CALIBRATION & MAINTENANCE

GasLink LT

14

Routine Maintenance

The GasLink does require routine maintenance to maintain accuracy and enhance
the life of the tool. Routine maintenance includes checking and replacing filters,
performing gas calibrations, and replacing the NOx and O2 Sensors. The following
is a list of recommended practices.

Every time you use the Unit

Check the filters, and replace if necessary
Empty any water found in the Sample Bowl
Purge the unit at the conclusion of a test

Monthly, no less than every 60 days

Perform a Gas Calibration

Following this recommended service will maintain the accuracy of the unit and ex-
tend the life of the NOx and O2 sensors.

Filter Replacement

The in-line filter can be replaced by simply disconnecting it from the analyzer and
fitting the replacement. The upper and lower filter in the water separator bowl need
to be replaced as a unit. Do not lose the rubber separator that goes between the
filter elements, without it, no filtering will occur. The filter with the Red Dot goes on
the bottom.

The filters are sold in a set (P/N H020-57) that includes the upper and lower filter.
They are available from your local distributor, or direct from Ferret Instruments (800-
627-5655), or check www.ferretinstruments.com for an internet distributor.

Low Flow

A “Low Flow message will appear if the analyzer senses a restriction in the sample
hose assembly. A gradual increase in resistance, like a clogged filter will trigger the
message. It is also possible that the message will appear when the unit is very
cold. If the unit has been stored in a cold environment (close to or less than freezing)
use the unit on a vehicle for about 20 minutes. The heat of the exhaust gas and the
fact the unit is powered up should clear a temperature related Low Flow message.
