Spray Chamber Flooding

Issue

The spray chamber is flooding

Environment

  • iCAP 7000 Series
  • iCAP PRO

Resolution

  1. Replace the drain peristaltic pump tubing and optimize the tension on the tubing
  2. Replace the capillary tubing that connects the spray chamber drain outlet to the drain peristalic pump tubing
  3. Verify that the end of the capillary tubing going from drain peristalic pump tubing to the waste vessel is not submerged in liquid. Also, it is a good idea to trim back a couple of inches of this tubing. If the issue still occurs, replace the piece of capillary tubing going from drain peristalic pump tubing to the waste vessel
