Note: the selected value must be within ±10% of the current measured ambient
pressure, otherwise an error message will occur at restarting the Monitor.
6WHS Confirm the barometric pressure setting.
6WHS Check that the ambient pressure displayed in the status line at the bottom of the
screen is the same as the value which you selected from the list in step 5.

The leakage check consists of two parts:
• Check of tubing between the pump outlet and the M3015A outlet.
• Check of tubing between the pump inlet and FilterLine inlet.

6WHS Go into Service Mode and highlight CO

.
6WHS Connect a FilterLine to the sidestream CO
input to start the pump running.
6WHS Check the ambient and cell pressure shown in the status line on the screen. The cell
pressure should be approximately 20 mmHg lower than ambient pressure.
6WHS Connect the flowmeter outlet to the FilterLine inlet using a flexible connecting
tube.
6WHS Block the M3015A outlet using your fingertip and observe the flowmeter display.
The value on the flowmeter (x2) should decrease to between 0 and 4 ml/min,
accompanied by an audible increase in pump noise. If the value is within the toler-
ance limits, continue with Part 2 of the leakage check.
6WHS If the value is outside the tolerance limits, there is a leakage between the pump out-
let and the M3015A gas outlet.
6WHS Open the M3015A and check the tubing connections at the pump outlet and the
M3015A gas outlet. If the connections are good, then there is a leakage in the tub-
ing and the M3015A must be exchanged.

6WHS Disconnect the flowmeter from the Part 1 setup and connect the flowmeter inlet to
the M3015A gas outlet.
6WHS Leave the Filterline connected to the M3015A inlet.
6WHS Block the inlet of the FilterLine using your fingertip and observe the flowmeter dis-
play. The value on the flowmeter (x3) should decrease to between 0 and 4 ml/min,
