You should increase the flowmeter setting until the Dual Purge System maintains a humidity level a few percent below the
set point without switching to the high-level purge.

PROBLEM:

The glove box is leaking.

POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS:

1.

Check the condition of the gaskets. If any is cracked or peeling, call Terra for a replacement.

PROBLEM:

Line pressure gauge does not display any pressure.

POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS:

1.

Supply gas is down, or for some reason is not reading the Dual Purge System. Check your supply line for kinks or
blockage.

2.

If your gas system utilizes a filter, it may be clogged and need to be replaced.

3.

Check the line pressure regulator to make sure it is not closed.

PROBLEM:

The internal positive pressure gauge does not indicate a positive pressure.

POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS:

1.

System may not be properly set up. Follow the operating procedures outlined in “Installation.”

2.

Check the doors for a possible leak.

PROBLEM:

The NitroWatch delivers an obviously incorrect humidity reading.

POSSIBLE SOLUTION:

Check the NitroWatch sensor connection on the rear panel of the control module. If the connection to the sensor is good, and the
unit still fails to deliver an accurate reading, contact Terra Universal.
