DGS - Troubleshooting
Symptom Possible Cause(s)
LED off • Check power supply.  Check 
wiring.
• DGS Modbus was possibly 
damaged in transit. Check 
by installing another DGS to 
confirm the fault.
Green flashing The sensor calibration interval 
has been exceeded or the 
sensor has reached the end 
of life.
Carry out calibration routine 
or replace with a new factory 
calibrated sensor. 
Yellow • AO configured but not 
connected (only 0-20 mA 
output). Check wiring.
• Sensor type does not match 
DGS specification. Check gas 
type and measuring range.
• Sensor may be disconnected 
from printed circuit board.  
Check to see sensor is 
properly connected.
• The sensor has been 
damaged and needs to 
be exchanged.  Order 
replacement sensor from 
Danfoss.
• Supply voltage out of range. 
Check power supply.
Yellow flashing  • The DGS is set to service 
mode from the hand held 
service tool. Change setting 
or await time out within 15 
minutes.
Alarms in the absence of a leak • If you experience alarms in 
the absence of a leak, try 
setting an alarm delay.
• Perform a bump test to 
ensure proper operation.
The zero-measurement drifts The DGS-SC sensor 
technology is sensitive to the 
environment (temperature, 
moist, cleaning agents, gas' 
from trucks, etc). All ppm 
measurements below 75ppm 
should be disregarded, i.e. no 
zero-adjustment made.
