What to do if Helmer QuickThaw DH8 shows 'E1' high temperature alarm?
- LLindsay BrownAug 9, 2025
If the 'E1' high temperature alarm appears on your Helmer Laboratory Equipment, here's what you can do: First, ensure the plasma thawer setpoint is below the high temperature alarm setpoint with at least a 1.0 °C difference. Also, make sure the chamber has water, as an empty chamber can trigger the alarm quickly. Check the power to the heater and heater triac. If necessary, replace the heater, heater triac, temperature control sensor, temperature controller, or control board, depending on where the fault lies. Finally, check all connections from the control board to the temperature controller and temperature control sensor, securing them if needed.
