Midi 40 CO2 Incubator
•
If all displayed values show "Err" on the display in the main loop,
ensure there are no out-of-range voltages at the ADC input (see Test
Points on the CPU board). Specifically, if the unit utilizes TC CO2
control, ensure the sensor harness to the sensor is connected properly.
If this sensor becomes disconnected the TC input on ADC channels 0
and 1 are ~5.4 to 5.5 VDC and will cause all ADC channels to fail.
Technically, this violates an absolute maximum rating for the LTC2408
ADC of Vcc +0.3 VDC (5.3 VDC). To date, no permanent ADC
failure due to this problem has been identified; however, this situation
should be avoided.
•
If the CO2 display is not stable and for example displaying 4.0%,
5.2%, and then 6.0% and it cycles through this display cycle (or
similar) every display update (16 seconds), ensure the fan is rotating. If
not, check the door switch, AC fan signal, and any obstruction that
may prevent the fan from rotating.
•
If the water RTD display is showing an extremely high value and the
cabinet probe RTD is displaying a normal value, ensure that the water
RTD and the cabinet RTD are not switched.
