Corrective actions
The Instrument Configuration software installed with the system (see Section 2.4 Instru-
ment Configuration software, on page27) provides an extensive set of performance tests
for individual modules. The table below gives some guidance concerning corrective ac-
tions when individual module tests fail.
Corrective actionTest failure
Replace the valve membranes (see the ÄKTA pilot 600
Operating Instructions).
Valve tests indicate
leakage
If the problem persists, replace the valve module.
Where appropriate, clean the flow cell in the module.Sensor malfunction
If the problem persists, replace the module.
Power off and restart the instrument before running the
test. This will enable automatic wavelength calibration and
light intensity check for the UV monitor.
UV test failure
If the problem persists, replace the module.
