Cycle Fault
Number
Description of Fault
Probable Cause of Fault
Cycle Fault #1
The cassette temperature failed to reach 95ºC within
a time-out period.
This fault may be caused by a large cassette
leak in conjunction with an extremely large load
or a blown thermal fuse caused by weak pump
delivery and/or contaminated steam generator
or a faulty steam generator triac. If the triac has
failed, the thermal fuse may have also failed. A
faulty steam generator (steam generator
resistance failed open) could also cause this
fault.
Cycle Fault #2
Software Revisions
R1xx or R2xx only
The cassette temperature failed to increase from
95°C to 100°C within a time-out period.
This may be cause by a major steam leak from
the cassette, incorrect chamber temperature
calibration or an extremely large load.
Cycle Fault #3
The cassette has failed to pressurize and achieve a
temperature of 110ºC within a time-out period.
This may be caused by a faulty cassette seal, a
damaged cassette or a faulty solenoid valve
(failed to close). Verify check valve and
pressure relief valves for leaks.
For PCB rev other than rev. 7.xx verify Vref to
be 2.520V± 0.001V.
Cycle Fault #4
The cassette has failed to achieve sterilization
conditions within a timeout period.
This may be caused by a faulty cassette seal, a
damaged cassette, improperly installed copper
tubing, a failed or faulty solenoid valve (failed to
close) , or improper alignment of the probe
bracket. Verify check valve and pressure relief
valves for leaks. For PCB rev other than rev.
7.xx verify Vref to be 2.520V± 0.001V
Cycle Fault #5
Software Revision
R1xx only
The software causes the pump to activate at
predetermined times. If a request to pump water
occurs outside of the predetermined time Cycle Fault
#5 occurs.
This may be caused by a leaky cassette, a kink
in the steam generator inlet tube, a leaking
solenoid outlet valve, a weak pump and a very
large load in the cassette.
