14.1 Performing Routine Maintenance

! WARNING
ATevo. Use extreme caution when working inside the enclosure. Do not
attempt to work inside ATevo unless you are a qualified technician or
electrician.
Disconnect and lock out all power from ATevo before removing or
replacing any components. Turn OFF ac power at the distribution panel
upstream from the ATevo. Disconnect the battery from the DC Output
Circuit Breaker (CB2+/-). Wait several minutes to allow voltages in
electrolytic filter capacitors (C1x/C2) to bleed off.

14.1.1 Keeping ATevo Clean

If it should become necessary to clean this equipment, disconnect
ATevo from its power sources first. Do not use liquid cleaners,
aerosols, abrasive pads, scouring powders, or solvents such as
benzene or alcohol. Use a soft cloth, lightly-moistened with a mild
detergent solution. Let surface dry fully before reconnecting power.
At least once a year, vacuum all vented surfaces of the enclosure to
ensure an adequate supply of cooling air. Single-Phase input ATevo
models rated 6-25 Adc are cooled by natural convection.
In an extremely dusty environment (especially if airborne dust is
conductive), carefully vacuum out the interior. Clean the surfaces of
circuit boards, and clean around electrical terminals.
ATevo is rated for operation up to 122 °F / 50 °C. If the installation
is in a warmer environment, or at an elevation over 3000ft / 914m,
contact your sales representative for operating information.

14.1.2 Checking Power and Signal Connections

Check the tightness of all field connections inside the ATevo, and
connections to the battery. A loose or corroded connection at the
battery terminals can be a fire or explosion hazard, and may cause
erroneous operation of ATevo.

14.1.3 Checking Remote Sense Wiring - optional

If you wired ATevo for remote sense, check the signal connections
to the battery or load, making sure insulation is in satisfactory
condition. If there is a failure of the remote sense signal wiring,
ATevo will generate an alarm.
High voltages appear at several points inside the
ATevo
