The following section identifies potential system issues and provides possible resolutions. The waveforms
on the graph of each moisture measurement can indicate whether an issue needs to be addressed. If
you are unable to resolve an issue after following the suggestion shown in this section, contact AMI for
further support.
Graph with No Discernable Peaks or Waveforms
Potential Issue
:
A graph with no visible waveforms and having no signature H
2
O and CH
4
peaks is indicative of either
Laser Failure
,
Detector Failure
or
Detector Misalignment
.
Resolution
:
Stop using
THE BARRACUDA MODEL 4010LX
for trace moisture measurements and contact AMI for
support.
Waveform with Signature Moisture Peak but No Signature CH
4
(Methane) Peak
Moisture
Peak
is present
Absorption
Waveform
is normal
Potential Issue
:
Whenever a waveform appears with the signature moisture peak but is missing the signature CH
4
peak, it
may indicate an issue with the
Laser Power
or the
Gas Sample
entering the Analyzer.
