      If your Honeywell Monitor displays a 'Pump failed' message or pump alarm, first, check for and remove any obstructions. Then, press the reset button to clear the alarm. If the problem persists, replace the contaminated water trap filter. Also, ensure that water condensation does not occur inside the unit. As a last resort, the pump itself may need to be replaced.

      If your Honeywell Measuring Instruments display a 'Pump failed' message, it indicates a pump alarm. This can be due to several reasons: a blocked inlet probe, direct connection to a gas outlet with the gas valve off, water in the external filter, a dirty external filter, water condensation along the inlet probe, or a faulty pump or pump circuit. Try removing any blocking objects and then press the reset button to clear the pump alarm.

    What does the 'Lamp' message mean on Honeywell Measuring Instruments?
    • B
      Bruce CoxSep 7, 2025
      A 'Lamp' message on your Honeywell Measuring Instruments indicates a lamp alarm. This is often due to low ion concentration inside the PID lamp, especially in cold environments when first powered on, or a defective PID lamp or circuit. Replace the UV lamp.
