What to do if my Covaris S Series shows no power?
If your Covaris Laboratory Equipment isn't powering on, first ensure the line cord is properly connected. If it is, check and replace the fuse S1/S2 in the line entry module. Also, check the Green LED2 on tuning board S220 and Green D1 on the Controller Board.
Why is my Covaris S Series ineffective and making a loud buzzing noise?
Ineffective treatment and buzzing from your Covaris Laboratory Equipment can occur if the bath temperature is too high, the bath is contaminated, not sufficiently degassed, or there is insufficient acoustic power. Verify chiller operation. Clean the bath, change the water, and degas it, checking the oxygen level with a DO meter. Run an acoustic power test.
What to do if my Covaris S Series Laboratory Equipment displays a Water Level Error?
A water level error on your Covaris Laboratory Equipment may be due to insufficient bath water, a contaminated level sensor, ambient light hitting the sensor, or a faulty sensor. Fill the bath to the indicator line, clean the bath and level sensor, shield the sensor from stray light, and if necessary, replace the sensor.
What to do if my Covaris Laboratory Equipment shows a Communication Error?
A communication error with your Covaris Laboratory Equipment can stem from corrupted USB drivers, incorrect tuning board switch settings, a defective USB cable, or using a USB cable that is too long. Reload the drivers, verify the correct switch settings, replace the USB cable, and ensure it does not exceed 2 meters in length.
How to fix Safety Interlock Error on Covaris S Series Laboratory Equipment?
To resolve a Safety Interlock Error on your Covaris Laboratory Equipment, verify the bath position and ensure that the lid of the acoustic bracket is fully down.
