6. High Flow Test:
a. Access the Gas Delivery Schematic.
b. Open the cylinder valve for the regulator being tested.
c. Set Total Flow of the tested gas to 10 l/min.
The test device reading must be greater than:
( ( ( ( 6 6 6 6 0 0 0 0 ) ) ) ) D D D D I I I I N N N N 221 kPa (32 psi)
( ( ( ( 5 5 5 5 0 0 0 0 ) ) ) ) P P P P i i i i n n n n I I I I n n n n d d d d e e e e x x x x e e e e d d d d 221 kPa (32 psi)
- If the test device reading under "high flow" conditions is less than
specified, readjust the regulator per the procedure in Section 5.1.3;
however, set the regulated pressure higher by the difference you
noted in this step plus 7 kPa (1 psi). This adjusts the "low flow"
regulated output to the high side of the specification so that the
"high flow" regulated pressure can fall within the specification.
- If the regulator subsequently fails the "low flow" specification
(step 5d) because the reading is too high, replace the cylinder
supply.
7. Set the system switch to Standby.
8. Close the cylinder valve.
9. Bleed the system of all pressure.
10. Disconnect the test device and plug the test port (pull on the plug to
ensure it is locked in the fitting).
11. Replace the rear panel.
12. Perform the checkout procedure (Section 3).
