Barkey Autocontrol XPT
Barkey · Model Autocontrol XPT
Prevention of hypothermia through warmed infusions and transfusions. Designed for any standard I.V. set. Adjustable temperature range between +33°C to +43°C. No additional disposable required. Language selection. Can be applied to the return line of dialysis fluids. Option to connect the warming device autoline 4R XPT to the control unit autocontrol 3 XPT. Autocontrol 3 XPT automatically recognizesthe connected warming device autoline 4R XPT. Displays preset and actual temperature of the warming devices. Use of biocompatible materials. Visual and acoustic alarm in case of error. Safety through three independent temperature sensors. Turnable stand and standard rail fixing. Overtemperature alarm (1°C above set point).
Key tips
- ·Never skip temperature-accuracy verification to save time - it's the one check that directly prevents burns.
- ·Hose/blanket connector wear is the most common real fault and the easiest to miss on a quick visual check.
Typical Failure Modes
Compiled for this model from its own documentation and established engineering knowledge for this equipment class - not from a verified service record. Confirm against the manufacturer's service manual.
Numeric error code on the display
HighSymptoms: The yellow indicator lights and the display shows a numeric error code for the last fault.
Root cause: A specific condition indexed in the manual's error-code list - a heater-control-line / plate fault, a temperature-sensor fault, or a control-unit fault.
Bag / product not reaching target temperature
MediumSymptoms: Plasma / product not thawed / warmed to target in the expected time.
Root cause: Heater plates or the heater-control lines, or a temperature-sensor fault.
Uneven heating / one plate cold
MediumSymptoms: One heater plate not warming, uneven thaw.
Root cause: A failed heater plate or a broken heater-control line.
Over-temperature safety trip
MediumSymptoms: The unit disables heating with an over-temperature condition.
Root cause: Sensor or control fault driving the heater high.

Error Codes
Extracted directly from this unit's own service manual.
10, 12Display is incorrect It is possible that no text is visible on the display. What appears the display may be incorrect. This also applies to the temperatures displayed.
20 to 23Internal device data incorrect
30Checksum for internal device data is incorrect
Replace battery (only by authorised specialist staff). Note: If the battery has run down, all text is displayed in the English language.
31Checksum of the battery-powered backup memory is incorrect
Replace battery (only by authorised specialist staff).
32Checksum of the program memory is incorrect
40Clock is incorrect
41Error when setting clock time
42Error when setting date
43Error when reading clock time
44Error when reading date
45Clock not running
Replace battery (only by authorised specialist staff). Then set the time and date.
50Switch-off relay is faulty In the event of an error, this relay cuts off the power supply to the heaters.
Note: Correct functioning of this relay is tested every time the device is switched on.
51The "watchdog timer" is defective
A monitoring module which monitors the correct operation of the control unit. Note: Correct functioning of this component is tested every time the device is switched on.
60The "watchdog timer" has detected an error
61No power supply for the heaters
Possible cause: F110 fuse faulty
70 to 73Error during temperature measurement
Possible cause: sensor break, sensor short-circuit
74Overtemperature in the control unit
Possible cause: ventilator faulty, ventilation grille clogged
100 to 102Incorrect heater data
103Checksum of the device data is incorrect
104Software overtemperature The measured temperature is more than 1.0°C over the set value temperature for this heater.
105Electronic overtemperature An overtemperature protection facility which is independent of the software and which cuts out the heater if the temperature rises to an excessive value.

Troubleshooting Approach
A starting sequence for this model, compiled from its documentation and engineering knowledge for this equipment class. Follow the manufacturer's service documentation for the actual procedure.
Symptom: Numeric error code
- Read the code from the display (it shows the last fault) and note the serial number (nameplate on the rear, or on the heater-control lines).
- Look the code up in the manual's error-message list.
- Inspect the heater-control-line connections at the control unit and the plates.
- Follow the manual's remedy for that code.
- Functional-check the temperature control after any repair.
Symptom: Product not reaching target / uneven
- Confirm the correct programme for the product.
- Check both heater plates warm evenly.
- Inspect the heater-control lines for damage.
- Verify the plate temperature against an independent reference.
- Replace the failed plate or control line.
