"CPU testt" blinks on the display
approximately every 2 seconds.
Piezo valve does not activate.
Water in the pneumatic block (due
to wet compressed air)
At an early stage, this fault can be
rectified with a subsequent
operating using dry air, if required,
in a temperature cabinet at 50 to
70°C.
Otherwise: Repair
In the manual and automatic
modes, the actuator cannot be
moved or can be moved only in one
direction.

rectify the deadlock.
Dirt (swarf, particles) in the
pneumatic block
Repair or a new device; clean
and/or replace the built-in fine
screens.
Deposits on the contacts between
the electronic printed circuit board
and the pneumatic block may
develop due to abrasion owing to
continuous loads resulting from
strong vibrations.
Clean all contact surfaces with
spirit; if required, bend the
pneumatic block contact springs.
