Specification<br />
PID Instrument — Less than 20 seconds for 90% of final value, using<br />
100 ppm of isobutylene<br />
FID Instrument — Less than 20 seconds for 90% of final value, using<br />
10,000 ppm of methane<br />
PID Instrument — Less than 20 seconds to return to 10% of original<br />
value, using 100 ppm of isobutylene<br />
FID Instrument — Less than 20 seconds to return to 10% of original<br />
value, using 10,000 ppm of methane<br />
Auto Mode — 1 per second to 1 per 999 minutes, user selectable<br />
VOC or FE Mode — 2 to 30 seconds, user-selectable<br />
1 liter/minute, nominal, at sample probe inlet<br />
The battery can be fully charged in less than 16 hours. The battery<br />
operating time is 8 hours minimum at 20° (32°F). Use of the<br />
backlight on the probe display shortens battery life. The battery is<br />
replaceable by removing the bottom cover of the instrument.<br />
(WARNING: Do not replace battery in an area classified as hazardous<br />
due to presence of flammable gases or vapors.)<br />
The battery charger is a separate unit capable of operating the<br />
analyzer while simultaneously charging the internal battery. An<br />
adapter cable is provided to charge the battery separate from the<br />
analyzer. The charger can charge a fully discharged battery in a<br />
maximum of 16 hours. Charging takes longer if performed while the<br />
instrument is operating. Two types of chargers are available, one for<br />
120 V ac, 50/60 Hz and another for 230 V ac, 50/60 Hz.<br />
(WARNING: Do not operate battery charger in an area classified as<br />
hazardous due to presence of flammable gases or vapors.)<br />
Greater than 2000 hours for 10.6 eV lamp, with normal cleaning<br />
Greater than 2000 hours<br />
Greater than 75 dB at 3 feet<br />
Pressure — 15.3 MPa at 25°C (2200 psi at 77°F) maximum<br />
Empty — 85 cc (5.19in 3 )<br />
Greater than 8 hours of continuous operation, starting from a<br />
cylinder charged up to 15.3 MPa (2200 psi)<br />
The analyzer enclosure and front panel are made from a chemically<br />
resistant thermoplastic material. The approximate dimensions are<br />
343 x 262 x 81mm (13.5 x 10.3 x 3.2 in). The enclosure is designed<br />
to provide environmental protection.<br />
