463X Chlorine System Manual
The troubleshooting table below outlines possible causes and remedies related to the À ow cell panel system.
Refer to the respective transmitter and sensor manuals for speci¿ c component troubleshooting.
Problem
Possible Cause
Remedies
No water À ow
Inlet pressure below 1 bar (15 psi)
Check source pressure. Remove regulator if pressure is
< 1 bar/15 psi
Damaged À ow regulator
Replace À ow regulator
Clogged ¿ lter
Clean ¿ lter or remove pressure regulator if inlet pressure is
below 1 bar (15 psi)
Low water À ow
Clogged ¿ lter
Clean ¿ lter
Insuf¿ cient inlet pressure
Increase inlet pressure to speci¿ cation or remove À ow
regulator
Damaged À ow regulator
Inspect or replace
Excessive À ow
Excessive pressure over 8 bar (120 psi) Ensure inlet pressure does not exceed 8 bar (120 psi)
Damaged À ow regulator
Replace À ow regulator
Flow cell leaks
Incorrect assembly
Inspect, clean, and reassemble
Loose bolts
Tighten bolts (8.1 Nm, 72 Lb-In Max)
Defective or missing O-rings
Replace O-rings
Damaged sealing surfaces
Replace À ow cell
Leaks around sensor
Damaged sensor O-ring
Inspect or replace O-ring
Damaged À ow cell
Inspect À ow cell
Water leaks out of top vent hole
Drain valve closed or plugged
Inspect
Hose connections are backwards
Connect water source correctly
Outlet drain not below À ow cell
Route drain line below À ow cell and vented to atmosphere
Algae growth in À ow cell
Low chlorine concentration in water
Locate À ow cell away from light
Exposure to light
Excessive small bubbles in À ow
cell accumulating on sensors
Water source contains bubbles
Check water source
Water source is saturated with
dissolved gasses
Transmitter does not turn on
No power or external circuit breaker is
switched off
Inspect power and wiring connections
Loose or incorrect wire connections
Check connections
Open loop wiring or missing jumper
wire on terminal 1 (Loop 1) on the
wiring enclosure terminal block
Replace jumper wire to terminal 1 or connect a loop device
if the jumper wire to terminal 1 is removed
Chlorine reading too high
Breached membrane
Replace membrane and ¿ ll solution
Chlorine reading too low
Low À ow rate
Check source pressure
Filter clogged
Clean the ¿ lter
Sensor conditioning not long enough
Allow the sensor to condition for 4 hours
(See 2630 or 2632 sensor manual for details)
Sensor output drifts
Variable À ow rate
Check À ow rate
Clogged ¿ lter
Clean the ¿ lter
Contaminated ¿ ll solution
Change electrolyte ¿ ll solution
