Troubleshooting 

Tables 19 and 20 show you Bubble and Air Lock errors and their solutions. 

Table 19. Bubble Errors 

 

Possible Cause 

Solution 

Air caught in the delivery tube 

Make sure to remove all air when you connect the 
infusion device to the analyzer. Use care with the 
connections. 

Incorrect priming 

Use the method given in this manual to prime the 
product. 

Degassing of the test fluid 

For longer flow tests, let the test fluid become stable 
to room temperature before use. 

 

Table 20. Air Lock Errors 

 

Possible Cause 

Solution 

Incorrect arrangement of drain tubes 

Use the method given in this manual. Use a syringe 
of air to gently push all excess water out of the 
measuring channel. 

Blockage of the drains (such as trapped or 
kinked tubes) 

Examine and unblock as necessary. 

Contamination of the fluid measure circuit 

Use the cleaning instructions found in the “Product 
Maintenance” section of this manual.
