Troubleshooting - General Guide

Malfunction

Possible Cause

Action

Does not start

(The light on display does
not come on and the pump
motor is not running.

No power or wrong power
configuration

Check the line to confirm
that power is available and
that it matches the voltage
and frequency configuration
of the instrument.

Main fuse is blown or
missing

Unplug the power cord, open
the fuse drawer on the back
panel, and check the fuses
visually or with a multimeter.

Bad switch or wiring
connection

Unplug the power cord,
disconnect the switch and
check operation with a
multimeter.

Pressure transducer does not
hold calibration or is noisy

Pressure transducer
defective

Replace pressure transducer.

Run output noisy

Recorder noise

Replace or repair recorder.

Sample HCl concentration
varying

Run instrument on a span
HCl source - if quiet, there is
no malfunction.

Foreign material in optical
bench

Clean optical bench.

Analyzer does not calibrate
properly

System leak

Find and repair leak.

Pressure or temperature
transducer out of calibration

Recalibrate pressure and
temperature transducer.

Dirty system

Clean cells and flow
components.

Leaky correlation wheel

Replace with a known good
wheel.
