Product Usage Instructions

Compatibility

The 33-6015RK CO2 scrubber is compatible with both the EAGLE and
EAGLE 2 models.

Installation

  1. Ensure the instrument is powered off.
  2. Locate the CO2 scrubber compartment on the instrument.
  3. Remove the old CO2 scrubber if present.
  4. Insert the new 33-6015RK CO2 scrubber into the compartment
    securely.
  5. Close the compartment securely.
  6. Power on the instrument and check for proper functioning.

Mitigating Sensor Readings Interference

If installing a CO2 scrubber affects sensor readings, follow
these steps:

  1. Obtain a charcoal filter (Part # 33-6092).
  2. Install the charcoal filter between the CO2 scrubber and the
    instrument inlet.
  3. Ensure the charcoal filter is securely in place.
  4. Recheck sensor readings for accuracy.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Why was the 33-6010RK CO2 scrubber discontinued?

A: The 33-6010RK CO2 scrubber was discontinued due to
long-standing production challenges. It has been officially
replaced by the 33-6015RK scrubber.

Q: Is the 33-6015RK compatible with both the EAGLE & EAGLE
2?

A: Yes, the 33-6015RK is compatible with both the EAGLE and
EAGLE 2 models.

Q: Can installing a CO2 scrubber affect sensor readings?

A: Yes, installing a CO2 scrubber on an EAGLE or EAGLE 2 may
affect electrochemical (EC) sensor readings if an EC sensor is
installed in the instrument.

Q: What should be done if EC sensor readings are affected?

A: If sensor readings are impacted, a charcoal filter (Part #
33-6092) should be installed between the CO2 scrubber and the
instrument inlet to mitigate the interference.

EAGLE 2 CO2 Scrubber Replacement
Why was the 33-6010RK CO2 scrubber discontinued? A: The 33-6010RK CO2 scrubber was discontinued due to long-standing production challenges. It has been officially replaced by the 33-6015RK scrubber.
What is different about the 33-6010RK CO2 scrubber? A: Unlike its predecessor, the 33-6015RK does not change color to indicate usage. Instead the filter material begins to turn to powder as its CO2 absorption capacity diminishes.
Is the 33-6015RK compatible with both the EAGLE & EAGLE 2?
· EAGLE: The 33-6015RK CANNOT be installed on the CO2 scrubber bracket of the original EAGLE.
· EAGLE 2: The 33-6015RK CAN be installed on the CO2 scrubber bracket.
Are all previous 33-6010RK configurations available with the new 33-6015RK? A: Yes, the 33-6015RK is available in all configurations previously offered by the 33-6010RK.
Can installing a CO2 scrubber affect sensor readings? A: Yes, installing a CO2 scrubber on an EAGLE or EAGLE 2 may affect electrochemical (EC) sensor readings if an EC sensor is installed in the instrument.
What should be done if EC sensor readings are affected? A: If sensor readings are impacted, a charcoal filter (Part # 33-6092) should be installed between the CO2 scrubber and the instrument inlet to mitigate the interference.
