11.2. PREDICTIVE DIAGNOSTICS
Predictive diagnostic functions, including failure warnings and alarms built into the
analyzer‟s firmware, aid in determining whether and when repairs are necessary.
The Test Functions can also be used to predict failures by looking at how their values
change over time, compared to the values recorded on the printed record of the
Final
Test and Validation Data Sheet , P/N 04490. The internal data acquisition system (DAS)
is a convenient way to record and track these changes. Use APICOM (Section 8.1.1) to
download and review this data from a remote location.
The following table, checked weekly, can be used as a basis for taking action as these
values change with time.

RCEL
(pressure)
Constant to within
± 0.5 in-Hg-A
Fluctuating Developing leak in pneumatic system. Check for leaks.
Slowly increasing
Pump performance is degrading. Rebuild pump when pressure
is above 10 in-Hg-A.
SAMP
(pressure)
Constant within

changes
Fluctuating Developing leak in pneumatic system. Check for leaks.
Slowly increasing Flow path is clogging up. Replace orifice filters.
Slowly decreasing
Developing leak in pneumatic system to vacuum (developing
valve failure). Check for leaks.
OZONE FL
Constant to within
± 15
Slowly decreasing Flow path is clogging up. Replace orifice filters.
AZERO
Constant within
±20 of check-out
value
Significantly increasing
Developing AZERO valve failure. Replace valve.
PMT cooler failure. Check cooler, circuit, and power supplies.
Developing light leak.

Decreasing over time
Change in instrument response. Low level (hardware) calibrate

Ambient changes in moisture are affecting the performance.
Add a dryer to the zero air inlet.

Decreasing over time
Drift of instrument response; clean RCEL window. Check for
flow leaks or irregularities.
