the sampling outlet.
5.3.10 Observe the falling pressure on the contact
gauge.
5.3.11 When the pressure falls to 14 bar for 100
bar scale, and 68 bar for the 315 scale gauges the
contact will provide an open signal, initiating a
"Reserve Low" alarm on the primary alarm system.
Should this not occur replace the contact gauge
(See section 6.10).
5.3.12 Repeat steps 5.3.8 to 5.3.11 for the
