Pneumatic Test Program - Test (MVA)

Preliminary work:
PSE control module voltage supply 23 PSE 1.0, 2.0

Data (mbar)

Test procedure Permissible deviation
Allowable leakage of pneumatic multiple connector, pneumatic lines and vacuum distribution block at 300 mbar vacuum in 1 minute. 30 mbar
Allowable leakage of vacuum distribution block with line at 300 mbar vacuum
in 1 minute.
25 mbar

Preparation for Test:
Vehicles up to approx. 12/93:
1. Disconnect pneumatic multiple connector from PSE control module.
2. Connect tester to bottom side of pneumatic multiple connector at
SRU (MVA) using connector 129 805 04 44.
Vehicles as of approx. 01/94:
1. Disconnect transparent MVA pneumatic line with socket from PSE control module.
2. Connect tester to disconnected pneumatic line using connector
129 805 04 44.
All vehicles:
1. Provide access to vacuum distribution block in right component compartment and pry off all pneumatic lines except transparent
MVA line at connection 1.

Parts Required for Test:
1 Connector 129 805 04 44
1 Connector, 50 mm long 007 997 61 82


Note:
The connections on the PSE control module and pneumatic multiple connector are marked with their German acronyms. In other words:
ZV (German) = CL (English),
SRU (German) = MVA (English),
OSL (German) = OSB (English).
