What to do if Thermo Scientific NCS-3500RS Laboratory Equipment displays 'Flow meter recently changed'?
If the Zero Balance Test and the CalibrateWP command have not been performed after installing the ProFlow flow meter: 1. Perform the Zero Balance Test. 2. From Chromeleon, perform the CalibrateWP command for both pump heads.
Why Thermo Scientific NCS-3500RS cannot regulate flow?
If the NC pump cannot build up sufficient pressure to deliver the selected flow rate, consider these potential causes and solutions: * Ensure the solvent reservoir is full. * Purge the pump to remove any trapped air. * Check for leaks in the system; find and eliminate any sources of leakage, tightening connections as needed. * Replace the frit in the solvent supply line filter if it's clogged. * Replace the inlet valve cartridge if it is blocked.
What to do if Thermo Scientific Laboratory Equipment cannot pressurize the system?
If pressure buildup fails, the possible causes and solutions are: * Check for air bubbles in the system and purge the pump. * If the inlet valve is defective, replace the valve cartridge. * If the solvent reservoir is empty, fill it and then purge the pump.
Why calibration procedure failed in Thermo Scientific NCS-3500RS Laboratory Equipment?
If the calibration procedure fails because pressure cannot be built up and held, consider the following possible causes: * Ensure the purge valves are closed. * Verify that the fitting plug is correctly installed. * Check for leaks in the system. Find and eliminate any leaks, tightening any loose connections. Afterward, repeat the command.
What does it mean when the LED flashes red on Thermo Scientific NCS-3500RS Laboratory Equipment?
If the LED flashes red, it indicates that the pistons are not in the correct position for normal operation, possibly after piston replacement, or an error occurred during internal maintenance. To resolve this: 1. Open the purge valve. 2. Perform the Dock Pistons command. 3. Close the purge valve.
What to do if Thermo Scientific NCS-3500RS displays 'Flow meter failure'?
If invalid values are reported for one or more pressure transducers of the flow meter, verify that the flow meter is installed properly.
What to do if Thermo Scientific NCS-3500RS Laboratory Equipment displays 'Flow meter missing'?
If communication with the flow meter failed, verify that the flow meter is installed properly.
What to do if Thermo Scientific NCS-3500RS Laboratory Equipment displays 'Flow selector missing'?
If the flow selector in the Classic flow meter may not be installed or the installation may not be correct, verify that the flow selector is installed properly.
What to do if Thermo Scientific Laboratory Equipment can't reset pressure sensor because pressure is out of range?
If the pump pressure is not down to zero during the self test, wait until the pressure is down and repeat the test. Verify that the cable for the system pressure transducer is properly connected to the P-Sys connector for the loading pump on the interior front panel. Open and close the purge valve if necessary to reduce the pressure.
Why flow calibration failed with Implausible measurement results in Thermo Scientific NCS-3500RS Laboratory Equipment?
If flow calibration of the ProFlow flow meter yields implausible measurement results, a mismatch between the solvent and the sensor selected for calibration was detected. Repeat the flow calibration with the correct solvent or change the solvent. Contact Service.
