All of these common inlet and detector components are represented by the functional diagrams at the end of this section.
Page 9 Electronic Troubleshooting INTRODUCTION This section is intended to aid the operator and service engineer in the troubleshooting process, i.e., of going from symptom to cause. It has been subdivided into four subsections by type of symptom. Part A covers the most obvious indications of problems. The instrument apparently (generally when first turned on) doesn’...
Page 10 PART A NON- FUNCTIONING INSTRUMENT A totally non- functioning or DEAD instrument is one that apparently isn’ t working at all. It has no visual indications (i.e., messages) on its front panel and produces no noise or heat. The most obvious cause for such a problem is that line power is not reaching the instrument or that the instrument is not turned on.
Page 11 Power On Sequence As long as correct Line Voltage is provided to the instrument, the following events should occur when the instrument’ s Line Power Switch is placed in its ON position. Main Transformer (T1) primary winding is energized (fused by F2 on AC Board or F1 & F2 if split phase). (Refer to Section 9 of the IPB portion of this document for main PCB information.) The three secondary windings (3 VAC, 40 VAC, and 120 VAC) of T1 are energized.
Page 12 FAULT: WARN: The FATAL ERR: message is the most serious. This class of message indicates that the HP 5890 SE- RIES II is essentially nonfunctional. The instrument will always go to a NOT READY state and even the keyboard is inoperative.
Page 13 MPC. The FAULT: message indicates that a major subsystem of the HP 5890 SERIES II is not functioning properly. Although the operation of the suspected subsystem is suspended until the problem is cor- rected, the balance of the GC is operational.
Page 14 FAULT: INET RAM indicates that the RAM chip on the Interface Board is not responding properly. Typi- cally, the RAM chip on the Interface Board should be replaced. FAULT: INET ROM indicates that the ROM chip on the Interface Board is not responding properly. Typi- cally, the ROM chip on the Interface Board should be replaced.
Page 15 PART C OPERATOR INSTIGATED INDICATIONS This section discusses the visual information that the operator can instigate and use as part of the trou- bleshooting process. These visual indications are normally not available unless specifically requested by the operator. There are several functions of the CALIB AND TEST (Clear Dot) modes that can be used as a diagnos- tic tool.
Page 16 The Minus key decrements the address. The ENTER key switches the type of value presentation. The binary display mode can be entered from the hexadecimal mode by pressing . If already in the binary mode, it will return to the hexadecimal mode.
Page 17 Check setpoints on both the HP 5890 SERIES II and the integrating/recording device.
Page 18 Volt Ohm Ampmeter. The HP 5890 Series II GC contains a minimum of four and a maximum of nine electronic boards. The four boards always installed are one of the AC Power Boards, the Keyboard and Display Board(usually done as one module), and the Main Board.
Page 19 Connectors 1 thru 15 are used to connect the Main Board either with the other electronic assemblies within the instrument or external devices, such as an integrator.

PCOC EPC/MPC TROUBLESHOOTING The Programmable Cool On Column (PCOC) injection port is designed to allow the injection syringe to admit sample directly into the capillary column(320, 200, 100 micron id). This is accomplished by the use of an insert which serves to align the syringe with the capillary column and make a seal with both the column and the syringe needle.

Page 65: Electronic Flow Sensor (Efs) Calibration
Electronic Flow Sensor (EFS) Calibration Electronic flow sensor (EFS) calibration may be performed any time to ensure displayed flow rate accu- rately represents real gas flow rate through the sensor. The EFS is factory calibrated for four standard gases, H2, He, N2, and Ar/CH4, within the flow rate range of 0 to 100 ml/min. This covers the majority of chromatographic applications.
Page 66: Setting The Gain Calibration Value
2. DISCONNECT the gas source to the particular flow channel being calibrated. DO NOT trust an on/off valve, pressure regulator, or mass flow controller to be an effective shutoff device; ANY gas flowing through the EFS will invalidate the ZERO calibration value. Disconnect the source at any convenient point (e.g., at the connection of the supply line into the instrument).
Page 67: Entering Specific Zero And Gain Values
6. After a short time, GAIN A (or GAIN B) is again displayed, followed by the observed flow rate and a new GAIN calibration value based upon the measured flow rate. NOTE The displayed flow rate value should now be quite close to the measured flow rate value.

Page 237 This section is intended to help the technician isolate problems to a specific valve component or com- ponents. The HP 5890 Series II may be found in many different configurations, with varying component options. This complicates the process of providing detailed troubleshooting procedures for even gener- al problems.
Page 238: Introduction
An installed valve system is an integrated part of the HP 5890 Series II Gas Chromatograph. Proper instrument operation will prolong the life of the valve system. Read all the accompanying information and avoid the following operational abuses: 1) Exceeding the specified temperature and pressure ranges.
Page 239 Stop Stop Also note the rotor type stamped into the valve body. The letter indicates the rotor installed in the particular body. The rotors are interchangeable. Polytetrafluorethylene (Teflon) rotors may be used from 0 to 175 degrees C (This low temperature valve may be marked with P). High Temperature (polyimide) rotors may be used from 100 to 350 degrees C (This high temperature valve may be marked with PT or just T).

Gas Sample Loops A 0.25cc sample loop is included with all valve systems configured for gas sampling.
Page 242: Liquid Sample Valves (Lsvs)
LIQUID SAMPLE VALVES (LSVs) Liquid sampling valves are designed for use with liquefied gases under pressure such as ethane, propane, butane, LNG, etc. They are not intended for nonvolatile liquids (at room conditions) where a concealed leak may allow an accumulation or pool of liquid to form that may present a significant fire hazard. All standard liquid sample valves have 1/16 inch fittings and are classified by the sample size of the installed rotor (0.2mL, 0.5mL, or 1mL capacity).

Page 248 Whenever a liquid sample valve is used, an adjustable restrictor is employed on the sample outlet line to maintain internal sample pressure and thereby keep a compressed gas liquefied. THE LIFE OF AN LSV IS SHORTENED IF NOT USED WITHIN ITS SPECIFIED PRESSURE AND TEMPERATURE RANGES.

Page 250 Often confused with baseline upsets, an offset is a shift in the baseline that does not return quickly to the original level. Baseline offsets may be caused by air leaks but more commonly are due to a change in gas purity or flow rate in the detector. Poor carrier gas or improperly conditioned filters and traps should be suspected whenever offsets occur.

Page 285 The “ HPIL LOOPBACK TEST”may be performed any time to verify that HP 5890A INET communication is performing satisfactorily. Testing involves setting up the HP 5890A to send an INET message directly to itself by connecting its INET output to its INET input. The following procedure is used: 1.
Page 286 The LOOPBACK TEST may be used to check for continuity in an INET cable; an open cable causes test failure. Verify that the cable is at fault (rather than the HP 5890A) by testing a second cable. If an intermittent cable problem is suspected, the test may be re- peated as necessary while flexing the cable (particularly at its plugs).
