Clean Gas < 10 Bar
Reduce positive pressure gas
to atmospheric pressure.
Use a needle valve at low
pressures (<10 barg) to control
flow and pressure drop.
Process Pipe
Clean Gas > 10 Bar
Reduce positive pressure gas to
atmospheric pressure.
Use a stainless steel, low swept
volume pressure regulator at higher
pressures (>10 barg).
Process Pipe
Gases with Particulate/ Liquid Contamination
Filter all particulate matter. Use
a coalescing filter (with drain)
for heavy hydrocarbon
condensate samples.
Hygroscopic particulate
(desiccant dust) must achieve
moisture concentration
equilibrium which may cause a
buffering effect and delay the
sample result. Hygroscopic
liquid (glycol) may accentuate
the buffering effect (as above)
and render the sensor too slow

to use.
Install the filter as close to the
sample point as practical

1.
Install the sample piping system and equipment as per the required installation configuration.
NOTE: The SADPmini2 is not connected to the inlet piping system at this stage.
2.
Open the sample Isolation Valve and adjust the needle valve/ regulator to allow a flow of 5-15 litres per

minute to atmosphere through to sample pipe.
(optional)
3.
Allow the gas to flow through the sample pipe for 2 minutes to purge the system.
4.
After ensuring that the sample gas is clean and dry connect the sample pipe to the instrument.
NOTE: The orientation of the ports is not important.
5.
When the sample flow is low or very dry gas is being measured connect a >20 cm pipe to the outlet port
to prevent back diffusion.
6.
Allow the gas to flow through the SADPmini2 for two minutes.
7.
Press the power button on the SADPmini2 and ensure that the sensor is 'dry'.
8.
Block the instrument outlet, e.g. cover with a finger and allow the Desiccant Head to extend fully.
NOTE: Do not lift the Desiccant Head manually as this will draw ambient air into the sample chamber and
produce a false reading.
9.
Unblock the outlet and allow the gas to flow through the sensor.
10.
The displayed reading will rise until the sensor is in equilibrium with the sample gas.
11.
When the displayed reading has settled record the final reading.

When completed manually depress the Desiccant Head fully.

use to prevent the sensor and desiccant material becoming saturated.
13.
Close the sample Isolation Valve.
14.
Press and hold the power button for two seconds to switch off the SADPmini2.
15.
Disconnect the pipework from the SADPmini2.
