CHOICE
Cause:
The sample being analyzed failed to equilibrate in 1000
seconds.
Action:
Check the system carefully for leaks as described in
Checking the Cell and Expansion Chambers for Leaks
later in this chapter. Make sure the sample is properly
prepared before performing an analysis.
Cause:
Sample (foams, organics, etc.) absorbs helium slowly.
Action:
Set the equilibration rate to progressively higher values un-
til reasonable equilibration times (15 sec to 120 sec) are
achieved.
Cause:
There was insufficient pressure to allow filling within five
minutes during an analysis.
Action:
Increase the regulator pressure or, if there is insufficient
helium in the tank, obtain a new tank of helium.
