    What to do if M&C Analytical Instruments cooler alarm registers ‘excess temperature’?
    • J
      James DixonAug 20, 2025
      If the cooler alarm registers ‘excess temperature’, check if the supply voltage plug is correctly inserted and if the main switch is in the ‘I’ position. The cooler might be turning the gas measuring pump off automatically.

    How to check M&C Analytical Instruments for sample gas flow?
    • H
      hartpeterAug 22, 2025
      To check for sample gas flow, remove the sample gas hose on the analyzer side and check via the hose thread. If there's no gas flow, clean any contaminated leads or replace them.

    What to do if M&C PSS shows temperature controller display error?
    • K
      katiepayneSep 4, 2025
      If your M&C Industrial Equipment's temperature controller display shows an error, it might be due to: * Bad contact of the PT100 sensor signal wire: Open the top cover to check the thermostat PT100 sensor wiring. * PT100 sensor signal wiring error: Check if the wiring is correct. * Damaged PT100 sensor: Replace the PT100 sensor.

    What to do if cooler and sample gas pump are running but there is condensate in the sample gas line of M&C PSS?
    • C
      Chad ChapmanSep 6, 2025
      If you observe condensate in the sample gas line while the cooler and sample gas pump are running, consider these potential causes and solutions: * **Pump tube defect**: Replace the pump tube. * **Sensor issue**: Check the functionality of the LA sensor, as it might not be turning off the pump when it should.

    Why is there a gas flow interruption in my M&C PSS Industrial Equipment?
    • D
      Donna VillanuevaSep 10, 2025
      A gas flow interruption can occur due to several reasons: * **No voltage**: Check the supply voltage against the model type plate. Verify if mains voltage is applied to X1/2 and X1/3. Also, inspect the fine fuse on the terminal mounting rail. * **High ambient temperature**: High ambient temperature can cause gas flow interruption. Ensure free convection in the optional cabinet is not impaired and that the cabinet temperature is not too high.
