This chapter describes basic maintenance procedures you can perform on
the PXI-1031 and PXI-1031DC chassis.
The PXI-1031DC is protected against over-current by a 30 A fuse on the
rear of the chassis, as shown in Figure 1-3,
Chassis. The fuse should only be replaced with a Wickmann 162.6385.530,
Littlefuse 257 030, or equivalent. To remove the fuse, pull straight out
from the chassis.
Clean the chassis fan filter at a maximum interval of six months.
Depending on the amount of use and ambient dust levels in the operating
environment, the filter may require more frequent cleaning.
Clean dust from the chassis exterior (and interior) as needed, based on the
operating environment. Periodic cleaning increases reliability.
The information in this chapter is designed for use by qualified service
personnel. Read the Read Me First: Safety and Radio-Frequency
Interference document included with your kit before attempting any
procedures in this chapter.
