Fault removal multi N/C 2100S
96
Minimum sample volume > cup volume
Cause Remedy
for sample supply with sampler:
sample volume selected too large
number of detections too high
check configuration in the method:
sample volume/rinsing volume
adjust number of detections (repeat measurements)
to the cup volume
8.3 Status errors – indications in the window System state
Note:
Status errors are shown in the window S
YSTEM STATE in red or yellow. All indications with
MFC values only relate to the multi N/C 2100S.
Error indication
Flow indication MFC: 160 ml/min
Flow indication MFM: < 150 ml/min
Cause Remedy
TIC septum leaking Replace septum
Automatic lock leaking see under Automatic lock leaking on p. 102
union nut at the lock not tightened correctly (after
catalyst replacement)
carrier gas supply to the TC lock not screwed in
properly (after catalyst replacement)
sealing rings at the combustion tube faulty (severely
deformed) or not attached (after catalyst replacement)
TIC condensate container FAST connector leaking
connections at the water trap system loose (after
installing water traps, installing halogen trap)
check screw connections for completeness, deformation,
tighten if necessary
check carrier gas supply (FAST connector at the analyzer
wall and screw connection at the lock)
check all connection points (water traps) and replace if
necessary
connection between combustion tube and
condensation coil leaking
check connection between combustion tube and
condensation coil (tight fit of the fork clamp)
combustion tube faulty (cracks, fractures at the edge)
TIC condensate faulty (fractures at the connections)
check glass components, replace if faulty
Water traps clogged Replacing the water traps
condensate pump hose leaking check condensate pump, replace hose if necessary
Flow indication MFC: 160 ml/min
Flow indication MFM 1: < 150 ml/min or > 170 ml/min
Cause Remedy
MFM (mass flow sensor) faulty check flow with external mass flow sensor to confirm error
if possible
inform Service
halogen trap filling used up check halogen trap
