Checking for argon
flow
You can check for argon flow using a test plate, such as the OxoPlate
(Innovative Instruments, Inc., www.3i-usa.com/product_oxoplate.html)
or equivalent. Test plates can indicate the amount of oxygen displaced.
For instructions, see the manufacture’s user documentation.
Checking the
internal argon
pressure
You do not need to check the internal argon pressure. Make sure the
argon pressure from your lab is 0.28 MPa (40 psi).
Turning off the
argon
For safety reasons, the Gas-Purging PlateLoc automatically turns off the
argon inside the device immediately before the seal is applied.
Velocity11 recommends that you turn off the argon at the source (house
or cylinder) when the Gas-Purging PlateLoc is not in use.
