PROBLEM 

CAUSE 

CORRECTIVE ACTION 

Lights do not work

Lamp not installed 
properly. 

Inspect lamp installation. 

 

Lamp wiring disconnected. 

Inspect lamp wiring. 

 

Defective lamp. 

Replace lamp. 

 

Light switch is defective. 

Replace light switch. 

 

Defective electronic 
ballast. 

Replace ballast. 

Airflow monitor 
malfunction. 

No power. 
No lights. 
No display. 

Power cable to circuit board is disconnected and 
needs to be connected.  Sensor cable needs to be 
connected. Power supply is not plugged into 
proper voltage; plug in power supply.  Verify that 
all airflow monitor interface cables are 
connected.  Check fuses on enclosure. 

 

No audible alarm. 

Alarm has been temporarily silenced using 
“SILENCE ALARM” or “enter” buttons. 

 

Wrong alarm set point. 

Airflow monitor was not properly adjusted.  
Repeat calibration steps outlined in this manual in 
Chapter 6 or in the supplied Digital 1000 Monitor 
Manual. 

 

Constant audible alarm. 

Check airflow and calibration of airflow monitor. 
See Chapter 6. 

 

Continuous alarm. 

Check the face velocity of the enclosure as the 
airflow of the system may have changed.  If 
incorrect, adjust the speed control to increase face 
velocity.  The ULPA filter may have become 
loaded. If face velocity is correct, calibrate the 
airflow monitor outlined in this manual in 
Chapter 6. 

 

Monitor alarms; air way to 
airflow monitor sensor is 
blocked by insects, dust or 
debris. 

Lightly clean the airway with clean air.  Be 
careful not to touch sensitive electrical 
components. 

 

Audible disable will not 
stay operational. 

An alarm condition must be continuously present 
before the audible alarm can be silenced.  If flow 
conditions fluctuate near the alarm set point, the 
airflow monitor will automatically reset it.  
Action should be taken to bring the enclosure 
airflow into proper operating parameters or adjust 
the alarm set point lower.
