SECTION V – SERVICE INFORMATION
OVERLOAD CONDITION
Your Ultrasonic Atomizer was designed to provide you with years of safe and
dependable service. Nevertheless, because of component failure or improper usage, the
possibility does exist that it might not perform as it should, shut down due to an overload
condition or that it will stop working all together. The most probable causes for
malfunction are listed below and should be investigated.
The unit was plugged into an electrical outlet that provides a different voltage from
that required. See Electrical Requirements.
The probe is not secured properly.
A fuse(s) has failed. If a fuse(s) has failed, proceed as follows:
1.
Turn the unit off by depressing the key, and disconnect the line cord from
the electrical outlet.
2.
Open the fuse holder cover using a small screwdriver, and pull out the red fuse
holder from its housing.
3.
Replace the fuse(s).
4.
Reconnect the line cord to the electrical outlet, press the key and set the
amplitude to 100. With the probe in air (out of the sample), the wattmeter should
read below 10 watts. If the reading exceeds 10 watts, press the key, and
disconnect the probe from the converter.
5.
Press the key. If the wattmeter reads below 10 watts, the probe has failed or
is out of tune due to excessive erosion, and should be replaced, if the wattmeter
reads above 10 watts, either the converter or power supply has failed and the
complete Ultrasonic Processor should be returned for repair.
