6 Maintenance

The TR-2100 is designed for the rigors of an industrial environment; however the unit
requires a minimal amount of regular and preventative maintenance.

Fans

The system uses two cooling fans, one at the rear of the chassis and one at the front, which
include mesh filters that should be checked regularly. The interval will depend on how dirty
the environment is, but every 4 - 6 months is recommended. A build-up of dirt can be simply
washed off the filter. The small fan located on the CPU board should be cleaned or at least
checked, once a year. If the environment is dirty, it should be checked more often.

Batteries

The standard TR-2100 has 2 semiconductor packages that contain lithium batteries. These
batteries have a life of ten years without any external power applied. These are the real time
clock on the processor board which is a Dallas DS1287; and the parameter and profiles
memory on the acquisition board which is a DS1245Y-07 at location U13.

Power Supply Adjustment

The internal power supply voltages should be checked on an annual basis, as aging and
environment could affect critical voltage levels.
We recommend the complete reading and understanding of this procedure. Knowledge and
familiarity with the TR-2100 and Display Station 32 Communication Software will be very
helpful and is recommended. It is also recommended that two persons perform this
procedure.
If you have any questions or encounter problems, please contact the AMETEK Transient
Recorder Technical Support Department at the numbers listed in this manual.
