22 ACF5000 FTIR ANALYZER SYSTEM | OI/ACF5000-EN REV. A
Requirements for the installation site of the analyzer cabinet
Short gas paths
The analyzer cabinet should be set up as close as possible to the meas-
uring location. A short sample gas line translates into short dead times.
Because of the pressure drop in the line and the required electrical pro-
tection, the length of the heated sample gas line must not exceed 60
meters when connected to 230 VAC and 40 meters when connected to
120 VAC. Depending on the altitude of the installation site, these values
may be lower.
The test gas bottles should be set up as close as possible to the analyzer
cabinet.
Protection from adverse ambient conditions
The analyzer cabinet must be protected from
Jets of water,
Contact with chemicals,
Strong sunlight and heat,
Strong air currents
Extremely dusty environments,
Corrosive atmosphere
Vibration.
