Yeuch! - Lucky there wasnt anything of value underneath!

actually there was, they are in a school IT suite and I now have nice oily marks all over 3 pcs and the floor / filing cabinet

Bloomin hell Chris - who will pay for that then???

Dunno Dave, I wiped up the mess off the pc's and filing cabinet / files but there is not much i can do about the carpet

The one that failed to fire I currently have here in bits whilst I sort it out.

The pcb has several dry joints on it as it is poorly soldered so with a bit of luck I can repair it and pop it back in.

Who's got an install manual for a series 4000 to hand? as I am unable to locate one.

Don't Smokecloak has some kind of worldwide insurance if a system fails to perform correctly if fitted and maintained properly? Maybe you should have a word with them, especially to see if they can give some advice as to how to get rid of the glycol stain. Was the glycol replaced every year - could it have been contaminated in some way? Maybe the heating element was not hot enough or something? Obviously I have no idea..........just passing time writing comments... .

I was going to say that I deduced the problem from the picture you posted: it is the little yellow sticker on the Smokecloak that caused the problem! Only kidding . So do you work for //.National Installer.//?

Manual sorted, just gonna go have a play to see what the score is.

The fluid is changed regularly to keep it all lovely nice.

As for who I work for, Take a guess

The fluid has to be heated properly doesnt it? - if it isnt, instead of producing nice smoke particles it spits **** all over everything.

Three letters - - -

or was it the other one

LOL @ Colin.

I've fixed it now anyway, 5 bad joints and a iffy IDC connector, soldered up and functioning properly, still drips fluid after firing though.
