Troubleshooting: The following reasons may be re-

•
The instrument is working but there may be solid
particles in the application medium clogging the
fork.
•
Heavy build-up of application medium can
dampen the fork oscillations. In this case, the
fork requires to be cleaned.
•
If material is very viscous, the fork vibrations will
resume when the fork is uncovered.
In this case,
the error indication should be ignored.

18 Maintenance
The electronics of elixir instrument needs no mainte-
nance. When cleaning and checking the vessel, free the
tuning fork from deposits. If the material has tendency to
form a hard sticky deposit, the instrument must be checked
more often. Make sure that the cable ducts and the lid are
tightly sealed so that no moisture seeps into the instrument.
