Setting Test Pressure
Test pressure is the only parameter requiring connection to supply air
before the value can be set. Test pressure must be set for every test type.
Regardless of the test type, test pressure is set in the same way so the setup
explained here covers all situations.
To Set Test Pressure—
1. Connect supply air to the input port on the back of the tester.
2. Go to the parameters menu of the test being setup. Press NEXT to
highlight Test Press.
3. Block the test port with a leak-tight cap. (See the note on setting test
pressure in a flow test on the previous page.)
4. Press the INCREMENT keypad once. This opens the valve that provides
air to the test port and allows showing the current pressure setting of
the pressure regulator in the setup menu. Figure 16.
5. Adjust the pressure regulator knob on the back of the tester until the
desired test pressure is shown in the parameters menu. Figures 4 and
16.
6. When the pressure reads correctly, press ENTER/BACK.
7. If linking tests, repeat the procedure for each test to be run. For
example, if running a pressure and an occlusion test, set the identical
test pressure for both.
8. After all test pressures are set, do not allow the regulator to bumped or
inadvertently moved. P ERR messages displays in the status box if test
pressure is changed after initial setup.
Lock Down the Regulator
After you’ve set test pressure, use the “jam nut”
on the regulator shaft to lock the pressure
regulator into position.
