The following description status and definitions are standard for all start-up
diagnostics. Additionally, each test group will have status results that will narrow
down the possibilities for troubleshooting.

Carrier Pressure Regulator Test

If Col 1 or Col 2 carrier pressure test failed, the following procedure will step the
user through the troubleshooting process. On occasion, these instructions may
detour to other procedures, and, when complete, the user should return to these
procedures to continue.
6.2.2.1
These alarms are indicative of low carrier pressure. The causes range from a
closed carrier bottle regulator to a blockage inside the GC module.
6.2.2.2
The following descriptive status and definitions are applicable for only the carrier
pressure regulator test and are in addition to those defined for all start-up
diagnostics.
Low Reg Pressure
Flow Blocked
Pressure Reg Test
2101510 Rev. AG
Totalflow has performed extensive testing on each
NGC8200 prior to shipment, and each unit is factory-
calibrated using our standard calibration blend.
During the stream test, streams with no gas pressure will
fail, and they will be disabled in the stream sequence. To
enable these streams, click Stream Setup on the Analyzer
Operation screen.
Status
No tests are running.
Test(s) are in progress.
Basic and/or additional tests, if required, passed.
The basic test failed plus additional more in-depth
tests were run and also failed.
Tests were aborted by the user using the Abort
command.
Description
Status
Status
Pressure is too low to continue the test. Possible
causes are the carrier bottle is low, the regulator on the
carrier bottle needs to be turned up to 90 PSIG, carrier
line from the bottle to the NGC is plugged, etc.
A blockage was sensed during one of the tests. The
flow test was run in an attempt to dislodge the blockage
but was not successful. See flow test below.
This is an additional test that is in progress because the
basic test failed. A different status will be displayed
after the test has finished.
