General Machine Operation

The system is generally fully automatic in operation.

To switch on

Proceed as follows:

Check air applied (pressure gauge on air inlet above 4 bar)

Check power applied (Red light on control panel)

Ensure all emergency stops are off (pulled out).

Press the green start button on the control cabinet. Green lamp should come on.

Allow bottles into the leak tester.

To Switch off

To Verify Operation

If required, correct leak tester operation can be verified by passing a sample bottle with a test hole repeatedly through the leak tester, once for each channel. Alternatively use the optional self test system.

Press the Stop button. Clear the leak tester area of bottles. Make sure the stop button is pulled back out, then press the green start button. Allow bottles into the leak tester again.
