Introduction

1.
a. Servicing the MF5 includes fault finding, repair and maintenance and is designed to be
simple and fast thereby reducing the amount of time a detector is unserviceable. Repair and
maintenance is based on Spare Part Kits which can be fitted to a detector without the need for
adjustment or calibration. Additionally, individual parts and Spare Part Kits can be exchanged
between detectors as required.

the purpose of repairing the MF5. Spare Part Kits include the following:
