POWER UP AND VERIFICATION 

2.4.1

 

APPLY THE HIGH PRESSURE SUPPLY 

 

 

This section assumes that the GPC1 system has already been set up, including pressure 
interconnection (see Section 2.3.1). 

 

Proceed as follows (numerical references refer to Section 3.1, Figure 6): 

  Fully back off the 

TEST INLET SET regulator

 (5). 

 Close 

the 

TEST INLET valve

 (12). 

 

Open the 

TEST OUTLET valve

 (15). 

  Apply the high pressure supply to the 

SUPPLY port 

(1). 

 

 

Highly pressurized gas can be extremely hazardous.  Before applying pressure to GPC1 
and/or the system connected to it, be sure that all pressure vessels and connections are 
rated for the pressure levels that will be applied and that all connections have been 
properly tightened (see Section 2.4.5).  Ensure that the GPC1 TEST INLET SET regulator 
is fully backed off and the INLET valve is closed (see Section 2.4.1). 

 

2.4.2

 

ADJUST INLET PRESSURE  

 

 

This section assumes that the GPC1 system has already been set up, including pressure 
interconnection (see Section 2.3.1). 

 

 

Be sure the INLET valve is CLOSED before adjusting the TEST INLET SET regulator.  If the 
INLET valve is open, the supply pressure will be admitted to GPC1 components and  
TEST ports. 

 

Turn the 

TEST INLET SET regulator 

clockwise while observing the 

TEST INLET gauge

.  

Set the pressure as indicated by the 

TEST INLET gauge 

to the desired maximum  

test pressure.  The pressure set by the 

TEST INLET SET regulator

 is applied to the inlet of 

the 

INLET valve

2.4.3

 

APPLY PDVV DRIVE PRESSURE 

 

 

This section assumes that the GPC1 system has already been set up, including pressure 
interconnections (see Section 2.3). 

 

Apply drive pressure to the 

PDVV DRIVE port

.  See Section 2.3.2, Table 2 to determine the 

necessary PDVV drive pressure value.
