Good day all,
I have an 8.3 machine that gives me a temp not reached during heat disinfect the temp goes up to 95 but then drops pretty quick.
tried to do a temp calibration and now i cant get the temp to come up at all.

<ksilcox11> Check F5/F6 fuses in the SMPS. Check the heater rod resistance. R=E2/V (assuming USA) = 14,400/1800 = 8 ohms. If you read an open, you may have blown the internal safety thermal fuse. That would mean you will have to replace the heater rod. NOTE: Never apply power without water flowing thru the heater rod canister.

I have already checked the fuses and the heater thanks for the suggestion though its something to do with the flows because when I go to start the calibration the pumps will start but stop almost as fast as they start.

<btech> Sorry, you are incorrect. This is a Version 8 machine, Dialog+. Even though it is a Dialog+, the Version 8 software means it has a single element heater rod of 1800 W. Only Dialog+ V-9.xx machines have a dual rod (900 W each) for the heater unit

Found the problem the inlet water valve wasn't opening causing the pumps to shut down replaced the valve and everything calibrated as usual. thanks for the suggestions guys sorry about the late response also I'm only in this clinic once a month.

A "Water Supply Disturbed" alarm wasn't any kind of indication to you? |

Yes you are right forgot that its a version 8. <btech> Sorry, you are incorrect. This is a Version 8 machine, Dialog+.
