Maintenance

Maintenance of the UW-7 power meter is straightforward, requiring little more than
keeping it clean. It is important to keep dust and dirt out of the transducer tank.
Rinsing the tank with clean water before use, along with proper storage in the carrying
case, is all that is required. It is also important that the cone and hanger be removed
and stored in the carrying case after use.
Do not use any type of cleaner in the tank or on the transducer cone. The use of a light
detergent and non-abrasive cleaning pad is acceptable on the exterior of the unit.

Service

The mechanical assembly of the UW-7 contains no parts that can be serviced by
the user. The unit should be returned to Bowles Corporation for repair or
calibration. The alignment and adjustment parameters are critical to the
performance of the UW-7 and can be performed only at the factory.
For service, package the UW- 7 according to the Repackaging and Shipping
instructions in this chapter. Failure to do so may void the warranty.
Call Bowles Customer Service at 802-425-3447 for shipping instructions.
6. If the reading is 99.80 or 100.90 grams, the unit is in good working
order. Remove the calibration check weight, but leave the
calibration weight adaptor pedestal on the cone mounting pin. It is
normal for the unit to take 5 seconds to 10 seconds to completely
return to zero.
7. If the unit is outside of these ranges, then the unit should be
returned to the manufacturer for repair and/or calibration.
