(2) Sampling gas flow rate
A flow rate of sampling gas must be 1 L/min ±0.5 L/min. A flow meter should be provided as
shown in Fig. 3-2 to measure flow rate values.
(3) Preparation for standard gas
Prepare the standard gas for zero/span calibration.

(4) Purging of instrument inside
The inside of instrument need not be purged generally except for the following cases.
1. A combustible gas component is contained in sample gas.
2. Corrosive gas is contained in the atmospheric air at the installation site.
3. The same gas as the sample gas component is contained in the atmospheric air at the installation
site.
In such cases as above, the inside of analyzer should be purged with the air for instrumentation or N2.
Purging flow rate should be about 1L/min.
If dust or mist is contained in purging gas, it should be eliminated completely in advance.
(5) Pressure at sampling gas outlet
Pressure at the sampling gas outlet should be set to atmospheric pressure.
