Why is my Agilent Technologies Laboratory Equipment PlateLoc displaying 'Actuator Time Out'?
- Jjasmine60Aug 19, 2025
The 'Actuator Time Out' error on your Agilent Technologies Laboratory Equipment PlateLoc may be due to a sensor or actuator failure, or because the air pressure inside the PlateLoc has dropped below 80 psi. First, ensure the seal material is properly loaded and try sealing a spare plate to check if the PlateLoc is working correctly. Also, check that the air pressure at the source (house, cylinder, or pump) is 0.62–0.69 MPa (90– 100 psi). For Gas-Purging PlateLoc, verify that the argon is not connected to the AIR IN fitting. Check the air connection for leaks.
