How to fix a blank LCD screen on my RKI Instruments Gas Detectors?
If the LCD screen is blank on your RKI Instruments Gas Detector, first, ensure the unit is turned on by pressing and briefly holding the POWER ENTER RESET button. If it still doesn't turn on, the alkaline batteries may need replacement, or the Ni-MH batteries need recharging. Replace the alkaline batteries or recharge the Ni-MH batteries.
Why does auto calibration fail on my RKI Instruments Gas Detectors?
If auto calibration or single calibration fails on your RKI Instruments Gas Detectors, check all calibration tubing for leaks or bad connections. The charcoal filter might be saturated, causing an elevated CO reading, so replace it. Ensure the EAGLE 2 is properly set up for calibration. Verify the calibration cylinder contains an adequate supply of fresh test sample. If the problem persists, the sensor for the affected channel(s) may need replacement.
What to do if RKI Instruments Gas Detectors show abnormal readings?
If the LCD on your RKI Instruments Gas Detectors shows abnormally high or low readings, but other gas detection instruments do not, the unit may need to be recalibrated. If the issue persists, the sensor for the affected channel(s) may need replacement; replace the sensor and calibrate the affected channel(s).
Why does my RKI Instruments Gas Detectors show a flow failure?
If your RKI Instruments Gas Detectors indicates a flow failure that doesn't recover after pressing the POWER ENTER RESET button, inspect the probe tube for obstructions. Also, check the hydrophobic filter disk in the probe and replace it if dirty. Inspect the sample hose for kinks or obstructions and replace if necessary. Finally, inspect the internal hydrophobic filter and replace it if it's dirty. The pump may be malfunctioning.
How to fix SYSTEM FAIL 12 on RKI Instruments Gas Detectors?
If your RKI Instruments Gas Detectors displays “SYSTEM FAIL 12” during startup, a memory error has occurred. Press and hold the RANGE ? SHIFT button, then press the DISPLAY ADJUST NO button and release both to access the Enter Password Screen. Enter the password “1994” to proceed to the Set Default Screen. Press and release the AIR ? YES button twice to restore the defaults.
