Site Considerations
Description
To protect the Maxum II from the elements, it should be located in an analyzer house or a similar
protected enclosure; see Figure 1-1. The air temperature around the analyzer should be maintained
between 0°F (-18°C) and 122°F (50°C). An installation drawing package will be sent out early in the
project to document the application specific information for each Maxum II needed for site preparation.
Final documentation will be shipped with the unit.

Location
The Maxum II is manufactured and tagged for a specific hazardous area classification. The unit must be
installed in an area that is suitable for this area classification.
WARNING The unit is tagged with a T-rating which quantifies the maximum surface
temperature that may occur in the instrument. The user must ensure that no combustible gas
concentrations will be present, whether on a continual or occasional basis, which has an
ignition temperature below the T-rating of the unit.
The analyzer house should be located as close as possible to where the sample is to be obtained to
minimize the sample transit time. It is preferable that this distance be less than 100 feet (30 m).
The analyzer house must be large enough to allow ample access for installing, operating, and
maintaining the analyzer. The concrete slab for the analyzer house should be large enough to
accommodate gas cylinders located on the outside. Make sure a cylinder rack or chain guard is provided
to secure the cylinders.
Space inside for the analyzer must be at least 90” high by 50” wide by 40” deep (229 cm high by 127 cm
wide by 102 cm deep.) The height may be somewhat less if there is no sampling system cabinet or panel
beneath the analyzer. Refer to Maxum II Outline Drawing on page
12.
