Setup
Install battery (see Installing the Battery Pack on page
18). For optimum charging, ensure pump is not running.
Charge the battery by connecting the charger plug to the
sampler charging jack (Figure 1, #18). Ensure that the
battery is fully charged before sampling.
After charging the battery pack, it is good practice
to run the pump for approximately fi ve minutes
before calibrating. This ensures the battery is in
more steady-state conditions and improves the
agreement in pre and post-sampling calibrations.
Do not charge or operate pump from charger in hazardous locations.
Use only an SKC-approved charger designated for this model to
ensure reliable performance. Failure to do so voids any warranty.
Ensure proper orientation of charging cable before plugging it into
the charging jack. Improper orientation/contact will short-circuit the
battery and voids any warranty.
Short-circuiting the battery pack will render it immediately inoperative.
Failure to follow warnings and cautions voids any warranty.

Sampling with Impingers
When using impingers, place an in-line trap
between the pump and the impinger to
protect the sampler from liquid or vapors.
The impinger and trap can be mounted to
the sampler using the accessory mounting
screws (Figure 1, #8) or placed in a holster at
the worker’s waist.
Failure to use the impinger trap voids

Pressure Applications (Bag Sampling)
When using the pump for pressure
applications, such as bag sampling,
thread the exhaust port fi tting supplied
with the pump into the air discharge
port on top of the pump (Figure 1, #15);
hand tighten only. Using PTFE tubing,
connect the inlet of the sample medium
(e.g., sample bag) to the exhaust port
fi tting on the pump. Turn on the pump
to collect the appropriate volume of air.

Setting or Verifying Flow Rate
When performing multiple-tube sampling using an adjustable
low fl ow holder (dual, tri, or quad), ensure the regulator has been
activated and the pump fl ow rate is set at 1.5 L/min. The maximum fl ow rate through any one tube is 500 ml/min*. Calculate the sum
of all tube fl ow rates. If the sum is ≤1000 ml/min, proceed with
calibration and sampling without any further adjustment to the
pump fl ow rate. If the sum is >1000 ml/min, set the pump fl ow rate
15% higher than the sum of tube fl ow rates.
* Back pressure across some sample tubes can be higher than average. In
these instances, the maximum fl ow rate of 500 ml/min per tube may not be
achieved.
Before use, allow pump to equilibrate after moving it from one
temperature extreme to another.
Ensure pump has run for five minutes before proceeding with
calibration.
Ensure the pump is set for low fl ow. See Activating the Regulator, page 9.
Connect the adjustable low flow holder (Figure 4, page 13)
to the pump intake (Figure 2, #9) using 1/4-inch Tygon tubing.

Insert an opened sorbent tube into each rubber sleeve of the low
fl ow holder (Figure 4, #3 and 4) with the arrow on the tube pointing
toward the holder.
If sampling with fewer tubes than number of ports, insert
unopened sorbent tubes in the empty ports to seal them.
Connect holder to
pump intake and tube
inlet to calibrator.
Note the fl ow rates specifi ed by each sampling method and
add them together. If the sum is ≤1000 ml/min, proceed to
the next step. If the sum is >1000 ml/min, multiply the total
tube fl ow rate by 1.15 and set the pump for that fl ow rate.
Connect a calibrator to the exposed end of a sorbent tube,
loosen the brass fl ow adjust screw on the low fl ow holder, and
activate the pump by pressing Flow and Battery Check.
continued on page 15
14
Turn the fl ow adjust screw (Figure 4, #2) for the appropriate
port of the low fl ow holder until the desired fl ow rate is
achieved through the tube. Turn clockwise to decrease the
fl ow.
Do not adjust the fl ow on the pump. Adjust the fl ow only by
using the fl ow adjust screw on the low fl ow holder.
Do not exceed 500 ml/min fl ow rate per tube.

When the desired fl ow is set on the
initial tube, place pump in Hold by
pressing Flow and Battery Check.
Remove the calibrator from the tube
and connect to the exposed end of
the next sorbent tube. Press Flow and
Battery Check and repeat the fl ow
adjustment process until all tubes are
fl ow calibrated. Changing the fl ow on
one tube will not affect the fl ow rate
through the remaining tubes.
Do not exceed 500 ml/min fl ow rate per tube.
For tri and quad models, fi rst rotate each anti-tamper cover
(Figures 4 [on page 13] and 5) to expose the fl ow adjust
screws, then adjust the appropriate screw until calibrator
indicates the desired fl ow.
When the fl ow rate is set for each tube, press Flow and

Maintenance
Pump Inlet Filter
The PCXR4 Sampler is fi tted with a fi lter/trap inside a clear plastic intake port
housing. This prevents particles from being drawn into the pump mechanism.
The fi lter should be visually checked to assure that it does not become clogged.
If maintenance is necessary, follow this procedure:
1. Clean dust and debris from around the fi lter housing.
2. Remove the four screws and the front fi lter
housing.
3. Remove and discard the fi lter membrane.
4. Remove O-ring.
5. Clean the fi lter housing.
6. Insert O-ring
*
and a new fi lter membrane. See
Replacement Parts, pages 22-23.
7. Reattach the front fi lter housing and
cross-tighten the four screws.

2. Slip the front edge of the battery pack under the belt clip and position battery pack to engage the grooves in the case.
3. Slide battery pack toward the pump until it is fl ush with the pump
case on all sides.
4. Install two battery screws and tighten the case screws loosened in
Step 1.
5. Charge battery completely. For optimum charge, ensure pump is not
running during charging.
