Meaning/ Corrective Action

"Gas Tank Not Detected"

*

Either the gas tank communication cable is not
connected or the tank is empty.

"Gas Tank Pressure Low" 

*

There is less than 20 Bar remaining in the gas tank.

"Gas Tank Insufficient Pressure" 

*

There is not enough pressure in the gas tank to start.

"Error: Gas Tank at High Temperature" 

*

The Gas Tank internal temperature is above 60

.

Please check for abnormalities.

"Low H2 Supply"

Hydrogen supply pressure is low and the system will wait 
up to 1min for correction. Please check and correct the 
delivery pressure.

"Error: Low H2 Supply" 

Hydrogen is not correctly supplied within the stipulated 
time limit. Check and ensure sufficient Hydrogen supply 
and correct delivery pressure. Restart the system.

"Over Pressure"

Hydrogen supply pressure is too high and the system will 
wait for 1min. Reduce the delivery pressure.

"Error: Over Pressure" 

Hydrogen is not properly supplied within the stipulated 
time limit. Check and ensure sufficient Hydrogen supply 
and correct delivery pressure. Restart the system.

"High Temperature"

Stack temperature is too high and the system
will wait for 1min. 

"Error: High Temperature" 

Disconnect everything and wait for system to cool down 
and restart after 10min. If the problem persists, internal 
temperature sensor might have been compromised. 
Contact Spectronik.

"Error: FC Over Cooled" 

Stack temperature is too low. Wait for ambient 
temperature to increase and restart the system.

"FC Sealing Compromised" 

Possible stack leakage. Check and ensure all gas tubing 
and connectors are securely connected. 

"Error: Low Voltage" 

Stack open circuit voltage is too low. Check and ensure 
sufficient hydrogen supply and correct delivery pressure. 
Restart after 1 min.

Emergency Shutdown = "Abnormal Shutdown" would be activated

*

with purchase of optional Spectronik accessories (gas tank and pressure regulator)
