364) ‘Regulations on the Installation of Power Circuits with Nominal Voltages below 1000 V’ and must
be in compliance with all relevant regulations and standards.
Check the details on the type plate to ensure that the equipment is connected to the correct mains
voltage.
Protection against touching dangerously high electrical voltages:
Before opening the equipment, it must be switched off and hold no voltages. This also applies to any
external control circuits that are connected.
The device is only to be used within the permitted range of temperatures and pressures.
Ensure sun-protected installation.
The unit may only be operated upright and with the door closed. Unused connectors must be closed
with the appropriate caps. IP42 means protection against foreign objects ≥1 mm and dripping water
up to an angle of ≤ 15°.
Do not use the gas conditioning systems PSS-5C, PSS-5/2C and PSS-5/3C in hazardous areas.
Installation, maintenance, inspections and any repairs of the devices must be carried out only by
qualified skilled personnel in compliance with the current regulations.

[41 °F]
The portable gas conditioning systems PSS-5C, PSS-5/2C and PSS-5/3C are designed especially for
applications where accurate gas analysis at constantly changing locations is required.
The entire gas conditioning system is housed in a compact and impact-resistant plastic case equipped
with an integrated trolley with extendable handle. This allows gas analysis at various locations to be
carried out quickly, reliably and with low maintenance.
7 Function of the M&C Jet-Stream Heat Exchanger
The ECPX000C gas coolers, specially developed for analysis technology, are designed for maximum
flow rates of up to 350 Nl/h. They are also installed as system assemblies in the PSS-5C, PSS-5/2C
and PSS-5/3C.
Jet-Stream heat exchangers are available in Duran glass, stainless steel (316Ti) and PVDF
(polyvinylidene fluoride). The selection of the appropriate heat exchanger material is customerspecific. The heat exchangers are easily accessible and easily replaceable in a heat-insulated cooling
block. Figure 4 shows a schematic diagram of the heat exchanger function.

8 Application
The PSS-5C gas conditioning system is suitable for variable discontinuous use as well as for
continuous operation.
The upright, closed PSS-5C case with screwed in connectors complies with protection class IP42 as
required by the EN15267-4:2017 standard. It contains a standard gas temperature monitoring as well
as a temperature display visible from the outside.
