Operation
This section describes how to use the product to take air samples using the minimum of settings. The Apex2
and Microdust Pro have many other menu and settings options and these are described their individual
manuals.
Installation
Cutouts are provided in the foam for the Microdust Pro and Apex2 sampling instruments. Ensure both units
are fully charged up or have new AA cells if required before insertion.
Note:
Ensure the Apex2 and Microdust Pro are held firmly by the Velcro straps provided; otherwise
damage to the instruments could occur.
Connect the Apex2 pump to the sampling spigot as illustrated in Figure 1.
Connect the Microdust probe into the Adaptor (Figure 5). When locked correctly into position, the complete
assembly is prevented from rotating or moving laterally on the Probe (see Figure 4). The body of the probe
should be aligned so that the cable from the probe is aligned as shown in Figure 2.
The enclosure is fitted with purge valve which must be removed during operation (see Figure 3). Failure to
remove will result in pump shutdown errors.
Storage of PUF Filters
The PUF filters should be kept in a clean and preferably air-conditioned environment.
