This alarm was caused by a dirty throttle. We removed the throttle
valve and cleaned it by soaking it DI water. Placed a dummy throttle
valve in placed of the dirty one and pumped down the foreline as soon
as possible in order to minimize exposing the line to air. Performed
a throttle valve calibration after re-installing the clean valve.
