Servomex 4900 — Alarm Decision Trees

Legacy 4900 alarm archive. Match the nameplate, fitted channels and manual generation before applying these notes. These diagrams have not been validated as a current-generation 4900 Multigas service procedure.

Golden rule: Always stabilize sample flow, pressure, and moisture before touching calibration or sensors.

Sample Flow Alarm

Flow below design limit or unstable (pressure hunting).

Sample Flow Alarm Process pressure available? Pressure hunting? Process issue → Inform OPS Check filters / moisture Restore flow; verify alarm status
The former numerical failure-frequency breakdown was unsupported and has been removed. Use configuration-matched diagnostics to establish the cause.

Oxygen Sensor Fault (Paramagnetic)

O₂ signal unstable or outside physical limits.

O₂ Sensor Fault Is sample flow stable? Zero gas truly O₂-free? Check moisture / drains Further diagnostics required
The former numerical failure-frequency breakdown was unsupported and has been removed. Use configuration-matched diagnostics to establish the cause.

Communication Alarm

Analyzer values not updating in DCS.

Communication Alarm Analyzer running locally? Installed interface verified? DCS mapping / quality bit Network / power issue
The former numerical failure-frequency breakdown was unsupported and has been removed. Use configuration-matched diagnostics to establish the cause.

Technical references

Updated against manufacturer documentation. Match the document to the installed model and options.
