6 INTRODUCTION

The portable unit CSS-M has been especially designed so that precise gas analyses can be carried
out in any place.

The entire gas conditioning unit is housed in a compact and robust steel plate case which ensures that
the gas analyses can be carried out quickly, safely and with a minimum amount of maintenance.

The portable gas conditioning unit CSS-M may not be used for sampling of explosive gas/air or
gas/oxygen mixtures, for sampling of combustible gases which may result in an explosive mixture in
combination with air or oxygen nor in explosive atmospheres and hazardous areas.

7 APPLICATION

The portable gas conditioning unit CSS-M is ideally suited for both intermittent and continuous
operation.

The components of the system CSS-M are intended for "standard use."
