For panel-mounted instruments, clean the front panel as prescribed

in the above paragraph. DO NOT wipe front panel while the instrument
is controlling your process.

5.7 Troubleshooting

Table 5-2: Troubleshooting

Problem Possible

Cause Solution

Erratic readings of the
oxygen concentration
as reported by the
analyzer

Analyzer may have
been calibrated in an
inaccurate fashion.

Recalibrate analyzer,
making sure the
proper gas is fed, and
the proper value of
span gas is input.

Atmospheric oxygen
diffusing through vent
and altering the
oxygen level the
sensor sees

Increase flow rate
and/or length of vent
tubing to dilute or
minimize oxygen
diffusion from vent to
sensor.

Inaccurate zero
operation

Zero calibration using a
gas with a
concentration different
from air.

Rezero the instrument
using air.
