Leak
A leak was detected in the sampler.
The signals from the two temperature sensors (leak sensor and
board-mounted temperature-compensation sensor) are used by the leak
algorithm to determine whether a leak is present. When a leak occurs, the leak
sensor is cooled by the solvent. This changes the resistance of the leak sensor
which is sensed by the leak-sensor circuit on the MTP board.
Probable Causes
•
Loose fittings.
•
Broken capillary.
•
Leaking rotor seal or needle seat.
•
Defective metering seal.
Suggested Actions
✔
Ensure all fittings are tight.
✔
Exchange defective capillaries.
✔
Exchange the rotor seal or seat capillary.
✔
Exchange the metering seal.
N O T E
Make sure the leak sensor is thoroughly dry before restarting the well-plate sampler.
N O T E
Crossflow caused by a leaky rotor seal may cause a spill over of seat in bypass position of
valve.
