IVx3 TEST PROCEDURES:
Main Air Inlet – Connect a clean and dry air supply to the 8mm/10mm Main Air Inlet.
This should be at 6 bar (90 psi) constant air supply. The Control box has an internal
regulator set to 6 bar to prevent damage to the PPVS or other valves.
Testing IVx3 for vacuum leak:
1. Connect air supply to Main Air Inlet
2. Connect the corresponding IVx3 valve port to the
proper port on the control box using 4 mm tube
(see figure).
3. With the IVx3 in the OFF mode adjust the
Vacuum level control to maximum level.
4. Close the Vacuum Isolation Valve.
5. Now wait several minutes to check that the
vacuum level on the vacuum gauge does not drop.
6. If the vacuum level drops then check the IVx3 Seal
and repair as needed.
