What to do if injection quantity slowly rises in Siemens Control Unit?
If your Siemens Control Unit's injection quantity slowly rises, leading to a double peak with the calibration medium, poor peak form, a platform following the peak, an increase in baseline, and visible sample discharge, it's likely due to worn gaskets or stem. Replace the gaskets or stem to resolve this issue.
What to do if sample is not getting injected in Siemens Control Unit?
If your Siemens Control Unit chromatogram is interrupted, and the sample isn't being injected, it could be due to a leaky pneumatic actuator, used-up grease, damaged O-rings, or control pressure that's too low. To fix this, clean the pneumatic actuator, replace the O-rings, and grease the sliding surfaces and O-rings.
Why are there scratches on the stem of my Siemens Control Unit?
If you notice thin scratches on the stem near the sample groove of your Siemens Control Unit, it's likely due to sample contamination by particles that get lodged in the gasket and scratch the stem during injection. Check the filter from the sample system and replace it if necessary. Also, replace the stem and gasket.
How to fix small and wide peaks in Siemens Control Unit?
If peaks are too small and wide in your Siemens Control Unit, especially those with higher boiling points, it's likely that the heating plate is faulty or the vaporization temperature is too low. Replace the heating plate and set a higher equalization temperature.
How to fix smaller peaks in Siemens Control Unit?
If all peaks appear smaller in your Siemens Control Unit, it could be due to a blockage in the sample flow unit or injection, or a buildup of material on the injection stem. Clean the injection hole, stem, vaporizer, and sample flow unit. If needed, replace the gaskets.
Why is the injection stem rough in my Siemens Control Unit?
If the section of the injection stem that is normally in the sample flow stream (near the notch) of your Siemens Control Unit is rough, it's likely due to a corrosive sample. Consider replacing the injection stem with a version made of a material more compatible with the sample chemical, such as Hastelloy.
What to do if there are deposits in the vaporizer of Siemens Control Unit?
If the space between the stem and the inside wall of the vaporizer in your Siemens Control Unit is filled with deposits, potentially blocking the carrier gas supply or resulting in deposits on the stem, it's likely that the sample contains dissolved salts and other nonvolatile materials. You can remove the deposits in the vaporizer mechanically (drill/ream with 3.3 mm diameter), or replace the part.
