    Use, Maintenance, and Care of the Devices Electrostatic Discharge Electrostatic Discharge Protection against ESD (electrostatic discharge) is essential while connecting, inspecting, or cleaning connectors attached to a static-sensitive circuit (such as those found in test sets). Static electricity can build up on your body and can easily damage sensitive internal circuit elements when discharged.

  • Page 17: Visual Inspection

    Use, Maintenance, and Care of the Devices Visual Inspection Visual Inspection Examine the mating surfaces first for obvious defects or damage. If necessary, cleaning should be done every time a connection is made. Metal particles or dirt may fall onto the mating surface during the connection and disconnection process.

    Use, Maintenance, and Care of the Devices Cleaning the Mating Plane Surfaces Cleaning the Mating Plane Surfaces 1. Use Compressed Air or Nitrogen Clean mating surfaces are essential for ensuring the integrity of the waveguide. WARNING Always use protective eyewear when using compressed air or nitrogen.

  • Page 19: Connections

    Use, Maintenance, and Care of the Devices Connections Connections Good connections require a skilled operator. Instrument sensitivity and mechanical tolerances are such that slight errors in operator technique can have a significant effect on measurements and measurement uncertainties. The most common cause of measurement error is bad connections.

  • Page 20: How To Connect: Q-Band

    Use, Maintenance, and Care of the Devices Connections b. Check the flange matings for any gap. A good connection has no gaps between the connected waveguide flanges, and the waveguide walls are flush (there is no step or offset). c. Inspect the washers for symmetrical compression. This ensures that all four screws are equally torqued.
