(b)(4).This report is being submitted due to a retrospective review conducted under capa (b)(4).On (b)(6) 2016, a field service engineer (fse) was dispatched to the customer's facility to address the reported event.The fse found the sample loop leaking and the high pressure alarm when tightened.The fse replaced the sample loop, rotor seal and stator face, 6 way valve seal, and i-6 tubing.All errors cleared and the g8 operated as intended.No further actions were required by field service.The most probable cause for low pressure and emergency stop was the i-6 tubing was clogged.
