Frequently Asked Questions Model 360E Instruction Manual
A: These components are located inside the flow control assembly that is attached to the inlet side of the
sample pump, see Figure 3-3. See Section 11.6.1 for instructions on disassembly and replacement.
Q: How do I set up a SEQUENCE to run a nightly calibration check?
A: The setup of this option is located in Section 7.6.
Q: How do I set the analog output signal range and offset?
A: Instructions for this can be found in Section 6.13.4 which describes analog I/O configuration.
Q: What is the averaging time for an M360E?
A: The default averaging time, optimized for ambient pollution monitoring, is 150 seconds for stable
concentrations and 10 seconds for rapidly changing concentrations; See Section10.5.1 for more information.
However, it is adjustable over a range of 0.5 second to 200 seconds (please contact customer service for
