How to Connect the Sample Inlet and Exhaust on the Bloodhound


This article specifically addresses where one connects the Sample Inlet, and where the Exhaust
should be plumbed on the Bloodhound.


PREREQUSITES:
There are no prerequisites for this article.


GENERAL INFORMATION:

1)  Take a look at the left hand side of the Bloodhound where all of the connections are
     located (see the figure below for what this looks like):


2)  FIND THE SAMPLE INLET FILTER:  First, make sure you have the Sample inlet filter in
     place.  This filter represents the absolute least of protection to the Bloodhound and it
     definitely needs to be in place.  The filter looks something like the image below and it
     should be the last device on your gas line inlet before the Bloodhound:
    


3)  SAMPLE INLET CONNECTION:  Now that you have your line run, and your inlet filter
     on the end of the line, you can plug the sample inlet into the 1/4" brass barb as
     indicated in the figure below:
    


4)  EXHAUST OUTLET:  The large-diameter of the Exhaust outlet is to help avoid icing up of
     the exhaust line.  Plumb your exhaust line with a single-run of 3/4" tubing and run it well
     outside of the trailer.  See the figure below for the location of the exhaust connector:
    

Congratulations!  That is how you connect the inlet and outlet to the Bloodhound!
