What to do if EPS Security Sensors IPES does not react to the test flame?
If the EPS Security Sensors IPES does not react to the test flame, it might be due to optical interference, such as dust or contamination preventing radiation from reaching the detector. Try wiping the protection windows with a soft cloth wetted with denatured isopropyl alcohol (IPA), and then wipe with a clean dry cloth to remove any residue of dirt.
Why are the fault relay contacts open and signaling LEDs blink frequently on my EPS IPES-IR3?
The fault relay contacts might be open, and the signaling LEDs blink frequently on your EPS Security Sensors due to optical interference, such as dust. To resolve this, clean the IPES?IR3 window with commercially available optical lens cleaning pads, optical Lens Cleaning Solution and optical grade suede chamois, flushing the surface with Isopropyl Alcohol or a clean soft cloth or cotton swab dampened with Isopropyl Alcohol. After wiping the surface with alcohol, wipe it again with a dry cloth to remove residual film.
