Figure 2-4: Flow Diagram

The Model 3010P sample system is designed and built to ensure that

the oxygen concentration of the gas is not altered as it travels through the
sample system. The sample encounters almost no dead space. This mini-
mizes residual gas pockets that can interfere with analysis at low oxygen
levels.

The metal restrictor upstream from the cell helps manage the flow

through the system (1 SLPM at 20 psig for nitrogen). It is corrosion resistant.

The sample or calibration gas flowing through the system is monitored

by a flowmeter downstream from the cell. The sample system for the stan-
dard instruments incorporates

1/4

inch tube fittings for sample inlet and outlet

connections on the Gas Control Panel. For metric system installations, 6 mm
adapters are supplied.

For -Vacuum Service, the restrictor is located downstream of the

flowmeter. The restrictor is installed in the exhaust poert on the gas panel.

In vacuum service the
restrictor should be
placed here.
