3-2 Operation of the Ecotec E3000
kina22e chapter 3.fm technical handbook(1206)
After switching on and completion of the run-up phase the Ecotec E3000 will be
ready to make measurements. There is no separate start function. The sniffer lines
are designed to maintain an inlet pressure low enough to make measurements.
Notice: The Ecotec E3000 will only operate after having connected the sniffer line.
Upon delivery, the data of the following gases are programmed in the factory for the
measurements, and these gases are indicated on the display:
R134a, R600a, R22, He
This selection of gases may be changed at any time.
A calibration in accordance with Section 3.5 is recommended 20 minutes after having
switched on the Ecotec E3000 on at the earliest (warm-up phase).
Notice: If you have not purchased the ECO-Check reference leak, warning 71 (“No
communication with test leak”) will be issued on first start-up. Please go to
Settings / Interfaces / ECO-Check and set the ECO-Check to “disabled” to
prevent future warnings (see section 4.6.7)
3.2 Controls on the main display unit
All set-up and control functions are integrated into the main display unit via the menu
structure. The functions of the 8 control keys are displayed on the LC display. During
measurements the main interface is the probe handle display giving all necessary
information for proper leak testing.
After start-up the Ecotec E3000 will automatically go into measurement mode.
