FCC Part 15, Class "A" Limits
Supporting test records reside with the manufacturer. The device complies with Part 15 of the FCC
Rules. Operation is subject to the following conditions:
1. The equipment may not cause harmful interference.
2. The equipment must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause
undesired operation.
Changes or modifications to this equipment not expressly approved by the party responsible for
compliance could void the user's authority to operate the equipment. This equipment has been tested
and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC rules.
These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the
equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses and can
radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction
manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a
residential area is likely to cause harmful interference, in which case the user will be required to
correct the interference at their expense. The following techniques can be used to reduce
interference problems:
1. Disconnect the equipment from its power source to verify that it is or is not the source of the
interference.
2. If the equipment is connected to the same outlet as the device experiencing interference, connect
the equipment to a different outlet.
3. Move the equipment away from the device receiving the interference.
4. Reposition the receiving antenna for the device receiving the interference.
5. Try combinations of the above.

Product overview
D A N G E R
Chemical or biological hazards. If this instrument is used to monitor a treatment process and/or
chemical feed system for which there are regulatory limits and monitoring requirements related to
public health, public safety, food or beverage manufacture or processing, it is the responsibility of the
user of this instrument to know and abide by any applicable regulation and to have sufficient and
appropriate mechanisms in place for compliance with applicable regulations in the event of malfunction
of the instrument.
CAUTION
Fire hazard. This product is not designed for use with flammable liquids.
The SD900 Portable Sampler collects liquid samples at specified intervals and keeps the samples in
bottles or containers. Use the sampler for a wide variety of aqueous applications and for toxic
pollutants and suspended solids. Set up the sampler with different retainers, bottles or containers.

Installation
D A N G E R
Multiple hazards. Only qualified personnel must conduct the tasks described in this section of the
document.
Confined space precautions
D A N G E R
Explosion hazard. Training in pre-entry testing, ventilation, entry procedures, evacuation/rescue
procedures and safety work practices is necessary before entering confined spaces.
The information that follows is supplied to help users understand the dangers and risks that are
associated with entry into confined spaces.
On April 15, 1993, OSHA's final ruling on CFR 1910.146, Permit Required Confined Spaces, became
law. This standard directly affects more than 250,000 industrial sites in the United States and was
created to protect the health and safety of workers in confined spaces.
Definition of a confined space:
A confined space is any location or enclosure that has (or has the immediate potential for) one or
more of the following conditions:
• An atmosphere with an oxygen concentration that is less than 19.5% or more than 23.5% and/or a
hydrogen sulfide (H2S) concentration that is more than 10 ppm.
• An atmosphere that can be flammable or explosive due to gases, vapors, mists, dusts or fibers.
• Toxic materials which upon contact or inhalation can cause injury, impairment of health or death.
8 English

Confined spaces are not designed for human occupancy. Confined spaces have a restricted entry
and contain known or potential hazards. Examples of confined spaces include manholes, stacks,
pipes, vats, switch vaults and other similar locations.
Standard safety procedures must always be obeyed before entry into confined spaces and/or
locations where hazardous gases, vapors, mists, dusts or fibers can be present. Before entry into a
confined space, find and read all procedures that are related to confined space entry.
Mechanical installation
Site installation guidelines
D A N G E R
Explosion hazard. The instrument is not approved for installation in hazardous locations.
Refer to the guidelines that follow for the site location evaluation.
• Obey all the safety precautions if the sampler is installed in a confined space. Refer to Confined
space precautions on page 8.
• Make sure that the temperature at the location is in the specification range. Refer to Specifications
on page 3.
• Install the sampler on a level surface or hang the sampler with the suspension harness, the
support bracket or the spanner bar. Refer to Install the sampler in a manhole on page 9 and to
the applicable installation documentation.
• As near the sample source as possible to decrease analysis delay. Refer to Plumb the sampler
on page 12.
• For limitations on transport velocity and maximum vertical lift, refer to Specifications on page 3.
Install the sampler in a manhole
Install the sampler above the sample water in a manhole. Install the sampler with a spanner bar or a
support bracket. Install the spanner bar inside the manhole. The spanner bar is supported by
pressure against the walls. The support bracket has the same width as the manhole cover. Install the
support bracket directly below the cover for support.Refer to the expanded manual on the
manufacturer's website.Refer to the documentation supplied with the accessories to install the
sampler.
Install the distributor or full-bottle shutoff (optional)
The distributor or full-bottle shutoff assembly is typically installed at the factory. Refer to the
distributor or full-bottle shutoff documentation for installation.
Prepare the sampler
Clean the sample bottles
Clean the sample bottles and caps with a brush, water and a mild detergent. Flush the containers
with fresh water followed by a distilled water rinse.
Install a single bottle
Use a single bottle to collect one composite sample. When the bottle is full, the full bottle shut-off
stops the sample program.
1. Clean the sample bottles. Refer to Clean the sample bottles on page 9.
2. Install the sample bottle as shown in Figure 3.

Install the first bottle for multiple sample collections
Use multiple bottles to collect samples into separate bottles or into more than one bottle. The
distributor moves the sample tube above each bottle. Install the bottles in the sampler base as shown
in Figure 4. Install the first sample bottle (number 1) below the label in the sampler base. Install the
remaining bottles in increasing numbers in the direction shown by the label. Refer to Figure 5
on page 12 for a diagram of necessary components.
