Leak Sensor; Wellness - Thermo Scientific Dionex UltiMate 3000 Series Operating Instructions Manual

UltiMate 3000 Series:
SRD-3x00 Solvent Racks

2.6 Leak Sensor

A leak sensor is installed inside the SRD. If liquid collects in the drip tray under the fluid
connections, the leak sensor reports a leak, and the Status LED on the front panel door
changes to red.
If the SRD is operated from a pump of the UltiMate 3000 system and if the leak sensor is
exposed to liquid for at least 30 seconds, a message (Solvent Rack leak detected) appears on
the front panel display of the pump and a beep sounds. If the pump is operated from
Chromeleon, a message is also displayed in the Chromeleon Audit Trail.
When the leak sensor reports a leak, eliminate the cause for the leakage and dry the leak
sensor (→ page 47).

2.7 Wellness

System Wellness monitors the health of the SRD. Therefore, the SRD supports several
performance and reliability features that can help you detect small problems before they
turn into big ones:
• Leak detection–Status LED on the front panel door
• Degasser vacuum level monitoring–Status and Vacuum LEDs on the front panel door
When an error is detected, the Status LED or the Status and Vacuum LEDs on the front
panel door change to red. If the SRD is operated from the pump of the UltiMate 3000 system,
one or more messages appear on the pump display and in the Chromeleon Audit Trail
(→ page 39).
