 TM 2012-005 REV00 © 10/25/2012 

 

New Container Setup Guide for Test Settings 

Step 

Procedure description 

1.  Adjust probe 

and fill 
pressure 

To start adjust the probe pressure to 20 LBS, and the Fill pressure to 1 PSI. This may 

change later on in the procedures. 

The probe and fill pressure is adjusted by using 
the adjustment knobs and gauges located on the 
cabinet above the test probe carriage. 

 

The probe pressure can also be 
viewed in the test pressure settings 
and manual test displays 

2.  Place a 

container under 
a test probe 

Make sure the container is centered under the probe porpely.  

3.  Understanding 

the Fill 
Pressure 
versus the 
container size   

HMI Navigate to the Manual test display

  

To set the fill pressure properly it is necessary to use 
the manual test display. The fill pressure and the fill 
time together will determine the final peak pressure 
obtained during the leak test. “

The goal for an 

accurate leak test is to fill the container in a very 
short amount of time as well as the same amount 
of time regardless of the container size.” 

To 

accomplish this, the pressure flow rate (Fill PSI) must 
be set according to the container size. Typically the 
larger the container the higher the higher the fill 
pressure will need to be. The smaller the container 
the lower the fill pressure setting will need to be. 

4.  Setting Fill 

Pressure 

 
Push Manual 
Test  
 

What to look for when pushing manual test: 

 

Check to ensure green indicating lights all stay green.  
This indicates the pressure in the container fell within 
proper range of .5 to 25 IWC for part pressure, and it also 
met the peak pressure range requirements.  The peak 
pressure dial indicator should also fall as close to in-
between the min and max range as possible.  
 

If the guage display is similar to this one then the Fill prssure probaly does not need  
adjsutment. 

If any of the indicators turned red or the peak pressure did not fall within range proceed to 
the applicable step 5-9. Otherwise proceed to Step 10
