Description of Error Message
Probable Cause of Error Message
The cassette temperature failed to reach 95°C in 3
minutes.
This error message occurs only during warm up. The
most probable causes are:
1. Steam generator does not heat up. No power to steam
generator. Blown thermal fuse.
2. Check for a large cassette leak or a large load.
The cassette temperature failed to increase from
95°C to 100°C within 1 minute 20 seconds.
Most probable causes are a faulty cassette seal,
miscalibration, a damaged cassette, improperly adjusted
or failed microswitch allowing unit to function when
cassette is not fully inserted. Occasionally, a low pressure
weather system in higher altitude sites will alter the
boiling temperature significantly and trigger this fault.
Verify Vref to be 4.0V.
The cassette has failed to pressurize and achieve a
temperature of 110°C within 70 seconds of
pressurization.
This may be caused by a faulty or worn cassette seal, a
faulty or dirty solenoid valve, a damaged cassette or a
faulty exhaust tube, leaky check valve or pressure relief
valve.
The cassette has failed to achieve sterilization
conditions within 10 minutes of the chamber first
reaching
102°C.
Several conditions may cause this: a damaged or worn
cassette seal, a faulty solenoid valve, an improperly
installed copper tubing, cassette thermocouple
misalignment or damage, a faulty steam generator
pressure relief valve or a faulty check valve on.
The software causes the pump to activate while
This indicates a substantial steam leak from the cassette,
