NONEProcedure
Set the Ohmmeter to zero.
SUBTASK 73-22-15-750-051 Do a Loop Resistance Test on the P3/T3 Sensor
Refer to Figure.
Set the Megohmmeter to zero. Set the scale to get values of 20 megohms at 600 VDC.
Do a test for the insulation resistance between Circuit No. 1 and the diffuser case.
Do a test for the insulation resistance between Circuit No. 2 and the diffuser case.
Do a test for the insulation resistance between Circuit No. 1 and Circuit No. 2.
Do a test of all circuits against each other and against non-circuit components.
The minimum insulation resistance permitted is 20 megohms at 600 VDC. If you do not get this value, clean the sensor and/or bake the sensor at 225 deg F (107.2 deg C) until the insulation is dry. Refer to Cleaning-001 TASK 73-22-15-100-401. Do the test again.
SUBTASK 73-22-15-750-052 Do an Insulation Resistance Test on the P3/T3 Sensor
Refer to Figure.
Connect the negative lead of the Microammeter to the alumel stud (larger diameter).
Connect the positive lead to the chromel stud.
Connect the Microammeter to the terminal studs of Circuit No. 1 with test leads.

CAUTION
DO NOT APPLY HEAT TO THE TERMINAL STUDS. THIS CAN CAUSE INCORRECT VALUES TO SHOW ON THE MICROAMMETER.Apply heat to the thermocouple junction with the heat gun. Point the hot air through the slots in the lower part of the protective housing.
A positive deflection of the Microammeter indicates correct polarity and correct operation of the part.
Do the test for Circuit No. 2.
If you get a negative deflection on the Microammeter, reject the sensor.
SUBTASK 73-22-15-750-053 Do a Response Test on the P3/T3 Sensor
Close the sensor pressure outlet with a cap.
Install the sensor in the Pressure jig.
Apply air at 20 to 30 psig (137.895 to 206.843 kPa) pressure to the fixture for one minute. The pressure must not decrease. If the pressure decreases, reject the sensor.
Bleed the pressure from the jig and remove the sensor.
