GOOD PRACTICES AND SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Safety recommendations
If the device is supplied with 100 / 240 V AC, it is mandatory to connect it to the ground with
a good link to the ground, to protect against electric hazard or electrocution.
It is dangerous to change the status of the outputs.
They can control power actuators or other equipment (mechanical, pneumatic, hydraulic,
electrical or other) which can cause serious personal injury and damage to surrounding
material.
For safety and quality measurement reasons, it is important, before powering on the device,
to ensure that it is air supplied with a minimum operating pressure (0.6 MPa ± 15%).
Recommendations for the test environment
Keep the test area as clean as possible.
Recommendations for operators
ATEQ recommends that the operators who use the devices have training and a level of
qualification that correspond to the job to perform.
General recommendations
—Read the user manual before using the device.
—All electrical connections to the device must be equipped with safety systems (fuses,
circuit breakers, etc.) adapted to the needs and in accordance with the applicable
standards and rules.
—To avoid electromagnetic interference, electrical connections to the device must be
shorter than 2 meters.
—Power supply plug must be grounded.
—Disconnect the device from the mains before performing any maintenance work.
—Shut off the compressed air supply when working on the pneumatic assembly.
—Do not open a connected device.
—Avoid splashing water on the device.
ATEQ is at your disposal for any information concerning the use of the device under
maximum safety conditions.
We draw your attention to the fact that ATEQ cannot be held responsible for any accident
related to a misuse of the measuring instrument, the workstation or non-compliance of the
installation with safety rules.
In addition, ATEQ declines any responsibility for the calibration or the fitting of their
instruments that is not done by ATEQ.
ATEQ also declines any responsibility for any modification (program, mechanical or
electrical) of the device done without their written consent.

AIR QUALITY REQUIREMENTS
The air supplied into the device must be clean and dry. Even though the device is provided
with a filter, the presence of dust, oil or impurities may cause malfunction.
Air quality requirements according to ISO standard 8573
The air must be clean and dry.
The presence of impurities, oil or humidity in the air may cause deterioration which will not
be covered by the warranty.
When the instrument is working in vacuum conditions, impurities must be prevented from
being drawn into its internal components.
For this purpose, we strongly recommend that a suitable airtight filter is installed between
the part under test and the instrument.
ATEQ recommends the following characteristics for the air supplied into the device.
Recommended additional equipment
ATEQ recommends the installation of this additional equipment:
—Air dryer to provide dry air at less than - 40°C dew point
—25 microns and 1/100 microns double filter

LEAK TEST
Direct measurement principle
The part under test 3 and the reference part 5 are filled to an identical pressure. A
differential sensor 4 measures the pressure variation between the part under test 3
and the reference part 5 . In some applications, the reference part can be replaced by
a cap.

2 Pressure sensor
3 Part under test
4 Differential pressure sensor
5 Reference part
Desensitized test
This mode is used for the measurement of large leaks, when the reject level required is
above the full scale of the differential sensor.
The test pressure is applied to the input of the part under test 3. The measurement is
performed by the pressure sensor 2.

PRINCIPLE OF A CYCLE
The measurement cycle is made of 4 main phases: fill, stabilization, test, dumping.
A Pressure auto zero additional phase 0can be placed at the start or at the end of a cycle,
depending on the requirement of the operator.
