    Why does my Hach Met One 6000 show a high count alarm?
    • A
      Austin JohnsonAug 7, 2025
      If the Hach Cash Counter displays a high count alarm, it could be due to high counts in the room. In this case, troubleshoot the process to determine the source of the counts. Alternatively, the probe may be placed near a source of contamination, so try repositioning the probe. It is also possible that there is a potential sensor contamination. To check it: 1. Use a portable counter to confirm the counts from the remote counter. 2. If the count is similar, the problem is with the process and not the counter. If the count is lower, use a zero count filter to clean the internal components. 3. If the count is still high, send the counter to a service center for repair.

    How to troubleshoot communication failure on Hach Cash Counter?
    • M
      Megan KramerAug 15, 2025
      A communication failure in the Hach Cash Counter can occur due to several reasons. First, examine the system for loose or incorrect connections. Second, the unit may not be configured, so configure the counter using the setup utility program. Finally, if using the FXB communication protocol, an intermittent connection problem may exist, so use the CRTS (communication reliable test software) to find the problem.

    What to do if Hach Met One 6000 Cash Counter shows a flow failure?
    • M
      michael52Aug 27, 2025
      If the Hach Cash Counter experiences a flow failure, several issues could be the cause. First, check if the cap placed on the inlet probe during wash down was not removed; if so, remove the cap from the probe. Second, examine both sample and vacuum tubing for bends that may restrict the air flow. Third, examine the vacuum line and fittings for leaks in the system. Finally, the vacuum pump may have failed, so repair the vacuum pump.
