Troubleshooting

3.1.1 Probe

Caution: When an insulated probe is used in a hazardous and/or

abrasive medium, the probe should be inspected annual-

ly for any nicks, cuts or abrasions which may ruin the

integrity of the insulation. In the event that wear is found,

replace the probe or consult the factory for further instruc-

tions. This procedure is critical in vessels containing

hazardous media.

To check for malfunctioning sensing probe:

1. Remove the white probe lead form the sensing probe and

isolate it from ground.

2. Connect an ohmmeter between the sensing probe terminal

and ground. (stainless steel probe nut or housing base).

3. Measure the resistance between the probe and the stainless

steel probe nut, or probe electronic housing with an

ohmmeter. (Select the highest resistance scale available).

If the resistance measures infinity, the probe is operating

correctly. If the resistance measures less than infinity, there

may be a problem with the probe. Call the factory for

additional assistance.

4. Inspect a malfunctioning probe for a cut in the insulating

sheath or looseness in the seal at the probe mounting nut.

If neither is apparent, check for heavy conductive buildup

between probe and mounting nut.

NOTE: When performing checks 3 and 4 in conductive media, take

resistance reading when medium is at maximum level.

5. If probe test is working properly, check for insufficient

ground, loose or broken wiring, including white probe

wire. Also check continuity between probe mounting nut

and metal tank — there should be continuity (zero resist-

ance). If there is resistance, check for excessive Teflon tape

used on probe threads.

3.1.2 Electronics

Refer to the following procedure to test the pre-amplifier

P.C. boards, the amplifier and the shielded twisted cable

between the probe and the amplifier.

NOTE: Refer to Figure 14 on page 21 for location of potentiometer.
