What to do if sample pump of Seitron Measuring Instruments isn't working properly?
- B
  Brian MurilloAug 15, 2025
  If the sample pump of your Seitron Measuring Instruments sounds slow, stops, or doesn't start, check for obstructions in the sample flow by cleaning the water filter and ensuring the hose connected to the probe isn't crushed. Also, verify the particulate filter is clean and that the pump's electrical connector is properly connected to the printed circuit board. If these steps don't resolve the issue, the pump may be faulty and need replacement. Finally, ensure the pump hasn't been disabled by a key combination; if so, restart the instrument.

  If the values displayed on the analysis screen of your Seitron Measuring Instruments seem unreliable, start by checking that the sensors are correctly installed via the sensor diagnostics menu. Inspect all joints and the hose for leaks in the sample probe connection. If the issue persists, the pump might be faulty and require replacement. In some cases, the instrument itself may be faulty and need to be sent to a service center for repair.

Why do I get a sensor error after auto-calibration on Seitron CHEMIST 600 Measuring Instruments?
- K
  kerrrodneySep 1, 2025
  If, after auto-calibration, the sensor diagnostics screen of your Seitron Measuring Instruments displays an error for one or more cells, it could be due to auto-calibration occurring while flue gas was being sampled. Also, check the O2 sensor's connections and condition, referring to sections 10.6.2, 10.7.1, and 15.0. The sensor may also need adequate adjustment time, or the instrument may have been left with a low battery for too long.

Why is the battery life so short on my Seitron CHEMIST 600 Measuring Instruments?
- B
  Billy KingSep 12, 2025
  If the battery operating time of your Seitron Measuring Instruments is less than 9 hours, it could be due to the battery capacity being limited by low temperatures. Storing the instrument at higher temperatures is recommended to extend battery life. Alternatively, the battery pack may be old and need replacement if its life has become unacceptable.
