5 DIP Test Procedures
DIP Temperature Accuracy Test
Evaluates the DIP tip temperature using a probe
with a calibrated thermometer.
Air/Water Check during DIP operation Evaluates the DIP for leaks.
Coupling Test: CombiPal with MSD-DIP
Evaluates the function of the DIP (45°version) and
the GC together with the CombiPal
DIP EI Performance Test
Evaluates the performance of the MSD (EI) DIP
using a traceable standard.
PCICH4.U Test (if applicable)
Evaluates the performance of the MSD (PCI) using
a traceable calibration standard.
DIP PCI Performance Test
(if applicable)
Evaluates the performance of the MSD (PCI) DIP
using a traceable standard.
5.1 DIP Temperature accuracy test
This procedure uses a traceable digital thermometer to determine the temperature accuracy
of the push rod tip at the DIP system.
CONDITIONS
- MS – “Ready”
- DIP – “Ready/Bereit”
PROCEDURE
1. With the push rod outside, select the “Validation Mode” of the DIP controller:
Go to the menu “General Configuration” (see DIP manual, 5.6 Menu General
Configuration) and change the operate modus to the validation modus “ValMode” with
the arrow keys “up” or “down”.
2. Put the temperature sensor of the calibrated digital thermometer into the tip of the
push rod.
3. Isolate the tip of the push rod together with the thermometer and shut the cap of the
DIP.
4. In the DIP software, select the method “check_temp.dip” and start the temperature
program.
5. When the first setpoint is reached, observe the calibrated thermometer’s display until
the reading stabilizes.
6. Record the thermometer’s reading at the end of the 5 minute’s dwell time in the table
of the Results section.
7. Repeat no. 5 and 6 for the second and third setpoint.
8. In the DIP controller’s “General Configuration” menu change the mode from
“ValMode” to “Operate”.
