Sampler Stand Components
A number of internal systems of the Sampler are designed to maintain
acceptable operating conditions within the hardware.
There are three modes of operation for the filter compartment fan: Always
On, Always Off, and Auto.
●
In the Always On mode, the fan is always on until it is turned off
manually.
●
In the Always Off mode, the fan is always off until it is turned on
manually.
●
In the Auto mode, the fan turns on if the filter compartment
temperature is greater than 2 °C above the ambient temperature. The
fan turns off if the filter compartment temperature falls below the
ambient temperature. Auto mode is the default setting.
The sample pump is always running when sampling takes place. If the filter
compartment temperature exceeds 15 °C, and the sample pump is running,
the pump fan in the pump compartment initiates. The pump fan stops
running once the temperature falls below 10 °C. However, the pump fan
will not initiate if the sample pump is not running, regardless of the
temperature measured in the filter compartment.
When the Sampler is turned ON, the sample pump starts automatically. If
the ambient temperature is below 10 °C, the pump will continue running
until the ambient temperature exceeds 10 °C. After instrument start up
when the device is not sampling, the sample pump initiates if the ambient
