What does EXCHANGE UV LAMP mean for Millipore Simplicity?
The 'EXCHANGE UV LAMP' message means that the operational lifetime of the UV lamp has expired. Replace the UV lamp.
What does CHECK UV LAMP mean on Millipore Water Filtration Systems?
The 'CHECK UV LAMP' message indicates a defective UV lamp. This occurs when the UV lamp doesn’t light anymore.
Why RESISTIVITY < SP in Millipore Simplicity Water Filtration Systems?
If the resistivity is below the set point, it could be due to an empty reservoir, in which case you should fill it. Alternatively, you may need to install new purification cartridges.
What to do if the Simplicity system is in PRODUCT mode but does not produce any or very little water Millipore?
If your Simplicity system isn't producing water in PRODUCT mode, several issues could be the cause. The tank might be empty, so you should fill it. Ensure the tank is correctly positioned. A clogged SimFilter could be the problem, so replace it. Check if the tank vent filter is plugged; remove the tank lid, and if the flow rate improves, replace the vent filter. Finally, air might be trapped in the SimPak and SimFilter; remove the SimFilter and purge the system.
What does EXCHANGE PACK mean on Millipore Simplicity?
The 'EXCHANGE PACK' message indicates that the operational lifetime of the purification pack has expired, and you should change it.
What to do if there is no electrical power to Millipore Simplicity?
If there's no electrical power to your system, check the source of power. Also, ensure the power cord is properly plugged into the wall.
How to fix PACK OUT error in Millipore Simplicity Water Filtration Systems?
The 'PACK OUT' error indicates that the Pak has not been installed properly or has been removed. Put the Pack back in place.
What to do if Millipore Simplicity Water Filtration Systems switches automatically from PRODUCTION mode to STANDBY mode?
The system is pre-set to produce continuously for a maximum of 10 minutes. Refill the reservoir if necessary and press the OPERATE button.
How to fix EEPROM ERROR on Millipore Water Filtration Systems?
The 'EEPROM ERROR' indicates that the unit needs to be initialized. Press the OPERATE button twice.
