6 INTRODUCTION Hot sample gas very often contains solids like dust, taar or grime and water vapour. These materials cause problems for a continuous gas analysis, especially when the gas temperature falls below the dew point. The sample line will be blocked and the analyser will be damaged. Therefore the solids have to be separated and a temperature drop below the dew point has to be prevented. For this complex of problems the electrically heated M&C universal filter type FSS-../H350 was designed.
9 DESCRIPTION The M&C filter FSS../H350 is mounted thermally isolated on a plate. The stainless steel filter body with integrated filter element, alternatively of ceramic, stainless steel or special spun glass, is completely covered by a heated metal enclosure. The high capacity heating element is controlled by an incorporated compact capillary sensor thermostat in a temperature range of +50 °C to 350 °C.
11 INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS The filter FSS-../H350 is suitable for wall mounting. The aluminium mounting plate is fixed with 4 screws (s. Fig. 1). SKILLED STAFF NOTE! The installation has to be carried out by skilled staff ! Locate the universal filter series FSS-…/H350 in such a way that there is adequate space for removing the cover and replacing the filter elements.
WARNING! NOTE! When connecting the equipment, please ensure that the supply voltage is identical with the information provided on the model type plate! Attention must be paid to the requirements of IEC 364 (DIN VDE 0100) when setting high-power electrical units with nominal voltages of up to 1000 V, together with the associated standards and stipulations.
13 STARTING Before starting the gas conditioning system please pay attention to the site-oriented and processoriented precautions. For the carried media the corresponding safety regulations and measures have to be considered. SKILLED STAFF WARNING! The starting has to be carried out by skilled staff ! Before starting up check whether the mains power supply voltage corresponds with the information stated on the nameplate. Beware of touching the filter surface during operation.
14 SHUT-DOWN SKILLED STAFF The shut-down has to be carried out by skilled staff ! Before shut-down, i.e. switching off the heating, the probe be flushed with inert gas or air in order to avoid condensation of aggressive components from the process gas.
The following steps are recommended removing the filter housing lid (s. Fig. 2): Turn toggle screw „A“ approx.
