Checking for Leaks Associated with the PLC5 

 

How do I know if there is a leak in the system?  Good 
question.  If you have the leaf cuvette closed with no leaf 
present, you should observe a CO

2

 differential (CO2d) close 

to 0 (± 1.0 ppm and stable).  If your CO2d is > ppm and 
fluctuating this usually is the result of a leak.  To help isolate 
the leak and to determine if the leak is associated with the 
TARGAS-1 console or the PLC5, we include a simple “Leaf 
Cuvette Simulator” (Part No. STD553) with each new system 
that can be very helpful.  

 

To checks for leaks, connect the cuvette simulator to the PLC Gas port on the TARGAS-1 console just 
like you would connect the PLC5 gas connector.  This will allow you to sample the same air in both the 
reference and analysis cells of the infrared gas analyzer.  When the simulator is connected to the 
TARGAS-1 you should observe stable CO2r, CO2a, H2Or and H2Oa readings and the CO

2

 differential 

(CO2d) should be close to 0 (± 1.0 ppm and stable). 

If you observe a CO2d value close to 0 and stable with the Leaf Cuvette Simulator and you do not when 
the PLC5 leaf cuvette is connected to the TARGAS-1, the leak is likely associated with the PLC5 leaf 
cuvette.  As described earlier, PLC5 leaks are normally associated with the leaf cuvette gaskets.  To 
isolate the leak, take a small piece of tubing and gently breathe around the gaskets and monitor the 
CO2d on the TARGAS-1 console.  If you see a spike or increase in CO2d you have found the leak.  
Replace or re-seat the gaskets as described above.  Also, you should check to make sure that the head 
is closing and sealing properly.   

If you observe a fluctuating CO2d value that is also > 1.0 ppm with the leaf cuvette simulator connected, 
the leak is likely associated with the TARGAS-1 console.  Normally leaks associated with the console can 
be found around absorber columns especially after a recent change in chemicals.  Gently blow around 
the absorber columns to isolate leaks.
