    SYSTEM CHECKOUT Recheck all wiring connections against the drawings to ensure proper installation. Energize the LKAT2 System. Confirm that the green status LEDs are illuminated. If accuracy diagnostic LED lights red, skip to “Troubleshooting an Accuracy Diagnostics Fault Indication” in the “Theory of Operation” section of this manual Energize the rectifier to the desired test current.

  • Page 38: System Calibration Overview

    Laboratory Accreditation Bureau "Guidance for Documenting and Implementing ISO/IEC 17025:2005 and Laboratory Guidance." As a guideline, DynAmp recommends a 24-month interval of calibration for all permanently installed products and a 12-month interval of calibration for all products used in portable applications.
  • Page 39: Calibration Adjustments

    Field calibration is possible using a 0.1% accurate current measurement system, such as the DynAmp LKP, LKCO or Opti-Cal as a reference. Due to significantly larger size and mass, it may be difficult to install a comparably rated LKP Measuring Head in on the same bus as the LKAT .
  • Page 40: Field Configuration Of Trip Setpoints

    The trip setpoint is proportional to the current where the trip will occur: “Trip Current” – from Metering Unit nameplate. The easiest method to check or change trip setpoints is to use the DynAmp LKAT MUT system which is specifically designed to simplify this process as well as verify proper operation afterwards.
  • Page 41 LKAT Metering Unit nameplate will no longer be correct. In this case, DynAmp suggests that the nameplate be changed to reflect the new trip setpoint (following reconfiguration). © 2018 DynAmp, LLC...

    Here is a detailed description of the Earth Ground connection path: 1. The input power cable assembly connects CONN4 to the mains power. 2. Refer to the LKAT2 System Wiring Diagram and wire accordingly. 3. The earth ground wire connects from CONN4 to the FLTR1 metal case only. The FLTR1 metal enclosure is not connected to copper foil traces on the Power Supply PC Board Assembly, the steel standoff inserts or the steel PCB mounting bracket.

    PERIODIC MAINTENANCE As is true with any electronic system, proper maintenance will tend to prolong the service life. DynAmp, LLC recommends the following program be performed at the recommended interval to prevent or detect damage to the LKAT System and to ensure reliable performance.
  • Page 44: Spare Parts

    System Measuring Heads require special repair procedures and materials. However, the heads are very reliable and should require little or no repair over its service life. Please refer to the nearest authorized DynAmp, LLC service center for information on repairs.
