NOTES:
1. it is recommended that you install an external sample shut off valve to allow control while accessing or service to the sample chamber.
2. Air Purging of upper and lower enclosures is recommended.
3. Each Analyzer MUST have its own drain tube vented to atmosphere.
4. The installation of a power circuit breaker is highly recommended.

The 3/8-inch (9.6 mm) DRA�N MUST BE VENTED TO ATMOSPHERE. The sample drain contains analysis wastes, which include both sample and chemical reagents. Please check with local authorities concerning proper disposal of waste from this product.
NOTES:
The enclosure drain produces no waste under normal use. However, in the event of spills or leaks, some waste may be produced.
The Analyzer is shipped with all of the internal tubing attached. Before starting up the instrument, verify that the tubing lines are secured.

The Analyzer is intended for use only with single-phase power .
The analyzer is not equipped with a power switch, therefore a circuit breaking device such as a circuit breaker should conform to local safety standards and must be fitted before the final installation. The circuit breaker must be in close proximity to the analyzer and within reach of the user, and must be marked clearly as the disconnection device for the analyzer.
