Product Information

The JPES series of heated gas sample probes is designed for use with dust and aerosol-containing gases in extractive sampling systems. It is especially suitable for measurement in non-stationary applications. The JPES can be used with water vapor and high dew point corrosive gases, which must be kept above their dew point to prevent corrosion and sample degradation prior to analysis or sample conditioning. The JPES can be delivered with a large assortment of accessories and several filter elements to meet user-specific applications.

Features

  • Heated sample line JHSo
  • Heated sample pipe JBER
  • Portable sample probe JPES
  • Filter elements of various materials
  • Easy filter replacement without tools and without disconnecting the heated sample hose

Product Usage Instructions

Mounting:
The JPES gas sample probe should be mounted in a position where it can capture a representative sample of the gas stream being monitored. The probe should be securely mounted using appropriate hardware such as brackets or clamps.

Installation
Before installing the JPES gas sample probe, ensure that the unpacking process has been completed correctly. The installation instructions should be followed carefully, including mounting and electrical connections.

Start-Up
After installation, the JPES gas sample probe should be checked thoroughly to ensure that all connections are secure and that there are no leaks. Once the system has been checked, the probe can be started up by applying power to the heating element and allowing the system to warm up. It is recommended to wait until the sample line and probe have reached the desired temperature before taking measurements.

Demounting
When the JPES gas sample probe is no longer required, it should be demounted carefully. All electrical connections should be disconnected, and the probe should be carefully removed from its mounting position. The probe should be stored in a safe and secure location to prevent damage.

Maintenance and Service
The JPES gas sample probe requires regular maintenance to ensure that it continues to function correctly. The O-rings and filter element should be checked and replaced as necessary. Filter replacement can be done easily without any tools and without disconnecting the heated sample hose.

Introduction

The JPES series of heated gas sample probes is designed for use with dust and aerosol-containing gases in extractive sampling systems, especially for measure-ment in not stationary applications. Water vapour and high dew point corrosive gases must be kept above their dew point to prevent corrosion and sample degradation prior to the analysis or sample conditioning.
The JPES can be delivered with a large assortment of accessories and several filter elements to meet user-specific applications.
The JPES incorporates a non-corrosive heated, replaceable filter element. The filter element is mounted in a thermally isolated and electrically heated stainless steel housing covered by a protective enclosure.
The temperature regulation is done by a maintenance-free, PTC heater. The heated sample line JH-SO 9412 series is directly connected with the probe housing with a Quick On connection.
For proper selection of various sample pipe constructions and materials as well as filter elements please refer to our trained personnel.

Mounting
The complete unit consists of the heated filter head, mounting and installation material. The probe is mounted directly to a sampling hole or flange. If the assembly takes place horizontally, the JPES should be built in an angle at least between 5° and 15° from the horizontals falling, to allow condensate flow back into the process.

Versatile
Different pipes – heated and unheated – materials and filters as well as heated sample lines make the JPES very flexible for different applications.

Service and security
Filter replacement can be done easily without any tools and without disconnecting the heated sample hose.

General safety information
Gas sample probes are sophisticated devices intended for use by qualified personnel only. It is necessary that this manual is been read and understood by those who will install, use and maintain this equipment.

Intended Use
The portable heated gas sampling probe is designed for mobile use in gas analysis systems. Please observe the technical specifications regarding ambient and supply conditions and admissible temperature limits.

CAUTION
The sample probe JPES is not suitable for use in hazardous areas.

Installation, unpacking

  • Check instrument for any damage caused by shipping. If any damage is established, contact the carrier and dis-tributor immediately.
  • Check instrument and any other parts against order.

Installation instructions

  • Disconnect mains before working on electrical part of equipment.
  • The equipment has to be connected and grounded according to the local rules and regulations.
  • It is essentially necessary to keep the electronics away from radiant heating (thermal insulation). The ambient temperature must not exceed 60°C.
  • The probe mounting has to be done always with a minimum inclination of 5° towards the sampling pipe. This is necessary to prevent a possible flow back from condensate into the probe.

Mounting

  • Mount filter element according to description.(Refer to chapter “Maintenance and service”).
  • Push in sample pipe and tighten union nut stalwart.

CAUTION
Sealing is radial. Tighten stalwart only!

NOTE
Lateral mobility of the sample pipe is normal as sealing is radial.

  • Mount the probe with a gasket or universal adapter with aid of some PTFE paste on the process flange or sampling hole. (see “Installation example”)
  • The universal adapter which is part of the set is suitable for nominal pipe sizes up to 60mm. Adapters for larger diameters are available on request.
  • Hang up the JPES sample probe with a mounting chain.
  • Take care of the correct mounting angle according to technical specifications.
  • Connect the sample line to the JPES by pulling out the Quick On lock and pushing in the sample line. Then connect the other end to the sample conditioning or analyzer.
  • Establish electrical connections, supply as well as the status contact for the analyzer.
  • Connect the cable connector of the heated sample line (4) with the sample probe.
  • for heated sample pipe: install electrical connection from heated sample line via heated sample pipe to probe, i.e. connect cable plug (3) of heated sample pipe with heated sample hose and cable connector (4) with the probe.

CAUTION
Quick On must lock into place properly.

CAUTION
If the sample gas temperature exceeds 250°C, mount sample probe not flush but in adequate distance or with a thermal isolation mat.

NOTE
Maximum temperature for the universal adapter is 250°C.

NOTE
The heated sample line must be strain relieved and must not be hung on the fitting

CAUTION
Never use grease for mounting sample pipe!

Installation example

LAUPER-INSTRUMENTS-JPES-Gas-Detection-FIG-6

Electrical connections

  • Check local voltage, frequency, and power consumption against type plates of probe, heated line, and (if applicable) heated pipe.
  • Connect mains to the supply outlet and JPES temperature status contact to the analyzer. If needed, connect a 2-pole switch in the main supply. The JPES sample probe is not equipped with a switch.
  • The operator must provide suitable stress relief for all cables.
  • Fusing has to be done on-site according to local rules and regulations.
  • Take care of min. bending radius and mechanical support by the mounting of the heated hose.

  • Apply a thin wetting of PTFE paste on O-rings and pull them on.

Replacement of filter element
Filter elements, O-rings and gaskets are consumables and have to be replaced regularly, at least once a year. Ensure that sealing surfaces are clean and unhurt. Please note that FFKM sealing materials are aging irre-versibly at high temperatures. This process is called “outgasing”.

Burn hazard!
Use heat resistant gloves.

CAUTION
The housing of the probe may get very hot!Take care, in case of process over pressure, explosive and/or toxic gas emanation is possible. To avoid accidents take care for necessary safety pre-cautions in case of service and maintenance.
