PROBLEM
SOLUTION
Poor sample draw or no sample.
Check the Spring inside Sample Piston and the O-ring on
the Bottom Stop. Replace if broken or worn.
Oil in air lines.
Usually, this means that the Seals inside the Seal
Bushings are worn out. Perform standard maintenance
(seal replacement). If problem persists, the Piston Tube
may be scratched and will need to be replaced.
Piston's not moving.
Check air supply and Solenoid Valve.
Oil leaking through Seal Housing.
Perform standard maintenance (seal replacement).
Sampler is actuating but there is no sample output.
Replace the Bottom Seal. This is especially necessary
if the sampler has more than 6 months of operation
(complete seal replacement is strongly recommended).
The sampler is overfilling the Sample Receivers or the
sampler doesn't stop outputting samples.
The line pressure is higher than the cracking pressure of
the PRV. Please follow instructions on page 11 of this
manual to adjust the PRV cracking pressure correctly.
