NOTE 

Please note that heating hoses with 110V and 230V are 
offered.  

► 

Check the voltage supply of the heating hose before 
commissioning. 

► 

You can operate a 230V heating hose with 110 volts, 
but with limited heat capacity. 

 

 

 

DANGER

 

Risk due to improper use  

Risk of death due to electric shock 

► 

Do not operate a 110V heating hose with 230V. 

 

 

See also chapter 18.7 General Instructions for the heated hose 
line, Page 113.
 

3.6.

 

Gas conditioning 

The sucked sample gas is dried and filtered before it is fed to the  
sensors.  
A sample gas cooler with Peltier element is used for drying.  
The condensate liquid appearing in the gas cooler is pumped to the 
condensate outlet by means of a peristaltic pump. The condensate 
forms drops at the outlet of the instrument.  
Optionally, connect a hose (DN 4/6) to the condensate drain.  
The VENT output delivers the sample gas after the analysis stage.  
For subsequent filtering, a round filter is used on the front of the 
analyser. 
 

3.7.

 

Gas supply 

The analyser contains a gas feed pump (diaphragm pump). 
The flow through the gas feed pump is measured and regulated to the 
nominal value by the analyser. The analyser requires a gas flow of at 
least 50 l/h. 
If the pump capacity is not sufficient to reach the flow of the nominal 
value, an alarm is issued. 

 

ATTENTION

 

When measuring with coiled heated hose line, the hose 
line is destroyed due to strong heat development. 

► 

Roll out the heated hose line completely for each 
measurement.
