Shorting Cell Plates
There are three primary causes of an ESP Cell shorting. They are:
1.
Foreign material lodged between Cell plates. If found remove.
2.
Grease build up between Cell plates. If found clean thoroughly.
3.
Cell plates warped or damaged reducing the distance between. Warped or damaged plates cannot
be repaired. The Cell must be replaced.
4.
Broken ionizing wire. Refer to “Replacing Ionizing Wires” on page 4-30.
