Appendix L: Using the EAGLE 2 in Leak Check Mode
Overview
This chapter explains how to operate the EAGLE 2 in Leak Check Mode.
Leak Check Mode is used to pinpoint small leaks of combustible gas from
valves, flanges, connections, and other potential leak points. When the
EAGLE 2 is in Leak Check Mode, only the
catalytic combustible sensor is active.
If an EAGLE 2 is intended for tracking down leaks, it is shipped with Leak
Check Mode or both Leak Check Mode and Bar Hole Mode enabled so that
the operator must choose which operational mode to use when the unit is
turned on (see “Updating LC/BH Mode Setting” on page 124).
Start Up, Leak Check Mode
This section explains how to start up the EAGLE 2 in Leak Check Mode and
get it ready for operation.
Turning On the EAGLE 2, Leak Check Mode
CAUTION: If one or more sensors other than a catalytic combustible sensor
is installed, these sensors will not be active while the EAGLE 2
is in Leak Check Mode.
The following description of the EAGLE 2 start up sequence assumes that the
following menu items in Setup Mode are turned on: CAL REMINDER and
USER/STATION ID. If either of these items is turned off, then the
corresponding screen will not appear.
1. Connect the standard probe to the EAGLE 2’s quick connect inlet
fitting.
NOTE: Use the standard probe, not the bar hole probe, when using
the EAGLE 2 in Leak Check Mode.
2. If a sample hose is used, connect the sample hose to the EAGLE 2’s
quick connect inlet fitting and connect the probe to the sample
hose’s quick connect fitting.
3. Press and briefly hold down the POWER ENTER RESET button.
Release the button when you hear a beep.
