Is my meter letting by?

[Mike2007]

I did a tightness test with my digital manometer and my pressure off the U6 meter after stabilization was 26.70mb and had risen to 27.40mb after 2min test.
What pressure does the regulator lock-up on NG?
Is my meter regulator letting by, or have overlooked something?
Everything was turned off during tests.
Kane 425 tester, certificate 2 weeks old.

test should be made at 20mb. Let by test at 10mb...

Are you an RGI a CC or DIYer

or have overlooked something?

A let-by test perhaps?

The questions you ask are V basic to be working on gas.

 

[kevplumb]

methinks somebody is having a

If you haven't grasped let-by then you sure won't understand FGA so you may as well stick the Kane on fleabay. Gawd 'elp us (and the industry) if you're actually registered.

No No surely this should be taken seriously.
surely the poster should be told to phone transco/networks, tell them the results of his test and Im sure they will be only too pleased to pop round and confirm his suspicions

 

[gas4you]

There is only one definite way to confirm let by.

Who's going to be the one to tell him

I could, but I'll leave it to the Lords in the Gas Chamber

Chances are we wont be seeing the OP in the chamber

Well done for assisting the unregistered...but it still doesn't give the let-by pressure

 

[namsag]

Not just the unregistered who don`t know how to do letby .Transco mates get one every few weeks . I have put gauge on and the pressure slowly rises till it gets to around low/mid 20`s mb so ECV must be passing.
Eh usually NO

Try answering the OP's question rather than turning this forum into some jolly old boys club ... It's for DIY'ers AFAIA.

sorry no
the piece of kit that the op has, he clearly doesnt know how to use.
leads one to think how did it fall into his hands?
coming on here and asking questions regarding how to use it makes us all feel uncomfortable.

The Op is a danger, if you had a clue you would know that.
