Maintenance

•
The instrument has been designed with the utmost care. Ease of oper-
ation and simplicity of maintenance have been a central theme in the
product development. Therefore, with proper care the instrument
should require very little maintenance. Avoid operating the instrument
in an oily, wet, dirty, or dusty environment.
•
Ice will build up on the target surface over a period of time if the unit
is operated at sub-zero temperatures, allowing water to pool in the
well at temperatures above 0.0°C. The user needs to drain the water
build up after every use. To drain the water build up, set the instru-
ment to a temperature above 100°C for a period of one hour causing
the water to evaporate. Wipe any remaining water with a dry
nonabrasive cloth.
•
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 target.
•
It is important to keep the well and target surface of the instrument
clean and clear of any foreign matter.
•
The instrument should be handled with care. Avoid knocking or drop-
ping the instrument.
•
If a hazardous material is split on or inside the equipment, the user is
responsible for taking the appropriate decontamination steps as out-
lined by the national safety council with respect to the material.
•
If the mains supply cord becomes damaged, replace it with a cord with
the appropriate gauge wire for the current of the unit. If there are any
questions, call an Authorized Fluke Hart Scientific Service Center (see
Section 1.3) for more information.
•
Before using any cleaning or decontamination method except those
recommended by Fluke Hart Scientific, users should check with an Au-
thorized Fluke Hart Scientific Service Center (see Section 1.3) to be sure
that the proposed method does not damage the equipment.
•
If the instrument is used in a manner not in accordance with the
equipment design, the operation of the unit may be impaired or safety
hazards may arise.
