Check Temperature and Level Sensors
To check the Temperature and Level Sensors, follow the procedure below.
1. Access the Diagnostics screen (see the "Access Diagnostics
Screen" section for details).
2. With the Diagnostics screen displayed, press the ENTER button on
the Keypad. The screen to the right will be displayed.
3. Press the Down Arrow button ( v) on the Keypad. The screen to
the right will be displayed.
4. Press the ENTER button on the Keypad. The screen to the right
will be displayed showing the current Temperature and Level
Sensor readings.
When the instrument has not been run for more than two hours, the temperature should read the ambient
temperature of the room. If the temperature reading does not show ambient temperature when the
instrument is cool, contact ANKOM Technology.
When the Level Sensor in the instrument Vessel is not covered by liquid, the Level Sensor should read
10.00v. If the reading is less than 10.00v and the Level Sensor is not covered by liquid, clean the Level
Sensor Tip inside the Vessel with a cotton swab and alcohol. If the Level Sensor reading is between
5.00 - 10.00v after cleaning the tip, the instrument will run, but you should consider replacing the tip.
Contact ANKOM Technology for more information.
When the instrument Vessel is filled with liquid that covers the Level Sensor, the Level Sensor should
read less than 3.00v. If the Level Sensor reading is more than 3.00v when the sensor is covered by liquid,
contact ANKOM Technology.
If you fill the Vessel with water during Diagnostics, wipe the Vessel dry before
running the instrument.
5. Press the STOP button on the Keypad to go back to the Analog
screen (shown to the right).
6. Press the STOP button on the Keypad to go back to the main
Diagnostics screen (shown to the right).
