Troubleshooting

8.0TROUBLESHOOTING

Use this section in troubleshooting your unit. Also refer to 6.0 - Alarm Descriptions and Solu- tions. Suggestions are grouped by product function for convenience.

! WARNING

Only qualified personnel should perform service on these units. Lethal voltage is present in some circuits. Use caution when troubleshooting with power on. Disconnect and lock out power before replacing components. Use caution and standard procedures when working with pressurized pipes and tubes.

! CAUTION

When using jumpers for troubleshooting, always remove jumpers when maintenance is complete. Jumpers left connected could override controls and cause equipment damage.
