1. from unit to unit but it cannot exceed 1 86 slpm when a verification system is installed Sample systems for trace moisture applications will require some time to dry down for reaching the actual process moisture level Typically 12 24 hours operation with process gas flowing at normal flow rates will dry the system but this will vary depending on process conditions length of tubing runs and storage conditions for the Aurora Trace prior to installation Once the analyzer has reached process moisture levels it is recommended to run the verification cycle 6 8 times to ensure all components within are adequately dry to provide accurate verification cycle values 916 135C2.
