8.3.3 Running a Low Pressure, Liquid/Particulate Containing Gas Sample
For gas samples containing liquids or particulates, use the Genie Filter Assembly
(PN G2817A). See Figure 8-30.
CAUTION
The Genie Filter Assembly sample conditioner is
designed to remove small amounts of liquids or
particulates. It is not suitable for samples containing
large amounts of liquids or particulates.
1 If the Genie Filter Assembly is not installed, refer to section 5.1.3, Installing the
Genie Filter Assembly, on page 5-3.

2 Turn 3000 Micro GC on.
3 Check that the carrier gas supply is sufficient to run all of the samples.
4 If using a sample vessel, prepare the sample.
5 Connect the sample conditioner or gas source to 3000 Micro GC.
CAUTION
For sample source pressures above 172 kPa (25 PSI),
install a pressure regulator between the sample source
and Genie filter.
6 Open the sample vessel valve and adjust the pressure to between
70 to 172 kPa (10 to 25 PSI).
7 Use EZ IQ software to load the desired method and perform the analysis.
8 When the analysis is complete, close the sample vessel valve and disconnect
the vessel from the instrument.
9 Repeat steps 4 to 8 to run the next sample.
