It is only possible to specify a few general rules for such applications. Where possible, 

sample should be obtained at a point where the gases are well mixed to a uniform 

composition. Where this is impossible; it will be necessary to average a number of 

measurements taken at different locations to obtain representative average. Where 

gases being sampled are not saturated with moisture (many non-combustion applica-

tions), it is very important to maintain the wool packing of Filter Saturator Tube in a 

moist condition.

NOTE: The FYRITE is calibrated to analyze gases which are 

to indicate slightly lower than actual gas concentration.

Where special length sampling lines are required, add one more bulb squeeze to the 

18 required with standard Sampling Assembly for each additional 3 cubic inches 

(50cc) volume of special sampling line.

EXAMPLE:  For each 9 ft. of 3/1 6 inch (I.D.) additional 

If it is necessary to trap a sample over water for later analysis, a minimum of 900 cc of 

sample will be required. If sample is trapped over water, it is good practice to use 10 

to 15% NaCl (table salt) in the water to minimize absorption of CO

 by water.

Trapping a sample over mercury will eliminate any possible error due to absorption of
