needs.
Problem:
Air in fluid line or flow cell.
Solutions

Ensure timer settings on controller prevent bladder from being over pressurized.
Verify PTFE collar is in place at either end of the bladder. Inspect O-rings for
damage and replace if needed. Inspect bladder for cuts and holes and replace if
needed.

Occasionally, significant amounts of dissolved gasses can be encountered in
ground water, especially in deep well areas with significant hydraulic pressures.
When this fluid is exposed to atmosphere, out-gassing may occur. Refer to your
Standard Operating Procedure for specifics on dealing with this situation.
Problem:
Not pumping any fluid (or no air).
Solutions:

Verify the pump is below static water level. Inspect airline tubing for kinks, cracks
or breaks. Make sure you are not getting leaks at any fittings. Replace damaged
or worn tubing. Cut tubing back and re-terminate at leaking fitting joint.
Problem: Not pumping any fluid (air is coming out fluid discharge line).
