The smooth ID of the tube will allow the debris to be removed easily. To remove the photometer tube, loosen the knurled knob on the lamp end of the photometer bench by rotating counter clockwise. After reinstalling the tube, run the leak test. REMOVING PHOTOMETER TUBE KNURLED NUT JANUARY 2009 6103 SERVICE MANUAL...
ROUTINE MAINTENANCE (CONTINUED) LEAK TEST The 6103 has an automated Leak Test function, to determine if the system has any internal leaks. To run the Leak Test: 1. Be sure there is a source of gas connected to Port 1 at 25 PSIG.
5. Perform steps 3 and/or 4 until the intensity values are within the range of 500K to 850K. 6. If the locations for the sample and reference frequencies are filled with asterisks, then the INTEG time is set to high. Lower the INTEG TIME value to recover. JANUARY 2009 6103 SERVICE MANUAL...
6. Connect air or nitrogen to Port 1 for MFC1 and Port 2 for MFC2. Adjust the input pressure to approximately 25 PSIG. Connect the OUTPUT PORT of the 6103 to a suitable flow standard. Environics’ calibration is NIST traceable, using a primary flow standard accurate to .2% of reading.

The span (full scale) of the MFC has been factory adjusted to generate 100% to 103% of set-point. The reference temperature used on the Environics’ flow standard is 77 F(25 C). The MFC span potentiometer is accessed through the top of two holes on the back of the MFC case;...

SYSTEM mode. Select CALIBRATE ADC Enter 04. NOTE: This is the 6103 ADC cal table for the temperature sensor circuit on the PC415. The live reading (ADC 04 RESP) in this table is a voltage. The voltage times a factor of 10 is the temperature in degrees C.
SYSTEM mode. Select CALIBRATE ADC. Enter 6. NOTE: This is the 6103 ADC cal table for the pressure transducer circuit on the PC415. The live reading (ADC RESP) in this table is a voltage and the scale of the circuit is 0 to 5 VDC for 0 to 30 PSIA. The live reading should normally be between 2.3 and 2.5 VDC (13.8 to 15 PSIA)
A temperature meter with exposed junction thermocouple will be best. Remove the photometer tube from the 6103 under test. 2. From one of three main menus, on the 6103 front panel, select the SYSTEM mode. 3. Select CALIBRATE ADC 4.
A certified pressure standard will be necessary for this calibration. Ensure that the VENT port is open to atmosphere. 2. From one of three main menus, on the 6103 front panel, select the SYSTEM mode. 3. Select CALIBRATE ADC.
The value fed back from this ADC does not impact the photometer reading. 1. From one of three main menus, on the 6103 front panel, select the SYSTEM mode. 2. Select CALIBRATE ADC 3.
4. EXIT back out of the SYSTEM mode and press the SYSTEM key. A prompt should appear for a password entry. 5. Enter the previously selected 4 digit numeric password to verify the process. 6. Once the password is entered, entry into the SYSTEM mode should be automatic. JANUARY 2009 6103 SERVICE MANUAL...
