Fault | Possible causes | Solutions |
---|---|---|
No power | Power supply failure Sensor damaged | Replace 12 VDC plug pack Replace sensor board |
Sensor failure (status LED flashes quickly) | Sensor needs warming up Air contaminated Sensor damaged | Run sensor for 24 hours in clean air Move sensor to a clean environment Replace sensor board |
Reading high in clean air | Insufficient warm up Air contaminated Sensor damaged | Run sensor for 24 hours in clean air Move the sensor to clean air environment Replace sensor board |
Reading lower than expected | Gas concentration is lower than expected Interfering gas present Sensor calibration incorrect | Sensor is working properly Interfering gas needs to be compensated/removed Replace sensor board |
Reading higher than expected | Gas concentration is higher than expected Interfering gas present Sensor calibration incorrect | Sensor is working properly Interfering gas needs to be compensated/removed Replace sensor board |
Reading unstable | Power supply unstable Local airflow is unstable EMF interference is high | Replace power supply Shield unit from airflow Shield unit from interference |
