To test for leaks in the Manual Pressure Control system
1. Turn the sample selection valve to the CLOSE SAMPLE position.
2. Make sure the FTIR OUTLET valve is in the OPEN FTIR OUTLET position.
3. Close the FTIR INLET needle valve completely and open the FTIR OUTLET needle valve com-
pletely.
4. Turn on the vacuum pump.
The pressure will drop down to a minimum value (likely between 0 and 10 mmHg, but the value
can vary with different configurations).
5. Close the FTIR OUTLET needle valve so that no more vacuum is applied to the gas cell.
Pressure in the gas cell should remain constant with a leak rate less than 2 to 3 mmHg per
minute.
