecting to the gas inlet and gas outlet ports is as follows:
1.
Connect the gas source from the sample system to the Swagelok
®
fi
tting
at the inlet port on the instrument using 1/8” stainless steel tubing.
Tighten the
fi
tting as much as possible by hand and tighten again with a
7/16”
fl
at wrench (approximately 1¼ turns).
2.
Connect the gas outlet port in a similar manner to that described in
Step 1 using 1/8” stainless steel tubing.
If you undo the fi tting again and reconnect it, fi rst tighten up by
hand and then tighten using a 7/16” fl at wrench with no more
than a 1/8 turn.
DO NOT OVER-TIGHTEN.
NOTE: Maximum sample pressure is 2 barg (29 psig).
NOTE: Sample is vented to atmosphere. Depending on the location of the
analyzer it may require a vent line to a safe location that is freely ventilated.
