generator flow adjustment. The O
3
generator flow is controlled by a precision pressure
regulator and flow restrictor. Increasing upstream pressure of flow restrictor will increase
flowrate and vice versa. In order to increase pressure, adjust knob clockwise as needed while
monitoring the O
3
flow test measurement display. In general, the O
3
generator flow should be
at least 1 L/MIN in addition of total flow demands for the Model 401 (800 cc/min) and
remote analyzers.
NOTE
Adjustment of the O
3
generator flow is to be performed by qualified
maintenance personnel only.
