What to do if my MSA Gas Detectors show Calibration Required?
If your MSA Gas Detectors indicate 'Calibration Required', it means the sensor needs calibration. Calibrate the sensor(s) attached to the instrument.
What to do if my MSA Gas Detectors have Zero Calibration Fault?
If your MSA Gas Detectors indicate a 'Zero Calibration Fault', it means the sensor did not pass the Zero calibration operation. Acknowledge the fault to revert to the previous calibration. This fault can be caused by: 1. A bad sensor 2. The sensor is trying to zero while span gas is being applied. Check the zero gas cylinder is correct and within expiration date. If not using zero gas, ensure that there is not a background concentration of the target gas in the atmosphere. Go through the calibration process again after verifying. If the fault persists, replace the sensor.
What to do if my MSA Gas Detectors show ACT Fault?
If your MSA Gas Detectors display an 'ACT Fault', it indicates an out of range measurement. Replace the sensor.
What does it mean if my MSA Gas Detectors show Sensor End of Life Fault?
If your MSA Gas Detectors show a 'Sensor End of Life Fault', it means the sensor is at the end of its life. Try recalibrating the sensor. If the error persists after recalibration, replace the sensor.
What does it mean if my MSA Gas Detectors have Life and Health Fault?
If your MSA Gas Detectors display a 'Life and Health Fault', it means the sensor is at the end of its life. Try to recalibrate the sensor to extend its life. If the error doesn't clear after recalibration, replace the sensor.
What should I do if my MSA Gas Detectors show Channel Error?
If your MSA Gas Detectors display a 'Channel Error', it indicates an error in the mA output system. Reset the sensor. Verify sensor configurations (if different from default values), then recalibrate the sensor. If the issue persists, replace the sensor.
What to do if my MSA Gas Detectors have Beads Off Fault?
If your MSA Gas Detectors show 'Beads Off Fault', it indicates that the combustible sensors beads are OFF. Acknowledge or cycle power to the sensor. Let the sensor warmup, then recalibrate the sensor. If this does not resolve the issue, replace the sensor.
Why does my MSA Gas Detectors display Negative Drift?
If your MSA Gas Detectors are showing 'Negative Drift', it means the sensor is reading downscale. Recalibrate the sensor.
What does it mean if my MSA Gas Detectors display Reference Failure?
If your MSA Gas Detectors display 'Reference Failure', it indicates an out of range measurement. Replace the sensor.
What does it mean if my MSA Gas Detectors display Sensor Element Error?
If your MSA Gas Detectors display 'Sensor Element Error', it means the sensor is broken. Replace the sensor.
