    Why is there no power to the Apex Instruments XC-500 Laboratory Equipment Jenco temperature display screen?
    • J
      Joshua VillaAug 21, 2025
      If there is no power to the Jenco temperature display screen of your Apex Instruments Laboratory Equipment, check the connector and wires in the bottom-right corner of the rear of the temperature display unit to ensure they are secure. Also, make sure the console main power switch is turned on and that the console is plugged into a working power outlet with the correct voltage output. Finally, check if the main circuit breaker on the front of the console is extended; if so, push it in. If it repeatedly trips, turn off the console, disconnect power, and remove it from service for inspection and repair.

    What to do if Apex Instruments XC-500 Laboratory Equipment pump motor fails to start or hums?

      If the pump motor of your Apex Instruments Laboratory Equipment fails to start or hums, check for correct current (5 to 6 Amperes). Also, check to see if the fuse is blown. If the unit has frozen due to ambient temperature, move the pump to a warmer environment to heat it up and then return to the sampling location. Check if the unit has overheated or if the console is connected to an incorrect voltage power source (e.g., a 240V console powered by a 120V power source).

      Kenneth AlvarezAug 27, 2025
      If there is no power to the Red Lion totalizer display screen on your Apex Instruments Laboratory Equipment, verify the connector or wires in the bottom-right corner of the rear of the totalizer unit are secure. Ensure the console main power switch is turned on and the console is plugged into a working power outlet with the correct voltage output. Check the main circuit breaker on the front of the console; if it's extended, push it in. If it repeatedly trips, turn off the console, disconnect power, and remove it from service for inspection and repair.

    • B
      Bridget HawkinsAug 28, 2025
      If the probe, oven, or AUX of your Apex Instruments Laboratory Equipment is not heating or receiving power, turn on the switch for the appropriate temperature controller. Ensure the power output is securely connected on the console faceplate and the umbilical cable. Verify that the Fuji controller settings are correct and adjusted to the correct set point.

    How to troubleshoot inaccurate TC readings on Apex Instruments XC-500 Laboratory Equipment?
    • S
      Scott HornAug 30, 2025
      If the TCs on your Apex Instruments Laboratory Equipment are reading inaccurately, adjust the TC offset with Jenco offset screws using a calibrated temperature simulator. If the TC channels are not reading at all, ensure all TC wires are connected at the rear of the TC jacks inside of the console. Also, ensure all TC wires are in good condition and are in their plugs on the umbilical and other sampling equipment.

    Why is the Apex Instruments XC-500 DGM volume not increasing?
    • C
      Christopher AdamsSep 1, 2025
      If the DGM volume on your Apex Instruments Laboratory Equipment is not increasing or the index is not spinning, reposition the console to stand upright. Check all fittings and tubing inside the console for leaks and repair if necessary. For digital model consoles only, find the scaling factor on the most recent full calibration and input this value into the settings through the console menu option.

    What causes vacuum gauge to read non-zero on Apex Instruments XC-500?
    • A
      Andrea KingSep 3, 2025
      If the vacuum gauge on your Apex Instruments Laboratory Equipment reads a non-zero value with no flow going through the system, replace the vacuum gauge. Also, check the tubing connections between the inlet to the console and the vacuum gauge.

    How to fix Apex Instruments XC-500 Laboratory Equipment oven that doesn’t heat or heats slowly?
    • M
      Michael ClineSep 4, 2025
      If the oven of your Apex Instruments Laboratory Equipment doesn’t heat or heats slowly, verify that the correct thermocouple is plugged in. Also, verify that the Fuji temperature controller settings are correct and adjusted to the correct set point. Check all connections for the oven power (output on console end, output on sample case end, and TCs).

    Why does Apex Instruments Laboratory Equipment maximum vacuum or flow rate decrease?
    • J
      jmillerSep 7, 2025
      If the maximum vacuum or flow rate of your Apex Instruments Laboratory Equipment decreases, replace the filters. Other potential causes are an obstruction in the sample flow path, blockage or kinks in plumbing or a leak in console plumbing or sample train.
