General MaintenanceWater Trap / Filter MaintenanceThe filter located inside the water trap / filter bowl should be checked and, ifnecessary, replaced every two weeks or if low flow exists that will not go away.Also, replace this filter if excessively high HC readings exist that do not go awayafter allowing the pump to run for several minutes.• Some water in the filter bowl is normal and does not affect operation. The filterbowl will, under normal conditions, be approximately half full of water.• To completely empty the filter bowl of water, or if a low flow occurs because ofexcessive water, disconnect hose (A) with the pump running. The water will beremoved automatically.• After a filter change or when the filter is completely dry, the water appears to fillthe water trap. This is normal. Once the filter absorbs moisture you will see thelevel drop to normal. If excess water should ever accumulate, the float in thefilter/water trap assembly automatically shuts down the gas analyzer pump toprotect the sample/gas bench system.ABCDEFGFigure 4-3: Water Trap / FilterABCDEFGGas sample hose connectorFilterSealO-ringAttached O-ringFilter bowlWater drain hose connectorTo replace the water trap filter,1. Remove water drain hose from the bottom of the filter bowl.4-8

General Maintenance—Push the gray sleeve inward and pull hose straight out of the connector.2. Unscrew filter bowl.3. Remove filter, filter seal and O-ring.4. Wash bowl with soap and water.✓ Do not use solvents.5. Inspect attached O-ring on top of the filter bowl.—Make sure it is not split.6. Install the O-ring and seal back into the bottom of the filter bowl.✓ Make sure the O-ring is seated in the groove on the seal and itrests in the filter bowl.7. Insert new filter in filter bowl on top of the seal.8. Line up bowl with top and finger tighten until snug.✓ To properly tighten the filter bowl after the filter begins to threadinto the housing, tighten four full turns.✓ We recommend performing a leak check after filter service isperformed.Exhaust Fan Filter MaintenanceThe exhaust fan filter is located directly behind the water trap / filter bowl. Clean orreplace this filter when you are replacing the water trap filter.To service the exhaust fan filter,1. Pop the filter element retainer grid off the filter bracket.2. Lift out the filter.3. Rinse the filter under running water or gently brush clean.4. Replace the filter over the opening.5. With flat side toward the filter, snap the filter retainer back in place.The analyzer internal cooling fan is controlled automatically by the microprocessorinside the gas analyzer. The fan runs when the internal gas analyzer temperaturerises above 100 degrees F and turns off when the temperature falls below 90degrees F. The control is completely automatic and no operator action isnecessary except to clean the filter.Battery MaintenanceTo charge the analyzer battery, connect the external power supply to the batteryand plug into the wall. If the battery power was very low or dead, charge for atleast 24 hours before use. The battery will not charge if the ambient temperatureinside the analyzer is above 109° F (43° C). The analyzer battery will remaincharged approximately 2-4 months without use and with nothing connected to it.✓ If the FGA remains unused for an extended period, recommendedpractice is to charge the battery before use. You cannot over-charge thebattery.✓ The FGA analyzer does not have an On/Off switch. The analyzer isactivated by communication from the software. If you want the analyzer toperform an action, select the action from the pocket PC or PC software.4-9
