Why is my Agilent Technologies Laboratory Equipment PlateLoc displaying 'Actuator Time Out'?
- J
  jasmine60Aug 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.

What to do if Agilent Technologies Laboratory Equipment shows 'Insufficient Air Pressure'?
- M
  marypayneAug 21, 2025
  If your Agilent Technologies Laboratory Equipment displays an 'Insufficient Air Pressure' error, it means the air pressure inside the PlateLoc is below 80 psi. Ensure the air pressure at the source (house, cylinder, or pump) is 0.62–0.69 MPa (90– 100 psi). If the source pressure is adequate, inspect the air connections for leaks. For Gas-Purging PlateLocs, confirm that argon is not connected to the AIR IN fitting.

What to do if the Agilent Technologies Laboratory Equipment seal cannot be pulled out?
- V
  vvaldezAug 23, 2025
  If the seal is stuck inside your Agilent Technologies Laboratory Equipment PlateLoc, turn off the air and power to the PlateLoc. Push down the red button on the back to open the seal gripper. Then, pull the seal out of the seal-entry slot. Cut off any tattered or folded edges before re-inserting the seal.

What to do if the Agilent Technologies PlateLoc touch screen does not display text?
- C
  Caroline DixonAug 26, 2025
  If the touch screen on your Agilent Technologies Laboratory Equipment PlateLoc isn't displaying text, first ensure the PlateLoc is connected to the power source and turned on. If it is on, the touch screen contrast might be set too low. To adjust it, turn the device off and on to reset the screen to the Main Menu. Press once in the lower left corner of the touch screen (where the Setup button is located) until you hear a beep to display the Set Parameters Menu. Then, press slightly to the right from the center at the bottom of the touch screen to increase the contrast.

How to fix PlateLoc Agilent Technologies Laboratory Equipment if the door doesn't close?
- J
  james47Aug 28, 2025
  If the door of your Agilent Technologies Laboratory Equipment PlateLoc is unable to close, check for any obstructions that may be preventing it, such as items under the door hinge. If the door was opened during the seal cycle, remove the plate and restart the cycle.

What to do if Agilent Technologies PlateLoc Laboratory Equipment plate is stuck?
- K
  Kevin BakerAug 30, 2025
  If the plate is stuck to the heated metal plate inside the sealing chamber of your Agilent Technologies Laboratory Equipment, it may be due to excess seal material stuck to the hot plate. Clean the hot plate.

Why is there oil in the sealing chamber of my Agilent Technologies PlateLoc?
- D
  dwarrenSep 1, 2025
  The presence of oil in the sealing chamber of your Agilent Technologies Laboratory Equipment indicates that the compressed air is not from an oil-free compressor and oil has leaked into the PlateLoc.

Why won't my Agilent Technologies Laboratory Equipment PlateLoc turn on?
- E
  Emily ReevesSep 4, 2025
  If your Agilent Technologies Laboratory Equipment PlateLoc does not turn on, first ensure that your lab meets the necessary electrical requirements and that the PlateLoc is properly connected to the power source.

Why is my Agilent Technologies PlateLoc making a hissing sound?
- B
  brobinsonSep 6, 2025
  A hissing sound from your Agilent Technologies Laboratory Equipment indicates a leak in the air or argon connections. Check the air connections at both the PlateLoc and the source (house, cylinder, or pump). Also, check the argon connections at the PlateLoc and the source (house or cylinder).

What causes 'Gripper Plate Vacuum' error on Agilent Technologies PlateLoc Laboratory Equipment?
- B
  bakerbrandonSep 9, 2025
  The 'Gripper Plate Vacuum' error on your Agilent Technologies Laboratory Equipment PlateLoc means the gripper inside the PlateLoc couldn't hold the seal material, possibly due to a jam. Turn off the air and power to the PlateLoc. Push down the red button on the back to open the seal gripper inside the device. Pull the seal out of the seal-entry slot, cut off any tattered or folded edges, and re-insert the seal.
