FAIL FLOW 

・Water, oil are soaked. 

・Check whether any damage, suction marks of water, 

oil etc shall be found on sampling hose and filter 
with flow monitor. 

・Filling by filter dust. 

・Replace the filter with new.  

・Substance is clogged. 

・Remove substance. 

LOW BATTERY 
(REPLACE BATT.) 

・Low battery of dry battery. 

・Make power off and replace battery in non-hazardous 

area.(See “6-1.BATT. REPLACEMENT”.) 

ZERO CAL FAIL 
(FAIL ZERO) 

・Fresh air is not sucked normally.  ・Make zero adjustment again by having fresh air 

sucked into instrument.(See 3-5.ZERO ADJUSTMENT)

 

・Sensor trouble. 

・Make sensor replacement. 

SPAN CAL FAIL 
(FAIL SPAN) 

・Cal gas is not supplied correctly  ・ Make  gas  calibration  again  by  supplying  cal 

gas.(See “6-2. GAS CALIBRATION”.) 

・Sensor trouble. 

・Make sensor replacement. 

Power can not be ON 
 

・No power on. 

・Put battery correctly. 

・Battery is exhausted. 

・Replace batteries. 

・Polarity is wrong. 

・Correct battery polarity. 

・Pressing POWER SW is too short.  ・Hold and press POWER SW for 3 sec. 

Pump is working 
Power can not be ON 

・ All  the  batteries  are  put  in 

reversely. 

・ Put  batteries  correctly  according  to  battery 

replacement (See “6-1. BATTERY REPLACEMENT”.) 

Pump does not work 

・Pump life ends or troubled. 

・Request manufacture to repair. 

・ Not  measured  and  pump  stop 

working. 

・Re-start pump operation.  Press PUMP SW until LCD 

will display “PUMP ON”. 

・Pump connection fails. 

・Check connection condition and contact RIKEN KEIKI 

for repair. 

Gas is not sucked 

・Filter or hose etc are removed 

or clogged. 

・Check connection status of filter, hose and filth 

or twist and use in correct condition. 

Zero blinks 

・Zero is below minus. 

・ Check  that  gas  is  free  around  and  make  zero 

adjustment. 

・For CO2, make it after mounting CO2 scrubber. 

“100.0 vol%” blinks 
(CH4 only) 

・Zero and span are deviated and 

it shall be the output of 100 
vol% 

・Repeat again the procedure of zero adjustment and 

gas calibration.
