Here is a list of the possible alarms with causes and solutions:
Please keep the safety instruction on page 5 in mind when performing any action on the Ferlin One.
1. Door open.
a. The door(3) of the Ferlin One is open. It must be closed to start the Ferlin One.
2. Main hopper(4) almost empty.
a. The main hopper is almost empty. This alarm only occurs if a sensor is fitted in the
sight glass of the hopper. Open the cover to refill the hopper.
3. Main hopper(4) empty.
a. The main hopper is empty. Open the cover to refill it.
4. Small hopper empty.
a. The small hopper of the dosing section(3) is empty. Refill the main hopper (4), the
Ferlin One fills the small hopper itself.
b. If the main hopper (4) is still full check that the 2 air hoses between the hopper and
the housing are connected. Also check that the air supply is connected to the
connector on the housing or filter pressure regulator (7). (pressure should be
between 4 and 6 bar)
5. Not dosing enough.
a. Little to no weight reduction
is detected. There are 4
possible causes.
i. Check that the
motor's large white
connector is
connected, see
picture on the right.
ii. Check that the d-sub
15 cable (grey cable)
is connected to the
housing(2) and to the
control.
iii. Check that the d-sub 9 cable (black cable) is connected to the housing(2) and
to the controller.
iv. Take out the dosing part (6) (disconnect large white connector first) and
check for a build-up of material. Break through this build-up and replace the
dosing part (6).
6. Calculated speed too high.
a. The Ferlin One cannot dose the requested weight in dosing time.
i. Check whether the requested dosage is feasible in the dosing time. The
maximum throughput of the Ferlin One is around 30 kg per hour (8 grams
per second)
