ERROR 2 - O2 Sensor Damaged/Missing
ERROR 2 on startup is caused by oxygen sensor voltage being lower than 0.5mV
Possible causes:
- Depleted oxygen sensor
- Disconnected sensor cable
- Last measured gas with 0% O2 is still inside the measuring path, eg. Argon, Nitrogen or Helium
- Other electronics failure
Step-by-step troubleshooting:
- Check date of manufacture of the oxygen sensor, if is the sensor older than 24 months consider replacing it.
- Check for green oxidation on cables - sign of oxygen sensor leakage, replace both sensor and the cable (#1035).
- If your last measured mixture was strongly hypoxic (close to 0% O2) flush the Analyzer with air, if necesary turn it off and back on.
- Test with known good sensor if available
When to contact service: Return analyzer for service if ERROR 2 persists even with new or known good sensor.
