9. Troubleshooting

The 

Flowtron

 Excel system features an audible and visual alarm. If a problem 

occurs, the system will sense the fault and briefly flash a message on the front panel 
pressure display.

If the same fault continues for 10 successive inflations, the audible alarm will sound 
and a flashing message will remain on the pressure display until corrective action is 
completed.

The exception to this is an   fault which will alarm immediately.

Alarm Cancel

After a fault has been corrected, the alarm can be 

cancelled by two methods: 

1. Switch the pump off, then on again.
2.  Allow the pump to run until it senses a normal 

inflation; it will then reset itself.

Continue to watch the display for approximately one 

minute after reset. If no flashing messages reappear, the 

fault has been cleared.

If the troubleshooting procedures do not return 
the system to normal performance, stop using the 
system immediately and call the service engineer.
