Recording Tank Levels
1.
Record the injection start time and feed tank level.
Record the feed tank’s starting fluid
level in millimeters (mm) from the
bottom of the meniscus in the sight
gauge.
Record the injection start time.
Enter this information into
Knomentous.

Read the level from the
bottom of the fluid meniscus.
Starting the Injection
1.
Flow check.
Verify flow into the cable by looking at the BBs in the liquid flow meter.
The BBs should rise to the top of the glass tube when flow starts and then slowly drop as flow
stabilizes.
If the BBs are dropping rapidly, there is a restriction in the cable.
Verify flow through the cable by checking the tubing on the receiver end of the cable.
Build up pressure in the line or submerge it into fluid.
Relieving the built up pressure should be audible, and air flow should cause bubbles in the fluid.
Bubbles may appear slowly due to restrictions in the cable.
2.
Flush water and other fluids.
If water or other fluids are in the cable,
you may need to empty the receiver
bottle or tank multiple times during
injection.
To measure the flushed fluid, transfer all
fluid to a graduated flush bottle, if not
already in one.
Let the bottle sit for a few minutes. Water
and other fluids should separate if left
still.
Read the water and fluid levels on the
side of the bottle.

Transfer all fluids collected in the 140mL tank
to a graduated flush bottle.
