Abstract:
Installation for analyzing the level of at least one element, from at least two initial gas sources comprising:at least two sources of initial gases to be analyzed;at least two tapping lines, each line being connected in an upstream part thereof to one of said initial gas sources, and in a downstream part thereof to a respective flow-directing component;at least two discharge lines, each discharge line being connected in an upstream part thereof to one of said directing components and in a downstream part thereof to a discharge or to a storage point;at least two secondary lines, each secondary line being connected in an upstream part thereof to one of said directing components and in a downstream part thereof to a collection point,wherein each directing component is capable of directing a sample from the initial gas source which is associated with the directing component to the respective discharge line associated with the directing component or to the collection point via the respective secondary line associated with the directing component;a tertiary line, connected in an upstream part thereof to the collection point and in a downstream part thereof to a discharge or to a storage point; andat least one analysis line, connected in an upstream part thereof to the tertiary line and in a downstream part thereof to at least one analyzer.
