9.4 LEAK TEST

When running a leak test, the BluFlame will test the system (incl. the

condensate trap/the gas cooler) all the way to the probe tip for leaks.

To do this, the internal gas pump will generate a vacuum that will be measured

with the integrated draft sensor and monitored for a period of 10 seconds.

The magnitude of the observed pressure drop will then be used to determine

whether the system has any leaks.

Running a leak test

Clean the probe tip before the leak test (if there are any deposits

on the surface, the test cap will not create a seal).

• Slide test cap #61382 (for probe tubes with a diameter of 8 mm) over the

probe tip.

• Select the following: Main menu Instrument leak test.

If the leak test is not passed, check the probe and its tubing, as well as the

condensate trap.

If you cannot find any leaks on these external parts, the BluFlame will need

to be checked at a service location. To find your local service location, please

visit www.accutools.com.

Maintenance and Care

Acid from the condensate

Chemical burns may result due to contact with slightly acidic

liquids from the condensate.

• If you come into contact with acid, immediately rinse the area thoroughly

with water for an extended period of time.

10.1 CLEANING AND CARE

The BluFlame requires very little maintenance in order to remain in good

condition in the long term:

• After every measurement, disconnect the gas sampling line from the

BluFlame so that it can dry off.

• If soiled, clean the probe and the probe tube.

• In the event of extended periods of non-use, first charge the battery fully.

Then charge the battery every 8 weeks.

• Replace the pocket star filter on a regular basis.

• Replace the pocket star filter after cleaning it 4 – 5 times.

Frequent measurements will result in a high degree of soiling;

accordingly, replace the pocket star filter on a regular basis.

10.2 MAINTENANCE

In order to ensure that the device is kept in good condition, we recommend

arranging for an AccuTools service location to perform an annual inspection

and a sensor calibration (www.accutools.com).
