3 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Please take care of the following basic safety procedures when mounting, starting up or
operating this equipment:
Read this operating manual before starting up and use of the equipment. The information and
warnings given in this operating manual must be heeded.
Any work on electrical equipment is only to be carried out by trained specialists as per the regulations
currently in force.
Attention must be paid to the requirements of VDE 0100 (IEC 364) when setting high-power electrical
units with nominal voltages of up to 1000 V, together with the associated standards and stipulations.
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.
Check that the location is weather-protected. It should not be subject to either direct rain or moisture.
The device must not be used in hazardous areas.

6 APPLICATION
The Peltier Gas Sample Cooler Type ECP .000 is used in analyser sample system design to reduce
the dew point of wet gases to a level that is stable and low.
Sample gas cooling prevents subsequent condensation in the analyser. The stability of the dew point
is also extremely important at it helps to prevent water vapour cross sensitivity and volumetric error,
especially in infrared analysers.
The sample gas passes through a sampling probe to the Type ECP .000 Cooler where it is lowered to
a dew point of +5°C. Solids will have been trapped in the filter of the sample probe, (If provided in the
type used) or are trapped in a downstream fine filter.
The conditioned gas can now be passed to the analyser.
If the analyser has no gas flow control or indicator functions, these should be provided externally, just
as with a gas delivery pump for unpressurized gases.
The condensate is discharged externally. For operations under pressure, an automatic condensate
drain or collection vessel is used. For operations in partial vacuum (suction), a condensate vessel with
a manual drain or a peristaltic pump for automatic condensate removal is used.

7 FUNCTION OF THE M&C JET-STREAM HEAT EXCHANGER
The coolers ECP 1000/2000/3000 with special design for analysis technique are prepared for
maximum flow rates of 350l/h.
The Jet-Stream heat exchangers made of Duran glass, optional PVDF or stainless steel are located in
a heat insulated cooling block. All the heat exchangers are easily accessible and are arranged in such
a way that they can be removed very simply. Figure 2 shows a schematic diagram of the functioning of
the heat exchanger.
