Heating mantle

What does the fault code a-ha mean on mantle controller?

Which heating mantle are you talking about? ?

Bvv 20 L with pid…new one

So it’s not heating or spinning at all? You didn’t receive a manual?

Not heating…Manual has two pages

I’m assuming you have either the plug or the thermo prob connected at the back of the mantle?

Its also has a blank space in back where the fuse guess should be…

Take a pic, please. And do you have the plug or the thermo probe connected? The fuse should have a black cap screwed on.

its laughing at you

No lol it’s probably a upside down plug lol

Ya…I’ve had it running…then it stopped heating…no fuse in back…electrician looked at set up and said he didn’t know

Is the boiling flask hot? What temp did it cut out at?

Ok, it won’t work with out a fuse. You should have gotten a spare.

Now, please answer if you used the black plug (so the mantle heats using the internal pid) or the thermo probe (so it uses the probe to heat)

And can you take a pic from the back?

Did you follow the instructions in the manual about burning the mantle in?

There is no fuse…no fuse receptacle…an empty hole next to plug

Well that’s an issue.

The fuse is on the left of the mantle if the back is turned towards you.

What is plugged into the 3 prong hole on the right side?

Thermo coupler in back…power cord in back…and an empty hole…

That empty hole should have a fuse and a black cap holding the fuse in.

godamn it…

Hit bvv up and tell them. They should sort you out.

While I lose money…will do

I’m sorry to hear that. I had 3 mantles break on me leaving me unable to work while we tried fixing it. We had to buy a new one in the end. You should hopefully just need to get the black cap, cause all mine have had extra fuses in the bag. If you don’t bvv should just send you one or two along with the cap.
