Whenever the microprocessor electronics registers a failure, a complete
shutdown of the heater and circulating pump is performed. The alarm
light " " illuminates and a continuous signal tone sounds.
The LED temperature display indicates the cause for the alarm in form
of a code.
Press the key to quit the audible signal.
 The circulator is operated without bath fluid, or the liquid level is
insufficient.
Replenish the bath tank with the bath fluid.
 Tube breakage has occured (insufficient filling level due to excessive
bath fluid pumped out). Replace the tubing and replenish the bath
tank with the bath fluid.
 Cable of the working temperature sensor interrupted or short-
circuited.
 Defect of the working or excess temperature sensor.
Working temperature and excess temperature sensors report a
temperature difference of more than 35 K.
 Error in A/D converter
 The excess temperature value lies below the working temperature
setpoint.
Set the excess temperature to a higher value.
 Cable of the excess temperature sensor interrupted or short-
circuited.
After eliminating the malfunction, press the mains power switch off and
on again to cancel the alarm state.
If the unit cannot be returned to operation, contact an authorized
JULABO service station.
Disturbances that are not indicated.
Pump motor overload protection
The pump motor is protected against overloading. After a short cooling
interval, the motor will automatically start running.
Cooling compressor overload protection
The motor of the cooling compressor is equipped with an overload
protector, which will be activated by excessive temperature in the
capsule or by excessive current consumption. Poor air circulation
(distance to walls, dirt accumulated on condenser) may cause the motor
to be disconnected. After a short cooling interval, the motor will be
automatically reconnected.
