What is a Dilution Fitting?

From RKI Instruments, Inc.

A typical dilution fitting is a plumbing device that is attached to a gas detection instrument sample inlet port, and then the sample hose is attached to the dilution fitting. When used, the sample flow going into the instrument passes through the dilution fitting. The dilution fitting has 2 small holes; one is in the sample gas stream path, and the second is through the side of the fitting and causes the instrument to take in ambient air.

Gas Sensors
Gas sensors interact with a gas to initiate the measurement of its concentration. The sensor then provides output to an instrument to display the measurements.
Gas Instruments
Gas instruments detect, monitor or analyze gases present in an environment.
Combustion Analyzers
Combustion analyzers and flue gas analyzers measure the gas content of emissions in order to monitor the combustion efficiency of fuel-burning equipment.
