Try igniting the flame a second
or third time.
Carefully inspect the burner
system for possible causes,
referring to the ones listed
below. Reignite the flame only
after the problem has been
corrected. Contact a
PerkinElmer service
representative for assistance.
Check the connections at the
burner and at the gas supplies.
Check the condition of all
o-rings (burner head, end cap,
o-ring on nebulizer front end
cap). Replace o-rings that show
signs of wear (cracking,
swelling). Inspect the inner
surface of the burner chamber
for pitting and replace if
necessary. Check drain
connections for leaks.
