Malfunction  Possible Cause 

Remedy 

Over-Range 

Readings

Electrode connections 

loose or bad

Verify the electrode connections to the 

electrode cables. 

Electrode wiring

Electrodes not properly wired to terminal 

strip. Refer to

 Chapter II.

Blocked junction on 

reference electrode

Make sure electrolyte is flowing properly.

Calcium or reference  

electrode failure 

Electrode is shorted, cracked or damaged. 

Install a new electrode. Refer to

 Chapter II.

Electronics failure or  

bad setup

Reset the analyzer. Refer to

 Chapter VI.

Analyzer out of calibration  Recalibrate the analyzer. Refer to

 Chapter IV.

Low Readings 

Analyzer out of calibration Recalibrate the analyzer. Refer to

 Chapter IV.

Sample is very pure

Check sample status. Perform a span check 

and if span check passes, the analyzer is okay.

Electronics failure 

Try resetting the analyzer. Refer to

  

Chapter VI

 or consult Technical Support.
