Cleaning and Verifying the Gas Lines
You should always clean the gas line and verify there are no leaks at the connections after you
connect a gas bottle. This test examines the gas line from the instrument to the gas bottle, then
from the instrument to the regulator shut-off valve. A report is generated at the completion of
the test verifying that it has passed or failed. Causes and corrective action for a failure are
provided.
