NSTALLATION
The Model 10410 thermoelectric sample cooler should be installed away from heat
sources in a well ventilated area of an instrument rack or enclosure.
Sample tubing connections to the Model 10410 depend on the heat exchanger
material of construction. A stainless steel fitting is used on the first heat exchanger
(sample line inlet) if the heat exchanger is stainless steel or Durinert
®
coated
stainless steel, otherwise a Kynar
®
fitting is used. All other inlets and outlets are
Kynar
®
standard compression type tube fittings with Teflon
®
ferrules. PVDF
(Kynar
®
) heat exchangers use all Kynar
®
standard compression type tube fittings
with Teflon
®
ferrules. Perma Pure cannot warrantee against damage to the Peltier
elements or heat exchangers if our supplied Kynar
®
tube fittings are not used.
The inlet and outlet tubing of all metal or Kynar
®
heat exchangers is 1/4" NPT; the
user should always use the compression type fittings provided for that purpose by
the factory. The inlet of the Channel 1 heat exchanger uses a 3/8” tube x ¼” MNPT,
tube connector fitting to mate with most standard 3/8” sample lines.
The condensate drain connections are Kynar
®
elbows, 3/8” MNPT x 1/4” barbed
tube fittings. An automatic condensate drain, Perma Pure Model 3KPB-003 dual-
head peristaltic drain pump is recommended for water removal. This pump uses
size 17 tubing.
CAUTION: Do no reduce the size of the condensate tubing since doing so restricts
water flow resulting in water slip (moisture carryover) in the sample.
CAUTION: If using a stainless steel sample line, place 2 inches of Teflon
®
tubing in
between the exchanger inlet fitting and the heated line. This prevents the sample
cooler from heat sinking the incoming heated line, which adds undue load to the
cooler.
