    What causes Module Failure in Magnetrol Thermatel TA2 Measuring Instruments?
    • C
      Cody DavisSep 23, 2025
      If your Magnetrol Measuring Instruments experience a Module Failure, and no readings are received from the ADCs, or the values are out of range, it requires replacement of the processor board or return of the unit to the factory.

    What to do if there is install factor error in Magnetrol Thermatel TA2?
    • J
      John CrawfordAug 23, 2025
      This message may occur if the units of measurement were changed after install factors were entered. Check and recalculate the install factors.

    What to do if pulse multiplier error in Magnetrol Thermatel TA2?
    • D
      Daniel RobertsAug 26, 2025
      If the maximum pulse output exceeds the maximum frequency selected, increase the Pulse Multiplier.

    What to do if AO2 loop current is fixed in Magnetrol Measuring Instruments?
    • L
      Lisa Rogers DVMAug 27, 2025
      If the second 4–20 mA loop (AO2) is not responding, check informational messages.

    What to do if there is no output signal and no display on Magnetrol Measuring Instruments?
    • C
      Crystal NewmanAug 28, 2025
      If your Magnetrol Measuring Instruments display shows no output signal and there is no display, the issue might be a lack of input power. Verify that LED D6 on the input wiring board is lit. If it isn't, inspect the wiring connections. Also, check the F1 and F2 tests to ensure the fuses protecting the input wiring are functional.

    What to do if Install Factors are incorrect in Magnetrol Thermatel TA2 Measuring Instruments?
    • J
      John GordonSep 18, 2025
      If the Install Factors are incorrect in your Magnetrol Measuring Instruments, it means the install factors entered under Advanced Configuration result in a non-monotonically increasing curve. Check the factors.

    What to do if there are too few calibration points in Magnetrol Thermatel TA2 Measuring Instruments?
    • Y
      yhardinSep 15, 2025
      If there are too few calibration points in your Magnetrol Measuring Instruments, it means the calibration table does not contain a sufficient number of data points for the flow range. A minimum of ten points is required.
  • M
    Melody HillSep 16, 2025
    What to do if Air Equivalency Coefficients are incorrect in Magnetrol Thermatel TA2 Measuring Instruments?
    • J
      Jessica SmithSep 16, 2025
      If the Air Equivalency Coefficients are incorrect in your Magnetrol Measuring Instruments, it means that the Air Equivalency factors used result in a non-monotonically increasing curve over the operating range. Check the factors.
  • E

    What causes Temperature Sensor Failure in Magnetrol Measuring Instruments?
    • C
      Christine LopezSep 7, 2025
      If your Magnetrol Measuring Instruments display a Temperature Sensor Failure, it could be due to a short or an open circuit in the RTD measuring the process temperature, or in the interconnecting wiring (if remote electronics). Check the wiring to the probe.
  • G

    What to do if Non-Volatile Memory corruption occurs in Magnetrol Thermatel TA2?
    • C
      Caitlin ClarkSep 4, 2025
      If your Magnetrol Measuring Instruments are experiencing Non-Volatile Memory corruption, re-verify that all calibration and configuration factors in the device match the calibration certificate.
