Refer to Gas trains, fig. 34.
1.
Ensure that gas service cock and pilot manual cock are
closed.

Unseal and connect a pressure gauge to test point 10/1
and unseal test point 10/2.
3.
Open and then close the gas service cock to pressurise
up to the 1st safety shut off valve and the pilot manual
cock.
4.
Allow 1 min. for temperature stabilisation and then check
for any loss of pressure during the next 2 minutes.
5.
If there is a pressure loss the pipework up stream of the
1st safety shut off valve should be checked with a suitable
leak detection fluid with the gas service cock open.
6.
If no leak is found, this indicates that the 1st safety shut
off valve is letting by and should be replaced.

With test points 10/1 and 10/2 unsealed connect them
together with a short piece of flexible tubing which incor-
porates a tee connection to the pressure gauge.
