SECTION 4—TROUBLESHOOTING
SOLUTION
a. Return flow to maximum setting.
b. Replace fitting.
c. Repair or replace. Refer to Replacing
Flowmeter on page 62.
To accommodate for varying tolerances
when replacing components, an adjustable
timer is used to control the shifting of the
Pressure Equalization (P.E.) valve. Refer to
Timing on page 72.
a. Replace P.E. valve.
b. Replace P.E. valve. Refer to Replacing
P.E. Valve on page 41.
Replace P.C. board. Unit may need
retiming after board replacement. Refer to
Replacing P.C. Board on page 57.
a. Check pressure at oxygen outlet.
Adjust regulator.
b. If flow is still unstable, check for leaks
starting at the compressor outlet
fitting through all pneumatic
connections. If no leaks are found
and flow is still fluctuating, replace
the regulator. If pressure at test point
is within spec (5 p.s.i. ± 0.5 max.
[34.4 kPa ± 6.89]), replace
flowmeter. Refer to Replacing
Flowmeter on page 62.
a. If low flow conditions persist, replace
outlet HEPA filter. Refer to Replacing
the Outlet HEPA Filter on page 24.
a. Replace. Refer to Replacing the
Muffler Assembly on page 25.
b. Reconnect or replace tubing.
a. Replace compressor inlet filter. Refer
to Replacing the Compressor Inlet
HEPA Filter on page 25.
a. Replace Compressor. Refer to
Replacing Compressor Assembly on
page 30.
a. Replace with factory OEM sound
reduced style inlet HEPA filter.
