    The document provides instructions for checking and maintaining the flow rate of an instrument. It describes how to check the aspirator bulb by sealing the inlet fitting and squeezing the bulb, replacing the bulb if it does not fully inflate within six seconds. It also details how to check the flow rate is within the required range of 0.03 to 0.05 cubic feet per hour by squeezing the aspirator bulb and observing it fully inflates within two to four seconds, and if not to replace the cotton filter or clear the flow regulating orifice.

    Chapter 3, Maintenance

    5. If the bulb still inflates, check the gaskets; then, check the
    aspirator bulb by sealing the inlet fitting with a finger and
    squeezing the bulb.
    Replace the bulb if it inflates in less than six seconds.
    Flow Rate Checks
    A sample should flow through the instrument at 0.03 to 0.05
    cubic feet per hour (0.8 to 1.4 LPM). To check for proper flow
    rate after a leak check:
    1. Squeeze the aspirator bulb sealing the aspirator exhaust
    valve only).
    2. Observe that bulb inflates completely in two to four seconds.
    3. If it does not, replace the cotton filter:
    a. Remove the inlet fitting and gasket.
    b.

    Using tweezers, remove the filter (FIGURE 3-2).

    c.

    Replace filter and reassemble.

    4. Disconnect the aspirator bulb tubing from the outlet fitting.


    5. Remove the flow regulating orifice (FIGURE 2-1) from the
    fitting to verify that it is open. Replace if necessary.
    NOTE: If it is clogged, insert a #23 gauge (0.0225 in.
    diameter) wire through the opening. (DO NOT USE A
    DRILL BIT.)

    6. Reassemble completely and reconnect the aspirator bulb.
