Close the vacuum pump
Open the piezometer com-
pletely and operate for
10-15min to check if the
pressure of piezometer re-
in -0.1MPa. If the pressure decreases, there may be leakage.

With leakage detector:
Reinstall the handle.

Check if there is leakage with leakage detector.
With soap water:
If leakage detector is not available, please use soap water for leakage detection.
Apply soap water at the suspected position and keep the soap water for more
than 3min. If there are air bubbles coming out of this position, there's a leakage.
