Additional Manufacturer Narrative
|
|
The customer¿s report of damage to the filter was not confirmed however a leak at the filter vent was confirmed.The set was visually inspected and clear liquid was observed in the tubing and 0.2 micron filter.There was no damage observed.During functional testing and pressure testing drops of fluid were observed to be leaking out of the filter vent.The root cause of the leak was identified as the fluid resistance of the filter becoming roughly equivalent to the fluid resistance of the air vent, increasing backpressure at which time the fluid seeks the path of least resistance through the filter vent.
