Key tips
- ·Always leak-test under load - a regulator that reads correctly at rest can still leak and fail in real use.
- ·Canister and tubing changes are an infection-control issue as much as a mechanical one.

Troubleshooting Approach
A structured starting point derived from the failure modes above. Follow the manufacturer's service documentation for the actual procedure.
Symptom: Pump / diaphragm wear
- Confirm the presentation - typically low vacuum, slow recovery - and note the exact alarm or message and the conditions when it occurs.
- Check the most likely cause first: diaphragm/motor fatigue.
- Isolate the affected subsystem using the manufacturer's functional check or self-test, where one is provided.
- If the fault is confirmed and not a field adjustment, service or replace the diaphragm pump kit per the manufacturer's service documentation.
- Return the device to service only after the manufacturer's functional and applicable electrical-safety checks pass.
- Record the findings, any parts used, and the verification results in the maintenance history.
Symptom: Canister / float valve fault
- Confirm the presentation - typically leak, loss of vacuum - and note the exact alarm or message and the conditions when it occurs.
- Check the most likely cause first: cracked canister / stuck float.
- Isolate the affected subsystem using the manufacturer's functional check or self-test, where one is provided.
- If the fault is confirmed and not a field adjustment, service or replace the collection canister & float per the manufacturer's service documentation.
- Return the device to service only after the manufacturer's functional and applicable electrical-safety checks pass.
- Record the findings, any parts used, and the verification results in the maintenance history.
