Next, determine the test time seconds using the formula in "Figure 4 – 3 Test Time Calculation". Round up this value to the next
higher second and enter it into the appropriate parameter – "P1.3.10 Fuel1 Leak Test Sec" or "P1.3.12 Fuel2 Leak Test Sec". The
minimum test time is 10 seconds.

Gas Leak Test Timing Calculation Example
P1.3.9 Fuel1 leak teSt oPtIon
Menu > Advanced Settings > Flex Sequences > Flex Gas Leak Test Password Level: Engineer Restricted? Yes
This is enabled when fuel 1 valve leak testing is required.
Options: Disabled: Leak testing is not used or required
Post Purge: Leak testing is performed after post purge. If a limit opens during the post purge leak test or it can't be
completed for some other reason, the FlexFit will instead perform a leak test pre-purge.
Post & Pre Purge: Leak testing is both performed after post purge and pre-purge.
P1.3.10 Fuel1 leak teSt Sec
Menu > Advanced Settings > Flex Sequences > Flex Gas Leak Test Password Level: Engineer Restricted? Yes
This determines the leak test duration (seconds). After venting/pressurizing the test section, this is the time delay to detect a pressure
rise/fall due to a Safety Shutoff Valve (SSOV) leak.
Options: 10 to 90 [Default 60]
