The EasyBloodGas analyzer contains a temperaturecontrol system that maintains the sensor moduletemperature at an acceptable range of 37.0 +0.2C. View the sensor temperature at any time byproceeding to the SSEECCOONNDD MMEENNUU and selectingDDIIAAGGNNOOSSTTIICCSS, SSEENNSSOORR SSTTAATTUUSS, thenTTEEMMPPEERRAATTUURREE. If the displayed temperature isoutside the acceptable range, follow the procedurebelow to identify the problem.
1 Touch the outside of the sensor module housing(white material) and confirm that it is slightlywarm to the touch. If it is warm, it is likely thatthe heating system is functioning correctly. If themodule does not feel warm, one part of theheating system (either in the sensor module orthe CPU) is malfunctioning.
2 Remove the rear housing. See Rear HousingRemoval in the Repair section for instructions.
3 Check the sensor module heater cable connectionat CPU position P5. Verify that the cable iscompletely inserted into the connector.
4 If the sensor module temperature remainsabnormal, install a test valve module. Turn poweron and wait 30 minutes.
5 Check the sensor module temperature again. Ifthe temperature is within specification, resumenormal operation (the first sensor module isdefective). If the temperature remains abnormal,it is likely that the CPU heating circuitry is faulty.Install a new CPU assembly. See CPU AssemblyRemoval / Installation in the Repair section forinstructions.
