5 Maintenance
The Field Metrology Well has been designed with the utmost care. Ease of operation and sim-
plicity of maintenance have been a central theme in the product development. With proper care,
the instrument should require very little maintenance. Avoid operating the instrument in an oily,
wet, dirty, or dusty environment. Operating the instrument in a draft-free environment facili-
tates improved performance of the instrument.
If the outside of the instrument becomes soiled, it may be wiped clean with a damp cloth
●
and mild detergent. Do not use harsh chemicals on the surface which may damage the
paint or plastic.
It is important to keep the well of the calibrator clean and clear of any foreign matter.
●
DO NOT use fluid to clean out the well.
The instrument should be handled with care. Avoid knocking or dropping the calibrator.
●
The removable inserts can become covered with dust and carbon material. If the buildup
●
becomes too thick, it could cause the inserts to become jammed in the wells. Avoid this
build up by periodically buffing the inserts clean.
If an insert should be dropped, examine the insert for deformities before inserting it in
●
the well. If there is any chance of jamming the insert in the well, file or grind off the
protuberance.
DO NOT allow the probe stems to drop into the well or harshly impact the well bottom.
●
This type of action can cause a shock to the sensor.
If a hazardous material is spilled on or inside the instrument, the user is responsible for
●
taking the appropriate decontamination steps as outlined by the national safety council
with respect to the material.
If the mains supply cord becomes damaged, replace it with a cord of the appropriate
●
gauge wire for the current of the instrument. If there are any questions, contact an
Authorized Service Center for more information.
Before using any cleaning or decontamination method, other than those recommended by
●
Fluke's Hart Scientific Division, users should check with an Authorized Service Center
to insure the proposed method will not damage the equipment.
If the instrument is used in a manner not in accordance with the equipment design, the
●
operation of the instrument may be impaired or safety hazards may arise.
The over-temperature cutout should be checked every 6 months to see that it is working
●
properly. In order to check the user selected cutout, follow the controller directions for
setting the cutout. Set the instrument temperature higher than the cutout. Check to see if
the display shows cutout and the temperature is decreasing.
