Troubleshooting BIR3 Components
CAUTION: Turn off water supplies to unit before troubleshooting.
Problem: | An individual operating station drips and fails to shut off. |
Cause: | There is debris trapped between the diaphragm and the valve seat. |
Solution: | Remove debris between diaphragm and the valve seat. |
Disconnect the plug from the battery to the circuit board of the problem valve. Remove the three #8
Problem: | An individual operating station fails to turn on or off. |
Cause: | A dead or faulty battery. |
Solution: | Test the station to determine cause and replace battery if required. |
Disconnect the plug from the battery to the circuit board of the problem valve. Disconnect the plug from the battery to the circuit board of an adjacent valve. Connect the battery plug from the adjacent working valve to the problem valve. Wait for ten seconds. Activate the problem station’s sensor ten times. The station should turn on. If the station turns on, and cycles normally, replace the battery.
Cause: | Faulty sensor eyes. |
Solution: | Test station to determine cause; replace sensor eyes if |
required. |
|
Disconnect the sensor cable from the circuit board of the problem valve. Disconnect the sensor cable from the circuit board of an adjacent working valve. Connect the sensor cable from the adjacent working valve to the problem valve. Activate the problem station’s sensor. The station should turn on. If the station turns on and cycles normally, replace the sensor eyes.
Cause: | Faulty solenoid valve. |
Solution: | Test station to determine cause; replace solenoid valve if |
| required. |
Remove the screw, circuit board and standoff from the problem valve. Remove the battery holder. With a good working battery, briefly contact the solenoid valve directly with the battery as shown in Figure 12a. The contact should cause the valve to open. With the battery holder removed, briefly contact the solenoid valve with the battery in the position shown in Figure 12b. This should cause the valve to close. If the valve does not operate when directly contacted with a good battery, and the solenoid valve has already been cleaned as outlined at the beginning of this troubleshooting section, replace the solenoid valve.
If problems persist:
Pass your hand in front of the problem station, while at the same time looking to see if the indicator light on the circuit board flashes (the indicator light is located near the hole in the circuit board where the standoff is mounted). If it does not flash, and the battery and sensor eyes have already been tested as outlined above, the problem may be with the circuit board. Make a note of the numbers printed on the circuit board, then contact your Bradley representative for assistance.
