To purge the flow meter from the pump display
a) On the pump display, select the
Control
menu for the NC pump and select
Purge
( → page 101).
b) Choose Select and Execute to open the Purge screen.
c) On the Purge screen, select Start for the flow meter.
Note the following:
♦ The flow meter is purged for the time specified under Purge Time . The Purge
Time is set on the Preferences menu ( → page 102); the standard setting is 30
minutes. When the specified
Purge Time
has elapsed, the purge cycle is
automatically stopped. You can stop the purge cycle also manually by selecting
Stop on the Purge screen.
♦ To make sure that any air bubbles that might be trapped in the NC pump are
completely removed, observe the information about the purge time further up on
this page.
♦ While the flow meter is being purged, the pressure at the flow meter outlet is
monitored internally. However, the column pressure reading does not reflect the
actual column pressure. As a result, an overpressure condition can occur even
thought the column pressure reading is still 0 bar. In this case, remove any
components from the flow meter outlet that can cause a pressure build-up.
