5.1 Preventive maintenance

Whether maintenance is needed can be checked with the following tests:
Repeatability test
(refer to section 4.2).
If repeatability deteriorates (more than 1 mm) the drum bearings should be replaced (refer to section
5.3.3).
Balance test
The measuring drum unbalance can be measured by the following procedure:
Item
Name
LT Lock test

Calculate the maximum measuring drum unbalance as: (BU - BV).
The drum unbalance should be within 3 grams. When the drum unbalance is more, check for contamination
of the drum. If the unbalance is still more than 3 grams replace the drum bearings (refer to section 5.3.3).
Displacer weight
The weight of the displacer can be measured with the following procedure:
