6. System Alarms when no
Leak is Found

e) If the monitor does not respond to refrigerant, contact
SenTech Corporation technical support.

a)  Verify  that  the  alarm  is  not  a  “Trouble  Alarm”  as
described in Appendix A.

b)  Verify  that  the  alarm  settings  are  not  set  too  low.
Refer  to  “Startup  and  Programming”  section  of  this
manual for instructions.

c)  Inspect  the  area  for  the  presence  of  halogenated
organic  chemicals.    Some  degreasers  and  cleaning
agents  are  made  of  organic  chemicals  containing
chlorine,  fluorine  or  bromine.    Such  chemicals  might
cause an alarm.

d)  Inspect  the  area  for  oil  leaks.    Oil  can  contain  trace
amounts  of  refrigerant,  and  will  likely  cause  a  transient
alarm.

e) Verify that there truly is no refrigerant leak in the area.
This includes all machines and stored refrigerants.

If none of the above resolves the problem, the unit has
likely failed. Contact SenTech Corporation technical
support for assistance.
