Endress+Hauser
1.
Unscrew the pellet vessel (item 5) at the bottom.
2.
Insert a filter pad into the pellet vessel (hard surface towards pellets) and screw the
vessel closed again at the bottom.
3.
Unscrew the pellet vessel at the top.
4.
Pour pellets into the pellet vessel until it is completely full (shake the pellet vessel gently
to compact the pellets).
5.
Place the second filter pad over the pellets (hard surface towards pellets) and screw the
pellet vessel closed again.
6.
Fill the water vessel (item 3) with approx. 400 ml (13.5 fl.oz) of deionized water.
7
Installation
CO2 scrubber
Connect the gas pipes:
1.
Connect the gas pipe (item 6) between the water vessel and pellet vessel.
2.
Connect the outlet (item 4) to the analyzer.
3.
Connect the compressed air line (do not open the compressed air) to the inlet (item 1).
4.
Turn the control knob on the pressure regulator (item 2) counterclockwise as far as it
will go.
5.
Open the compressed air supply.
6.
Set the pressure regulator to 2 bar (turn the control knob clockwise).
3.3
Post-installation check
• After mounting, make sure that all the screws are firmly tightened.
• After the installation, make sure that all connections are secure and that there are no
leaks.
• Examine all hoses for damage.

Endress+Hauser
Diagnostics and troubleshooting
Problem
Possible cause
Alarm "Check CO2 basic line" (is
displayed on the analyzer)
Pellets are used up and complete CO2 removal no
longer takes place.
Pellets consumed at an
unusually fast rate
A higher concentration of CO2 in the compressed air
or acid gases cause a significant increase in pellet
consumption.
Leaks when mounting result in higher gas
consumption and thereby higher pellet
consumption.

Maintenance
CO2 scrubber
5
Maintenance
Maintenance work must be carried out at regular intervals to ensure the efficient operation
of the gas scrubber.
Before you attempt to service the device, you must be completely familiar with the
maintenance processes and understand them fully. All the maintenance processes
listed in this section may only be performed by a properly trained technician. Incorrect
maintenance can result in inexact operation and cause a safety hazard.
Interval
Maintenance work
At least once a week
• Visual inspection
Every 3 months or based on
consumption
• Replace the content of the pellet vessel
• Replace the hydraulic seal
The maintenance intervals depend heavily on your application. For this reason, adapt the
maintenance intervals to your specific requirements but always ensure that these
maintenance tasks are performed regularly!
5.1
Visual inspection
Perform the visual inspection at least once a week:
• Check the water level in the water vessel. If the water level has dropped significantly
(approx. 10 cm (4 inch) above the lower gland), you must replace the water (see the
"Replacing water and pellets" section).
• Check pellet consumption. If the pellets are completely discolored (color has changed from
white to violet), you must replace the pellets (see the "Replacing water and pellets" section).

Replacing water and pellets
CAUTION
Caustic pellets can cause injury
‣ Pay attention to the instructions on the safety data sheet.
‣ Wear protective goggles and safety gloves.
Replace the water and pellets as follows:
1.
At the analyzer select the Service / Cleaning / Bypass screen menu.
2.
Cut off the compressed air supply to the gas scrubber and vent the pressure regulator
(turn the control knob counterclockwise).
3.
Once the pressure has dropped completely, unscrew the gas pipe between the pellet
vessel and water vessel and the gas pipe at the outlet of the pellet vessel.
4.
Take the pellet vessel out of the retaining clips and remove the filter pads and the used
pellets.
5.
Insert a new filter pad (hard surface towards pellets), fill the vessel with new pellets and
compact the pellets by shaking the vessel gently.
6.
Place the second filter pad on top (hard surface towards pellets).
7.
Put the pellet vessel into the holder.
8.
Unscrew the gas pipe at the compressed air inlet and remove the water vessel from the
retaining clips.
9.
Drain the water vessel completely and fill the vessel with approx. 400 ml (13.5 fl.oz) of
deionized water.
10. Insert the water vessel into the holder and screw on the thread adapter nut and pressure
regulator. Connect the gas pipes.
11. Turn on the compressed air and set the pressure regulator to 2 bar.
12. In the Service / Cleaning / Bypass screen menu acknowledge the service and return to
measuring operation.
5.3
Pellet storage and disposal
Disposal
It is not possible to regenerate the calcium sodium hydroxide pellets. Dispose of used pellet
material in line with legal regulations. For more information, please see the safety data
sheet.
Storage
Store the pellets as follows:
• Airtight in plastic vessels
• Dry storage location at 0 to 35 °C (32 to 95 °F)
• Protect against strong sunshine
The pellets can adsorb moisture and CO2 from the ambient air and become used up in this
way.
