Page 10: Testing
Testing Check the regulator for leakage across the seat, with low- and high inlet pressure. Check the regulator for leakage across the diaphragm, with low- and high outlet pressure. A well performing BD(H)F40 is 100 % bubble tight. If there is a leakage across the seat or the diaphragm, the damaged parts must be replaced. -
Page 11: Troubleshooting
