Connection of Gas-Outlet
The use of a flow meter (accessory) to control the dosed gas outlet from the
specimen pressure chamber is highly recommended.
Unscrew the pre-mounted hose nipple of the GAS OUT connection.
Screw the connecting tube of the flow meter onto the GAS OUT connection.
Place the flow meter on the EM CPD030 unit.
If no flow meter is available, control of the dosed gas outlet can be done via tube
and water container:
Mount a PVC tube (diameter 5/10 mm) onto the pre-mounted hose nipple of the
GAS OUT connection.
Dip the other end of the tube into a water-filled container: Exhaust of gas can be
monitored by the bubbles formed and regulated accordingly.
