Other troubleshooting 

If one of the following problems occurs, it can normally be addressed by the user; if a fault 
occurs that is not listed, contact your local Genevac representative for advice or technical 
support. 
 
 

Symptom 

Cause  

Rectification 

Lid will not open 

Rotor spinning or chamber 
under vacuum 

Wait for system to stop 

Pressure sensor failure 

Switch evaporator off, wait five seconds 
and switch on again.  Try to open lid 
again.  If the problem persists, contact 
your Genevac representative.  

Condenser not ready 

Short delay following 
condenser power-up 

No fault, this is normal.  Wait a few 
minutes for the condenser to reach 
operating temperature 

Condenser not ready after 10 
minutes 

Contact Genevac service 

Pump warming 

Pump requires to be warmed 
(HCl systems only) 

No fault, this is normal.  Wait for pump 
warm-up time-out 

Out of balance error 

Rotor imbalance detected at 
start-up (before full rotor 
speed is reached) 

Check all sample holders and swing 
have been loaded correctly 
Check all opposing holders are 
balanced with 10 g 

IR lamp blown or cooling fan 
failed 

Contact Genevac Service  

No SampleGuard 
temperature display 

No SampleGuard signal, 

Wait until rotor reaches full speed.  

Note: 

 SampleGuard cannot be used if 

Very Low

 rotor speed is selected 

SampleGuard probe failure 

Replace defective SampleGuard probe 

SampleGuard stuffer plug not 
connected 

Replace missing / defective 
SampleGuard stuffer plug 

Samples not dry 

IR lamp fault 

See IR lamp / fan failure above 

SampleGuard fault 

See SampleGuard error above 

Poor vacuum 

Check vacuum connectors.  Contact 
Genevac service if leak cannot be 
found 

Aqueous samples freezing 
due to evaporative cooling 

Set controlled pressure to 8 mbar for 
aqueous runs 

Condenser over full 

Defrost / drain condenser 

Condensation inside 
chamber 

Chamber walls are too cold.  
Refer to: 

Condensation

 

Set chamber temperature control to 
pre-heat chamber (specify 
temperature) 

Cross contamination 

Samples bumping 

Go to 

Run Edit

 screen and select the 

Dri-Pure

 option from the 

Pressure 

Control Regime

 drop down menu 

Set chamber temperature control to 
wait to cool (specify temperature) 

Pump runs in standby  

Pump purge before power-
down 

– HCl systems only 

No fault, this is normal.  Wait 45 
minutes for pump to purge before
