Measures to Take When an Error Occurs

12.1.2.1

Error-1: Cell Voltage Failure

Error-1 occurs when the cell (sensor) voltage input to the converter falls below -50 mV
(corresponding to about 200% O

2

). The following are considered to be the causes for

the cell voltage falling below -50 mV:

(1) Poor contact in terminal connections between the converter and detector
(2) Breakage in wiring cable between the converter and the detector
(3) Damage or deterioration of the sensor assembly
(4) Continuity failure between the sensor assembly electrode and the contact
(5) Wiring failure inside the detector
(6) Abnormality in electrical circuits in the converter

Turn off power to the converter.

Is there any breakage

or poor contact in the wiring to the

converter terminals?

Is there any breakage

or poor contact in the wiring to the

detector terminals?

Is the sensor extremely

dirty, corroded or broken?

Is there any

disconnection or poor continuity

in the wiring between the

detector and

converter?

Is an error indicated
on the display?

End. Carry out calibration.

Replace the damaged
portions.

Examine the wiring connection to

converter terminals "CELL+" and
"CELL-" Also, check the wiring
connection in the repeater terminal
box if it is used.

Examine the wiring connection status to

detector terminals 1 and 2.
Also, check that terminals and cable
conductors are not corroded.

Replace the damaged
portions.

Remove the sensor assembly from the detector

and check for the presence of corrosion that may
cause a poor contact between the electrode and
the contact; also, check for dirt. A sensor assembly
in which no abnormality is found may be used again.
However, be sure to use a new metal O-ring and
contact even in such a case.

Replace the sensor
assembly.

See Section 10.1.3 for the
replacement procedure.

Remove the wiring conductors from detector

terminals 1 and 2 and short out the removed
conductors. Measure the resistance of these
wiring conductors on the converter side.
The resistance value is normal if it indicates
10

or less.

Replace the wiring cable.

Turn on the power to the converter and temporarily

place the analyzer in the operating status.

Replace the sensor
assembly and temporarily
place the analyzer in the
operating status.

See Section 10.1.3 for the replacement
procedure.

The analyzer operates normally.

A failure in the detector or
the converter is suspected.
