1.1 Intended use
This unit is intended for industrial use in gas analysis systems.
It's an essential component for conditioning the sample gas to
protect the analysis instrument from residual moisture in the
sample gas.
Please note the specifications in the data sheet on the specific
intended use, existing material combinations, as well as pres-
sure and temperature limits.
1.2 Overview
The compact RC 1.2 Rack system is a 19" rack-mount unit with
sample gas cooler and condensate removal, particle filter and
humidity sensor for up to two gas paths.
The RC 1.2+ Rack series has been specially designed for the re-
quirements of so-called automatic measuring systems (AMS)
in accordance with EN 15267-3. The series connection of the
heat exchangers will cool in two cycles to minimise wash-out
effects.
The compressor coolers are distinguished by two types based
on the cooling nests. This classification is reflected in the type
designation. The exact item number of the model defined by
you is determined by the model code in the ordering informa-
tion category.

Additional components which every conditioning system
should feature can optionally be integrated:
• Peristaltic pump for condensate separation,
• Filter,
• Moisture detector.
In addition, we offer a range of signal outputs:
• Status output,
• Analogue output, 4...20 mA, incl. status output,
• Modbus RTU digital output, incl. status output.
This allows for various configurations of the cooler and its op-
tions. Here the approach is to simplify the creation of a com-
plete system in a cost-efficient way using pre-installed com-
ponents with hoses connected. In addition, easy access to
wear and consumable components has been ensured.

• Safety instructions and operating manuals are available
and observed,
• the respective national accident prevention regulations
are observed,
• the permissible data and operational conditions are
maintained,
• protective devices are used and the required mainten-
ance is performed,
• the device is disposed of according to the law,
• valid national installation regulations are observed,
• the device is protected against mechanical impact.
