2.4.2 Bleeding the Regulator and Purging the Gas Line

When using bottled gas (gas cylinder) as a calibration gas for trace analysis applications, the regulator and sample lines must be bled to remove traces of trapped air. Otherwise air that is trapped in the lines especially between the regulator and cylinder will result in a lengthening of the calibration time.

To bleed the regulator and sample line:

1.Attach the regulator to the gas cylinder. Then attach a sample line with a flow control/shut off valve preferably at the far end of the sample line.

2.Open the shut off valve slightly, and then open the valve on the gas cylinder.

3.Adjust the regulator to the desired pressure (usually 5 psi) then close the cylinder valve.

4.Open the cylinder valve to pressurize the regulator fully then close the cylinder valve again.

5.Open the sample flow control valve and allow the gas to bleed down and vent to a safe area. Observe the secondary gauge (low pressure side) on the regulator. As the low pressure gauge starts to fall, close the sample flow control valve.

6.Repeat steps 4 and 5 seven (7) times.

The sample delivery system is now purged and ready for calibration or analysis. Keep the cylinder valve open to maintain system pressurization.

Note: Make sure there are no leaks in the sample line and regulator connections. Check also the cylinder connection for leaks.

2.5 Set the Sample Flow rate

Once the system has been calibrated, the instrument can be brought to the analysis site and the sample gas line can be connected to the unit. Using the quick disconnect fittings supplied; connect the vent line followed by the sample line to the rear panel. See Figure 2-1.

Once the sample gas is flowing, set the flow rate to 0.2-2.5 SCFH.
