Teledyne API T802 Paramagnetic O2 Analyzer Operation Manual

3.3.2.6. CALIBRATION GAS SOURCES
The source of calibration gas is also attached to the SAMPLE inlet, but only
when a calibration operation is actually being performed.
Note Zero air and span gas flows should be supplied in excess of the 120 cm3/min
demand of the analyzer.
3.3.2.7. INPUT GAS VENTING
The span gas, zero air supply and sample gas line MUST be vented (Figure 3-16)
for two reasons: in order to ensure that the gases input do not exceed the
maximum inlet pressure of the analyzer, and to prevent back diffusion and
pressure effects. These vents should be:
At least 0.2m long
No more than 2m long and
Vented outside the shelter or immediate area surrounding the instrument
3.3.2.8. EXHAUST OUTLET
Attach an exhaust line to the analyzer’s EXHAUST outlet fitting. The exhaust
line should be:
PTEF tubing; minimum O.D ¼”
A maximum of 10 meters long
Vented outside the T802 analyzer’s enclosure, preferably outside the shelter
or at least into a well-ventilated area.
