As leaks are a potential safety issue, sensors in the charged aerosol detector monitor the following:

Excess liquid inside the detection flow path

The liquid sensor monitors the detection flow path and detects accumulated solvent. When excess liquid is present, the liquid sensor is triggered.

When the liquid sensor detects excess liquid (flooding) inside the detector, the status indicators change to red and beeping starts to alert you. The Chromeleon software automatically stops the pump flow and issues a message in the Audit Trail. Follow the instructions in this manual to eliminate the excess liquid.

Liquid leaks

The leak sensor inside the device monitors the device for liquid leaks from the flow connections. The liquid is collected in the leak tray and guided to the drain port. From the drain port, the liquid is discharged to waste through the drain system of the Vanquish system.

When the leak sensor detects leakage, the status indicators change to red and beeping starts to alert you. Follow the instructions in this manual to find and eliminate the source for the leakage.
