Event or Problem Description
|
|
It was reported that when using normal temperature maintenance mode, low flow rate alarms occurred frequently in an arctic sun device.Connected only the confirmation line to the as5000 main unit and confirmed that there was no problem with the flow rate.When a 3s arctic gel pad was connected, it was confirmed that the constant flow rate was 1.0 l/min or less.Touching the tubing connected to the gel pad further reduced the flow rate.It was determined that the issue was caused by the pad.
