8.31 Liquid Leaks from TC Components
•
Leaking fitting
Locate the source of the leak. Tighten or, if necessary, replace the liquid
line connection (see Section 9.29 ).
•
Broken liquid line
Replace the line with tubing of the same length and internal diameter (see
Section 9.29 ).
•
Blocked or improperly installed line
Make sure the lines are not crimped or otherwise blocked. Also, make
sure the waste line is not elevated at any point after it exits the TC. If a
line is blocked, replace it (see
Section 9.29 ).
•
Leaking injection valve
1. Make sure the liquid line connections to the valve are tight. Replace
any damaged fittings (see Section 9.29 ).
2. Liquid leaks from behind the valve stator may indicate a scratched
rotor seal. Rebuild the injection valve (see Section 9.31 ).
•
Leaking temperature stabilizer
1. Tighten the fittings on the temperature stabilizer inlet and outlet.
2. If tightening the fittings does not eliminate the leak, excessive system
backpressure may be the source of the problem. Follow the
troubleshooting steps in
Section 8.9 to reduce the backpressure.
