Agilent 1200 Series Autosampler Reference Manual 103
Troubleshooting and Test Functions 3
4 Check the tension of the belts.
For this use the Torque2.mac and measure the torque for each axis.
5 Exchange the gripper arm assembly (part number G1313-60010).
The gripper arm exchange procedure is explained in the reference manual
G1329-90010, section “Repairing the Autosampler”.
6 Adjust the belts tension.
• If the measured torque value is too low, the belt needs to be tightened.
• If the measured torque value is too high, the belt needs to be loosened.
For this, slide the motor on the holder bracket in the appropriate direction
and test the tension with the Tor que 2. mac macro. Repeat this steps until the
values are in the appropriate torque range.
7 Exchange the sample transport assembly (part number G1329-60009).
8 Exchange the main board (part number G1329-69520).
Table 15
Typical ranges Theta (both) 30-50
X-axis (both) 50-90
Z-axis (both) 90-130
Gripper open 30-65
Gripper closed maximum 30
NOTE
If the Gripper open/closed torque is not in the range, proceed with STEP 5. If the theta or X
torque is not in the range, proceed with STEP 6 (if you think you can adjust the torque),
otherwise proceed with STEP 7.
