    Uploaded by

    neeraj
    This document provides instructions for replacing the flashback arresters in a catalytic and thermal conductivity instrument. The procedure involves removing various components like the battery holder, wires, and filaments. To replace the flashback arresters, the old ones are removed by grasping the pin with pliers and pulling them out of the sleeves. New flashback arresters are then inserted into the sleeves. A warning is given that the flashback arresters must be installed to prevent flame propagation and that reused arresters will not fit properly.

    Flashback Arrester Replacement


    To replace the flashback arrester in the catalytic and thermal
    conductivity wells, perform the following procedure:
    1. Lift cover and loosen the clasps connecting the top and bottom
    case sections; close the cover.
    2. Turn the instrument upside down and set it on its cover.
    3. Lift off the bottom case section.
    4. Turn the instrument so the inlet and outlet fittings are
    positioned as shown in FIGURE 3-1.
    5. Remove the four screws and lock washers holding the
    battery holder to the posts; lift off battery holder and place it
    on its side.
    6. Remove the two screws holding the lugs on the orange and
    white wires to the white base.
    7. Remove the TC filament with the white base by turning the
    base counterclockwise until it is free of the well.
    8. Remove the catalytic filament plug with the black base by
    turning the base counterclockwise until it is free of the well.
    9. Loosen the screw holding the absorber (bowl-shaped part)
    in the TC filament well (FIGURE 3-3); remove absorber
    and screw.
    10. Remove the flashback arresters (FIGURE 3-4) by grasping
    the pin with long-nose pliers and pulling the arrester out of
    the sleeve.
    11. Insert replacement arresters in the sleeves.

    " WARNING
    The flashback arresters must be installed in the instrument
    to prevent possible flame from the filament wells. Do not
    re-use a flashback arrester; otherwise, it will not fit properly
    in the sleeve and, therefore, cannot prevent flame
    propagation. Explosion, fire, injury or death could occur if
    both flashback arresters are not installed properly or if they
    are reused.

    12. Place the absorber and screw in the well; tighten the screw.
    13. Loosen the screw holding the deflector plate (disc-shaped) in
    the catalytic filament well (FIGURE 3-3); remove the
    deflector and screw.
