tained in  the  ^opropriate  attachment.  Permanent  changes  to  this  schedule  must  be  approved  by 
HQ  prior  to  implementation. 
2-2.  Air  Supply  Requirements.  The  ACR  will  normally  operate  on  outside  air   througn  no  more 
than  100  feet  of  3/8  inch  tubing.  A  waiver  must  be  obtained  from  HQ  for  any  unit  to  operate 
permanently  on  inside  air.  The  unit  will  concentrate  any  gas  or   vapor  having  a  boiling  point 
nigher  than  that  of  liquid  oxygen.  The  unit  should  ne^er   be  installed  where  the  air  may  be 
appreciably  contaminated  with  flammable  gases  or  vapors,  or  solvent  vapor.   It  must  never  be 
operated  where  it  may  take  in  vapors  from  metal  or  electric  cleaning,  floor  wax,  or  paint 
spraying  operations,  or  where  acetylene  is  being  used  or  generated. 
2-3.  Terms  Defined: 
a.  Sample  Run.  The  time  period  from  the  start  of  sample  collection  until  sample  isolation 
period  is  completed.  It  consists  of  the  sample  collection  period  and  the  Sample  Isolation 
Period  (SIP).  A  sample  run  ends  at  the  completion  of  SIP. 
(1)  Odiiy  sample  runs  will  begin  each  day  at  the  time  designated  in   the  attachment  and 
will  end  24  hours  later. 
(2)  Twice-weekly  sample  runs  will  begin  each  Monday  and  Thursday  at  the  time 
designated  in  the  attachment  and  will  end  72  and  96  hours  later,  respectively. 
b.  Sample  Collection.  The  time  period  from  the  start  of  the  sample  run  to  the  start  of 
sample  isolation.  Under  normal  operation,  this  period  will  be  23.5  hours  for  a  1-day  run  or 
95.5  hours  for  a  4-day  run.  During  Delayed  Start  Mode  [DSM)  sample  collection  does  not 
start  until  the  selected  Delayed  Start  Time  (DST)  is  reached. 
c.  Sample  Isolation  Period  'SIP).  The  time  during  which  the  sample  is  isolated  and  the 
unit  readies  itself  for  the  next  sample  collect  lor.   period.  The  sample  isolation  period  will 
always  be  30  minutes  regardless  of  the  length  of  the  sample  collection  period  and  will  consist 
of  the  following  distinct  functions. 
(1)  Sample  Recovery  Period  (SRP).  The  time  during  which  the  desired  product  is  iso- 
lated into  the  sample  container.  The  length  of  SRP  will  always  be  10  minutes  regardless  of  the 
length  of  the  sample  collection  period.  Normal  pressure  is  20  to  26  pressure  per  square  inch 
guage  (PSIG). 
(2)  Cool  Down  Period.  The  time  during  which  the  unit  cools  down  to  operating  tem- 
perature. The  length  of  cool  down  period  will  always  be  20  minutes  regardless  of  length  of  the 
sample  collection  period. 
d.  System  Controls  and  Front  Panel  Indicators: 
(1)  Clock  Display.  Displays  local  time  in  24  hour  format.  It  is  used  to  synchronize 
certain  control  system  functions  with  local  time. 
(2)  Fast  Set.  Minutes  advance  at  60  Hz  rate.  Seconds  Counter  not  affected. 
(3)  Slow  Set.  Minutes  advance  at  2  Hz  rate  and  seconds  Counter  is  reset  to  :00.  When 
Slow  and  Fast  Set  are  simultaneously  depressed,  Hours  and  Minutes  are  reset  to  0:00. 
(4)  DST.  When  Delayed  Start  Time  is  depressed,  start  time  is  displayed  and  can  be 
changed  by  use  of  Fast  and  Slow  Set  switches. 
(5)  DSM.  When  the  Delayed  Start  Mode  switch  is  depressed,  the  unit  will  enter  a 
stand-by  condition.  All  systems  will  continue  to  function  but  there  will  be  no  air  flow.  The 
DSM  light  will  illuminate  and  remain  illuminated  until  actual  sample  collection  begins. 
(6)  Reset.  Resets  all  functions  to  the  start  of  a  sample  collection  cycle. 
(7)  SIP.  When  depressed  will  start  a  sample  isolation  period.  This  will  not  alter  or 
restart  a  sample  collection  cycle;  however,  the  sample  position  will  be  incremented.

and  should  be  made  within  30  minutes  of  the  same  time  each  day.  Once  times  are  established, 
they  should  not  be  changed  without  Parent  Unit  approval. 
a.  Daily  locations  will  record  periodic  equipment  readings  between  four  hours  after  the 
start  of  sample  collection  and  prior  to  the  start  of  SIP  each  day.  During  nonduty  days,  the 
readings  will  be  taken  if  at  all  possible;  however,  if  the  operator  must  make  a  special  trip 
for  this  purpose,  these  readings  may  be  omitted. 
b.  Twice-weekly  locations  will  record  periodic  equipment  readings  4  to  23  hours  after  the 
start  of  sample  collection  of  the  first  day  of  the  sample  run,  once  each  duty  day  thereafter, 
and  before  the  start  of  SIP  on  sample  collection  day.  Weekend  readings  will  be  taken  whenever 
possible;  however,  if  the  operator  must  make  a  special  trip  for  this  purpose,  the  weekend 
readings  may  be  omitted. 
c.  All  locations  will : 
(1)  Record  a  complete  set  of  readings  taken  approximately  9  minutes  into  SIP  once  each 
week. 
(2)  Record  a  set  of  readings  immediately  prior  to  any  maintenance  affecting  sample 
integrity. 
(3)  Record  a  set  of  readings  4  to  23  hours  after  resuming  normal  operation  following 
extended  equipment  outage.

a.  Remove  the  protective  covers  from  the  quick-disconnect  fitting  of  the  container  to  be 
checked.  Check  each  container  by  inserting  the  hand-neld  pressure  gauge  into  the  quick- 
disconnect.   If  the  pressure  is  at  least  10  PS IG,  vent  the  container  to  atmosphere  by  opening 
the  manual  relief   valve.  Open  and  close  the  relief  valve  three  or  four  times  to  ensure  the 
concainer  is  completely  vented.   If  the  container  pressure  is  less  than  iO  PSIG,  process  the 
container  I AW  paragraph  3-2d  and  select  and  check  another  container  from  stock.  Continue 
pressure  checking  and  venting  until  the  required  number  of  containers  have  been  tested, 
'/•isually  inspect  each  quick-disconnect  for  cleanliness  and  obvious  damage. 
b.  Identify  each  container  IAW  paragraph  3-2. 
c.  Complete  Sections  I  and  II  on  a  separate  CEM  Form  33  for  each  sample  container.  Ensure 
the  position  numbers  entered  in  Section  I  match  the  numbers  placed  on  the  container. 
2-8.  Sample  Container  Installation.  To  load  the  sample  tray  with  sample  containers: 
a.  Select  the  container  marked  number  1  in  step  2-7b  above. 
b.  With  the  container  in   hand,  visually  compare  the  sample  identification  data  marked  on 
the  container  with  the  appropriate  CEN  Form  33.  The  number  placed  on  the  container  will 
correspond  with  the  sample  position  number  entered  in  Section   I  of   the  CEH  Form   33. 
c.  Install  the  number  1  container  on  sample  tray  position  ONE  by  aligning  the  quick- 
disconnect  of  the  container  with  the  disconnect  on  the  sample  tray  and  push  up  until  the  con- 
nections are   seated. 
d.  Continue  in  this  manner  until  all  required  sample  containers  have  been  loaded  onto 
their  respective  numbered  disconnects. 
e.  Visually  inspect  the  entire  sample  tray  to  double  check  the  individual  numbers  placed 
on   the  containers  match  with  the  sample  tray  position  numbers. 
f.  Depress  the  sample  reset  to  advance  the  IN  USE  indicator  from  number  EIGHT  to  number 
ONE.  (NOTE:   If  the  IN  USE  indicator  is  in  any  position  other  than  EIGHT,  depress  the  advance 
switch  until  number  EIGHT  is  illuminated,  then  depress  the  reset.) 
CAUTION:   If  the  IN  USE  indicator  is  left  in  position  EIGHT,  the  ACR  will  not  automati- 
cally enter  SIP  but  will  continue  to  sample  indefinitely. 
2-9.  Sample  Recovery.  If  an  outage  in  excess  of  one  hour  becomes  necessary  after  the  unit  is 
nine  or  more   hours  into  the  sample  run,  demand  SIP  to  recover  the  sample  and  forward  the  con- 
tainer to  the  laboratory  for  processing.  If  the  unit  has  not  been  operating  for  at  least  nine 
hours,  remove  the  container  and  return   to  Depot  or  Parent   Unit  IAW  paragraph  3-2d.  For  restart 
procedures  refer  to  paragraph  2-12. 
2-10.  Shutdown  Procedures .  \   scheduled  unit  shutdown  could  occur  any  time  for  many  reasons 
{preventive  or  corrective  maintenance,  extended  power  loss,  etc.).  Perform  the  following  for 
scheduled  unit  shutdown: 
a.  If  possible,  recover  the  sample  by  depressing  the  Sample  Isolation  Switch  at  least  30 
minutes  prior  to  the  shutdown.  Refer  to  sample  recovery  in  paragraph  2-9. 
b.  After  SIP,  remove  all  sample  containers  which  have  collected  usable  samples. 
c.  Place  the  battery  switch  in   the  OFF  position,  then  place  the  main  power  circuit  breaker 
in  the  OFF  position. 
d.  Turn  HV4  fully  counterclockwise. 
e.  If  the  last  sample  collection  was  for  a  minimum  of  9  hours,  forward  the  container  for 
processing. 
f.  If  the  last  sample  collection  was  for  less  than  9  hours,  or  if  sample  recovery  was 
not  possible  prior  to  unit  shutdown,  return  the  container  to  the  Parent  Unit  marked  IAW 
paragraph  3-2d.
CEMR  66-1,  Vol  XIV    14  January  1987  2-5 
2-11.  Power  Outage.  Scheduled  or  unscheduled  power  outages  may  occur  anytime  during  the 
sample  run.  Total  outage  and  inclusive  times,  if   known,  will  be  recorded  in  the  Remarks 
Section  of  CEN  Form  33.  The  system  logic  is  maintained  by  the  battery  and  automatically  com- 
pensates for  short  duration  power  failures.  This  will  not  affect  the  normal  completion  time 
for  the  next  sample  run.  The  following  instructions  apply  for  all  types  of  outages: 
a.  For  scheduled  power  outages  in  excess  of  one  hour: 
(1)  Recover  the  sample  IAW  paragraph  2-9,  30  minutes  prior  to  the  scheduled  outage. 
(2)  Shut  down  unit  IAW  paragraph  2-10  after  completion  of  Sample  Recovery. 
(3)  When  power  returns,  restart  IAW  paragraph  2-12. 
(4)  Record  all  actions  in  the  remarks  section  of  CEN  Form  33. 
b.  For  scheduled  and  unscheduled  power  outages  of  less  than  one  hour,  when  the  power 
returns,  record  the  inclusive  times  in  the  remarks  section  of  CEN  Form  33  if  known.  No  other 
action  is  required. 
c.  For  unscheduled  power  outages  in  excess  of  one  hour,  no  action  is  required  unless  power 
is  expected  to  be  off  for  over  12  hours.  Then  place  the  Battery  Switch  and  the  Main  Power 
Circuit  Breaker  to  the  OFF  position.  Turn  HY4  fully  counter  clockwise.  When  power  returns, 
restart  unit  IAW  paragraph  2-12.  Record  all  actions  in  the  Remarks  Section  of  the  CEN  Form  33. 
A  CEN  Form  33  is  required  even  if  no  sample  is  collected.  For  unscheduled  power  outages  over 
48  hours,  replace  the  9  volt  DC  battery  IAW  TI  3D-ACR-1. 
2-12.  Restart  Procedures: 
a.  Place  the  Main  Power  Circuit  Breaker  to  the  ON  position. 
b.  Place  the  Battery  Switch  to  the  ON  position. 
c.  Ensure  all  solenoid  valve  and  compressor  switches  are  in  the  AUTO  position,  then 
depress  the  System  Reset  Switch. 
d.  Enter  the  correct  local  time  into  the  system  clock  using  the  FAST  SET  and  SLOW  SET 
switches. 
e.  Depress  and  hold  the  DELAYED  START  TIME  (DST)  switch.  Enter  the  time  you  desire 
sample  collection  to  start  usiny  the  FAST  SET  and  SLOW  SET  switches.  Release  the  DST  switch 
when  the  time  has  been  set. 
NOTE:  When  calculating  a  desired  DST,  include  a  3  hour  cool  down  period.  This  will  allow 
sample  collection  to  resume  exactly  at  the  selected  time.  The  DST  must  be  on  the  start  of  an 
hour  because  the  CYCLE  TIME  SELECT  tumblers  can  only  be  programmed  in  whole  hours.  Example: 
Unit  is  restarted  at  1445L.  The  DST  will  be  at  1800.  Refer  to  the  table  in  figure  2-1. 
f.  Depress  the  DELAYED  START  MODE  (DSM)  switch.  The  DSM  light  will  illuminate  and 
remain  illuminated  until  actual  sample  collection  begins.  The  unit  is  now  in  a  standby  con- 
dition. All  systems  continue  to  function  but  there  will  be  no  air  flow. 
g.  Enter  on  the  CYCLE  TIME  SELECT  tumblers,  the  number  of  hours  that  will  elapse  between 
the  DST  selected  and  the  end  of  the  sample  collection  period.  The  hours  entered  on  the  CYCLE 
TIME  SELECT  tumblers  will  not  be  entered  into  the  system  logic  (down  counter)  until  the  DST 
occurs.  (NOTE:  You  will  usually  be  programming  a  short  collection  period  to  return  to  the 
normal  sample  collection  cycle.) 
h.  After  the  selected  DST  occurs,  you  must  program  the  next  sample  run  length  by  changing 
the  CYCLE  TIME  SELECT  tumblers  to  the  desired  sample  collection  period.  The  tumblers  must  be 
changed  before  the  next  SIP  ends.  This  new  cycle  time  will  automatically  be  entered  into  the 
logic  after  the  next  SIP  when  sample  collection  begins.  This  should  be  the  standard  collection 
period. 
i.  Allow  the  ACR  to  operate  for  at  least  15  minutes  with  HV4  fully  counterclockwise. 
This  will  allow  the  helium  and  compressor  temperatures  to  stabilize.  After  the  stabilization 
period,  slowly  adjust  HV4  clockwise  until  the  proper  helium  differential  is  achieved. 
j.  Check  visually  and  audibly  for  normal  unit  operation.  If  the  ACR  has  been  off  for 
some  time  it  will  take  several  hours  for  all  readings  to  stabilize.  The  main  concern  should  be 
for  unusual  sounds,  smells  or  incorrect  pressure  readings.  Minor  adjustments  are  normal  during 
initial  start-up  after  extended  periods  of  outage  until  the  ACR  temperatures  stabilize.

i.   Ensure  the  SAMPLE  I'i   USE  indicator  is  illuminated  for  the  desired  sample  container.   If 
not,  use  the  sample  advance  switch  to  select  the  proper  sample  container. 
m.  For  stations  on  a  daily  sampling  schedule: 
(i)  Set  the  CYCLE  TIME  SELECT  tumblers  for  24  hours,  after  the  selected  DST  occurs. 
(2)  Record  a  set  of  readings  between  5  hours  after  resuming  normal  operation  and 
prior  to  the  next  SIP. 
(3)  The  unit  is  now  on  an  automatic  cycle  and  SIP  will  occur  daily  during  the  last  30 
minutes  of  sample  collection  . 
(4)  If  necessary,  submit  a  sample  verification  run  I AW  paragraph  2-13. 
(5)  Process  any  short  cycle  sample  containers  I AW  paragraph  3-2c  or  3-2d,  as 
appropriate. 
n.  For  stations  on  other  than  daily  sampling  schedule: 
(1)  If  sample  quality  is  suspect  due  to  maintenance  or  equipment  malfunction: 
(a)  Set  the  CYCLE  TIME  SELECT  tumblers  for  24  hours,  after  the  selected  DST 
occurs.  This  24  hour  run  will  be  used  as  a  sample  verification  run  and  will  be  submitted  IAW 
paragraph  2-13. 
(b)  Once  the  24  hour  run  has  begun,  set  the  CYCLE  TIME  SELECT  tumblers  to  the 
number  of  hours  required  to  return  the  ACR  to  the  normal  sample  run  schedule. 
(c)  Process  any  short  cycle  sample  containers  IAW  paragraph  3-2c  or  3-2d,  as 
appropriate. 
(2)  If  sample  quality  is  not  suspect: 
(a)  Set  the  CYCLE  TIME  SELECT  tumblers,  after  the  selected  DST  occurs,  to  the 
number  of  hours  required  to  return  the  ACR  to  the  normal  sample  run  schedule. 
(b)  Record  a  set  of  readings  at  least  5  hours  after  resuming  normal  operation. 
2-13.  Sample  Verification  Runs: 
a.  One  full  24-hour  sample  verification  run  is  required  following  periods  of  maintenance 
or  an  equipment  malfunction  which  caused  sample  integrity  to  be  suspect,  such  as  coldhead  main- 
tenance. If  a  partial  collection  of  at  least  9  hours  was  made  following  unit  restart  and 
prior  to  the  start  of  the  full  24-hour  verification  run,  it,  too,  will  be  marked  and  submitted

SAMPLE  REQUIREMENTS 
3-1.   Sample  Collection  Requirements.   The  ACR  is  designed  to  collect  five  cuuic  centimeters 
tec)    per  day   at  a  flew  rate  of  8.3-9.2,  for  sample  runs  of  four  days  or  less.  Performance  below 
these  general  guidelines  usually  indicates  a  need  for  maintenance.  The  following  chart  lists 
sample  requirements  for  the  ACR.  These  figures  will  be  used  to  monitor  unit  output.  HQ  will 
forward  to  the  Parent  Unit  marginal  and  unusable  results  by  message  when  received  from  the 
laboratory.  After  any  run  with  marqmal  or  unusable  results,  the  equipment  should  be  kept 
under  close  supervision.  UnexpiM.ted  marginal  or  unusable  results  may  indicate  that  main- 
tenance is  required.  Ensure  an  ESR  has  been  submitted  for  all  unusable  results  due  to  equip- 
ment mal function.

3-2.  Sample  Container  Identification: 
a.  Ensure  the  new  sample  containers  are  identified  prior  to  installation  by  placing  a  6 
inch  piece  of  3/4  inch  printable  tape  vertically  on  each  container.  Number  the  required  amount 
of  containers  consecutively  beginning  with  the  number  1.  Place  the  number  near   the  top  of  the 
container  tape  using  a  waterproof  felt  tip  pen.  Ballpoint  pens  or  non-waterproof  felt  tip 
markers  will  not  be  used  as  they  tend  to  smear,  making  container  identification  data  illegible. 
Avoid  using  other  types  of  tape,  such  as  masking  tape,  or  writing  directly  on  the  container  as 
residual  adhesive  and  felt  tip  markings  are  difficult  to  remove. 
b.  Label  each  container  with  data  extracted  from  Section  II  of  the  CEN  Form  33  by  writing 
the  data  on  the  container  tape  in  the  following  order:  Blocks  4-6;  dash,  Blocks  7-3;  dash, 
Blocks  9-ll;dash,  Block  13;  dash,  Block  14  (if  other  than  the  preprinted  G).  For  example, 
800-86-181-1.  Leave  spaces  between  the  sample  identification  and  the  container  position 
number. 
c.  In  addition  to  the  routine  sample  identification  data,  containers  sent  to  the  labora- 
tory for  processing  immediately  following  equipment  maintenance,  or  when  equipment  operation  is 
suspect,  will  be  marked  as  follows  on  separate  pieces  of  printable  tape: 
(1)  Type  of  maintenance  performed  (i.e.,  Sample  Air  System,  Helium  System,  etc.). 
(2)  EXPEDITE. 
d.  Defective  containers  which  are  being  returned  to  Depot  or  Parent  Unit  will  be  marked 
with  a  piece  of  printable  tape  stating  the  reason  for  return.  Applicable  reasons  are: 
(1)  Low  pressure  -  less  than  10  PSIG. 
(2)  Used  during  maintenance. 
(3)  Removed  because  of  column  blockage. 
(4)  Installed  on  unit  for  less  than  9  hours. 
3-3.  Sample  Container  Shipment.  After  the  sample  run  is  complete  and  the  sample  container  is 
removed,  prepare  the  containe-  for  shipment  as  follows  to  the  address  listed  in  the  attachment: 
a.  Ensure  the  sample  container  serial  number  is  recorded  on  the  CEN  Form  33. 
b.  Ensure  the  sample  container  mail  date  is  recorded  on  the  CEN  Form  33, 
c.  Ensure  the  sample  container  is  properly  identified  and  the  identification  data  tape 
matches  the  information  on  the  accompanying  CEN  Form  33.

d.  Pack  tne  sample  container  and  one  copy  of  the  CEN  Fern  33  securely  in  the  shipping  box 
provided. 
e.  Apply  outer  labels  as  required. 
f.  All  sample  containers  will  be  sent  priority  mail.  Ensure  "PRIORITY  MAIL"  is  stamped  on 
the  outer  wrapping. 
g.  Ensure  sample  containers  are  prepared  and  forwarded  I AW  procedures  in  the  attachment  as 
socn  as  possible  once  removed  from  the  unit.  Sample  containers  will  not  be  held  en  site  but 
will  be  forwarded  as  often  as  local  mail  permits. 
3-4.  Sample  Results  Reporting.  ACR  sample  results  will  be  forwarded  to  each  Parent  Unit  via 
the  consolidated  laboratory  report.  Parent  Units  will  develop  local  procedures  for  dissemi- 
nating sample  data  to  each  location,  based  on  individual  requirements. 
3-5.  Production  Effectiveness.  Production  effectiveness  is  computed  monthly  for  each  opera- 
tional unit  based  on  the  quality  and  number  of  samples  recovered  and  submitted  for  analysis. 
These  figures  will  be  used  to  determine  the  overall  efficiency  of  the  network  and  indicate 
individual  areas  in  need  of  corrective  action.  The  formula:
