3.9 Leak Checking Sample Lines
Perform a leak check of the sample lines following
installation and also whenever a line is changed or
moved. The leak check procedure involves plugging
the end of the sample line and verifying that there is
no flow through the line. To perform a leak check:
1. Put the affected Analyzer in Idle mode.
2. Choose Main Screen, Menu, Service,
Authorized Service.
3. Select Analyzer.
4. Press pump on.
5. Securely plug the end of the sample line being
tested.
6. Verify that the flow rate for the test line drops to
zero. See Flow (cc/min) on page 3-36.
7. Verify that the sample Point Vacuum equals
the Supply Vacuum within a tolerance of +/-0.5
inches Hg (see Point Vacuum (in Hg)) on page
3-36.
8. “Verify that the sample flow is less than 20cc.”
“See Flow (cc/min)” and “(see Point Vacuum (in
Hg)) are links.
9. After testing all points on the selected analyzer,
press Pump Off.
Note:
You must touch the Pumps On button even if the
pumps are operating. Touching Pumps On turns on
the solenoid valve to provide vacuum to the analyzer.
A sample point failing to meet both the flow and vacuum
conditions of step 7 indicates either a leak in the sample
line or a faulty sample inlet connection.
To troubleshoot the condition, disconnect the sample
line at the inlet port at the top of the Vertex M cabinet.
Securely plug the inlet port and repeat the above leak
check procedure.
If the sample point passes the test with the top port
plugged, the leak is somewhere in the sample line and
the line must be replaced. If the sample point fails the
leak check procedure with the top inlet port plugged,
contact Honeywell Analytics for assistance.

Reconfigure
The modular design of the Vertex M allows limited
reconfiguration. All wiring and tubing is in place behind
unpopulated slots. To add modules:
1. Remove filler panel.
2. Install new analyzer. See
Section 5.4
Replacing an Analyzer
.
3. Configure new analyzer. See
Section 3.6
Configuration Utility
.
4. Load tape. See
Section 3.7 Load Tape
.
5. Leak check sample lines. See
Section 3.9 Leak
Checking Sample Lines
.
6. Verify flow rates. See
Section 3.8 Verify Flow
Rates and Supply Vacuum
.
Note:
Any analyzers which are physically installed but not
included in the configuration should be de-energized.
