MicroVol-1100 User manual 1.6
Introduction
Note:
The impactor must be greased prior
to use – see Section 6.3.2 for details.
1.5.1 Inlet tube
The inlet tube is removed during transportation. Remove the seal caps from the inlet
tube. Put the seal caps in a safe place for future transport. Check that the insides of the
inlet components (aluminium inlet tube, filter holder and impactor assembly) are free
of packing foam. Make sure the tube is clean and dry internally before fitting it to the
sampler.
Insert one end of the tube into the orange push-in fitting near the base of the
MicroVol-1100. Once initial resistance is felt, push the inlet tube into the fitting a
further 5-10mm to make a gas-tight seal. Then clip the tube to the side of the
MicroVol-1100. Put one of the seal caps on the top of the tube until the filter holder /
impactor assembly is ready to be attached. Keep the caps for future transportation.
1.5.2 Filter holder/impactor assembly
Detach the blue filter holder from the metal impactor assembly. Disassemble the filter
holder; install a filter in the filter holder, then re-assemble the filter holder and
impactor assembly. The filter holder and impactor assembly fit together as shown in
Figure 1. Make sure that the parts are pushed together and sealed correctly.
Remove the cap from the upper inlet tube and install the filter holder/impactor
assembly on top of the tube. Once initial resistance is felt, push the assembly down
another 5-10mm to make a gas-tight seal on the sample tube.
