6.3 CHAMBER ERRORS
6.3.1 Waste Bottle is full
Monitor Timing: At time of analysis start, before sample dispensing
Monitor Method: The float switch in the waste bottle monitors the waste.
CA-500’s Action: Interruption
(1) Probable Cause
1. The waste bottle is full.
2. The float switch connector is disconnected.
3. Failure of float switch
(2) Confirmation by the Operation
1. Empty the waste bottle.
2. Securely connect the float switch connector.
(3) Confirmation by Service Engineer
1. If an error can be solved by the short-circuiting 2 pins connector on the rear panel for float switch, the
float switch is failed.
6.3.2 Replenish Rinse Reagent
Monitor Timing: At time of analysis start, before sample dispensing
Monitor Method: The float switch in the rinse bottle monitors the liquid level.

(1) Probable Cause
1. The rinse liquid is insufficient in the rinse bottle.
2. The connector of the float switch is disconnected.
3. Failure of float switch
5. Failure of PCB No. 6362
(2) Confirmation by the Operator
1. Replenish rinse solution.
2. Securely connect the float switch connector.
(3) Confirmation by Service Engineer
