“V104/108 Stuck Closed” OR V104 Er C =1 indicates a possible restriction in the Bicarb inlet system, as
sensed by Pressure Sensor #110 (Bic Press)
A) ENSURE the Bicarb inlet tubing is NOT restricted!
B) Figure right, ENSURE the Bicarb connector’s filter is
clean AND the adaptor plug opening is not plugged!
NOTE! If external leaks, “No Water”, or a Flow Error EVER occur address them FIRST!
C) TWO (2) possible scenarios 1) or 2) below:
1) IF occurring during OR after a Cleaning / Disinfection Program (Rinse, Heat Disinfect, etc.)
has stopped: See procedure number V104SC- 1.0.0 (page 730).
2) IF occurring in Dialysis Program: Perform parts a THROUGH c below:
a) If attached to a Bicarb jug ENSURE the Pick Up wand tubing (Figure right)
is NOT kinked!
b) If attached to a Central Bicarb Delivery System (SDS) ENSURE good flow from
the station valve! The valve MUST be left open!
c) Call debug screen 15. Watch V104 Er C (bottom row. 3

once?
Yes V104 Er C = 1, even just once! Proceed to

EVER = 1 a masked Flow Error is occurring! In this event, DO NOT continue to
troubleshoot “V104/108 Stuck Closed”.
b) If pulling from a Bicarb jug or a Central Bicarb Delivery System (SDS) AND
[Conductivity] increases to more than 13.0 mS Valve #104 is, at least, partially
open!
c) Install a venous dummy chamber in the Level Detector module and attempt to reset
all alarms. Does “V104/108 Stuck Closed” appear?
