PART 4 - TROUBLESHOOTING

CONDITION

POSSIBLE CAUSE


Unit does not turn “ON” when power is
applied

• Verify that the battery is charged. Plug

into an AC power source.

• Test the fuse.
• Ensure the terminal block located in the

upper left corner of the main PCB is
secure.

• Verify that ribbon cables between PCBs

are connected.


OVERRANGE light is ON

• Increase the value of the FULL SCALE

constant.

• Verify that fluid velocity is not greater than

20 FPS (6.08 MPS).


FAULT light is ON; low SIGNAL
STRENGTH indication

• Ensure that the transducers are properly

mounted to the pipe.

• Verify that transducer connections are

correct.

• Ensure that the pipe is full of moving

liquid.

• Increase SENSITIVITY so that right-most

SIGNAL STRENGTH light just comes ON.

• On cleaner liquids, move the transducers

closer to a 90

o

pipe elbow.

• On dirtier liquids, mount the transducers

as described in CASE 3 in Part 2 of this
manual.

• If the pipe has a polyethylene liner, move

the transducers to another area. The liner
may contain an air void at this location.

(continued)

These procedures require the
face plate to be removed from
the enclosure.
