Fault

Cause

Remedy

1. Maximum dosing flow is not 

reached.

a) Insufficient injector vacuum.

Check the injector. Repair it, if necessary. 
Observe the manual of the injector.
Check the motive water pump. Repair it, if 
necessary.
Check the dirt trap before the injector. Clean it, 
if necessary.

b) Leakage in the vacuum line between dosing 

regulator and injector.

Eliminate the leakage.

c) Vacuum line between dosing regulator and 

injector too long.

For details on vacuum lines, see section 

5.1.2 Vacuum lines between dosing regulator 
and injector

.

d) Soiled vacuum line.

Replace the vacuum line.

e) Servomotor does not reach maximum dosing 

capacity.

Readjust the servomotor and/or the external 
controller.

f)

Soiled filter at the pressure connection of the 
dosing regulator.

Call the service.

g) Closed chlorine container valve.

Open the chlorine container valve.

h) Empty chlorine container.

Replace empty chlorine container by a full one.

i)

Adjusting spindle of the dosing regulator not 
suitable (diameter too small).

Call the service.

2. Leaky pressure connection.

a) Gasket at the pressure connection damaged. Replace the gasket.
b) Sealing surfaces soiled with residues of old 

gaskets.

Clean the sealing surfaces.

c) Sealing surface at the chlorine container 

damaged.

Use another chlorine container.

d) Pressure connection loose.

Tighten the pressure connection.

e) Sealing surface at the pressure connection 

of the vacuum regulator damaged.

Call the service.

3. Gas escapes at the 

overpressure line.

a) Re-liquefied gas gets into the inlet valve.

Reduce the extraction amount, ensure a 
correct temperature sequence.

b) Inlet valve soiled or damaged.

Call the service.

4. Despite correctly displayed 

dosing capacity, the desired 
chlorine solution concentration 
is not reached.

a) Leakage in the vacuum line between vacuum 

regulator and dosing regulator.

Eliminate the leakage.

5. The ball in the measuring glass 

is caught.

a) Measuring glass or ball soiled.

Call the service.

6. Formation of ice on the chlorine 

container.

a) Extraction quantity is set too high. If more 

than 1 % of the content is extracted per hour, 
there is danger of formation of ice at the 
container.

Use a dosing system with several chlorine 
containers.
Call the service.

b) Chlorine gas dosing system too small.

Use a bigger chlorine gas dosing system.

7. Water in the measuring glass.

a) Diaphragm non-return valve is defective.

Call the service.

8. Servomotor does not run.

a) Servomotor is switched to manual operation. Switch servomotor to automatic operation.

9. Servomotor does not regulate 

within the entire capacity range.

a) Servomotor and/or controller adjusted 

incorrectly.

Call the service.

10. Servomotor rotates in the wrong 

direction.

11. Vacuum varies despite constant 

operating conditions.

a) Spring in the differential pressure regulator 

soiled or damaged.

12. The dosing capacity varies 

despite constant operating 
conditions.

a) Diaphragm in the differential pressure 

regulator soiled or damaged.
