Leakage Test; Degas; Decomposition Vessel Identificaton; C 5010 Technical Data - IKA C 5010 Mode D'emploi

A leak test and pressure testing shall be performed after assembly has
been successfully completed (see the sections entitled „Leakage test").

Leakage test

Perform a leakage test before every combustion process.
Always check the lid is properly sealed with the decom-
position vessel after carrying out maintenance.
Follow the safety instructions.
• Fill the decomposition chamber in the calorimeter system or using the
C 248 oxygen filling station.
• Remove the decomposition vessel and immerse fully in a container
filled with water.
• Check the decomposition vessel for oxygen leaks by watching for bub-
bles.
• If bubbles are seen then the decomposition vessel is not sealed cor-
rectly.
• Vent the decomposition vessel and check the seals.
Never use a leaking decomposition vessel in the calorimeter!
Degase
For the C 5000, venting of the decomposition vessel takes place in the
device itself; for the C 2000 and C 200 the venting button supplied with
the device is required.
The vent knob is supplied for
manual release of tension in the
decomposition vessel. (Even in
case ot error function of the filling
unit in the calorimeter C 2000 / C
5000).
Escaping
decomposition gases
might be detrimental
to health.
Decomposition vessel identification
The individual parts of the decomposition vessel are clearly identified by
means of the engraved serial number and the technical data.
The individual parts of several decomposition vessels (cover, union nut
and bottom part) are not interchangeable.

for testing.
