AMETEK CTS

6 MAINTENANCE

6.1 Cleaning

The housing can be cleaned with a moist cloth with possibly just a trace of detergent liquid. Industrial spirit is also a suitable
cleaning agent. Other solvents are not permitted.
Fuses
The instrument contains no fuses that are accessible to the user.

6.2 Calibration

Trimming procedures in the ESD simulator are carried out digitally and automatically. The instrument contains no elements
that are foreseen for adjustment by the user. Calibration must be performed regularly based on local policy. AMETEK CTS
recommends annual calibration, for which AMETEK has accredited laboratories in many countries worldwide. A component
defect must be suspected if the calibration measurements differ from the published technical data and the instrument is to be
returned to an authorized EM Test/AMETEK service center.

6.3 Exchanging the R/C network

CAUTION: If a network needs to be exchanged, the test has to be stopped first, followed by a waiting time
of at least 5 s to ensure the voltage being internally discharged.
CAUTION
Switch the simulator off.
NSG 437/438, esd NX30: Open the flap under the display and rotate the pistol backwards until the network drops out under
its own weight.
Dito: The R/C network can be simply pulled forward from the main unit and exchanged with another R/C network.
NSG 435: Some disassembly is necessary. Networks may only be changed by trained operators under direction of Support
or Service staff.

6.4 Repairs

Repair work is to be carried out exclusively by an authorized AMETEK CTS repair department.
WARNING: Voltages in excess of 30 kV are generated within the instrument. Do not open the cover.
WARNING
Only original replacement parts and accessories are to be used.
Do not continue to use the instrument in the event of mechanical damage occurring. The plastic housing also performs insu-
lating and protective functions, which are only assured as long as it is in its original condition. A damaged instrument should
be returned without delay to a EM Test service center.

6.5 Disposal

For the disposal of electronic devices, the country-specific regulations are to be considered. The equipment
should be delivered to a specialized waste collection center.
EM TEST and Tees' devices can be returned to AMETEK CTS in Switzerland or to their agency for adequate
disposal. Alternatively, the equipment can be handed over to a specialized enterprise for disposal of electron-
ic devices.
