Preventative Inspection and
Maintenance
PowerLab systems and ADInstruments front-ends are all maintenance-free
and do not require periodic calibration or adjustment to ensure safe
operation. Internal diagnostic software performs system checks during power
up and will report errors if a significant problem is found. There is no need to
open the instrument for inspection or maintenance, and doing so within the
warranty period will void the warranty.
Your PowerLab system can be periodically checked for basic safety by using
an appropriate safety testing device. Tests such as earth leakage, earth bond,
insulation resistance, subject leakage and auxiliary currents and power cable
integrity can all be performed on the PowerLab system without having to
remove the covers. Follow the instructions for the testing device if performing
such tests.
If the PowerLab system is found not to comply with such testing you should
contact your PowerLab representative to arrange for the equipment to be
checked and serviced. Do not attempt to service the device yourself.
Environment
Electronic components are susceptible to corrosive substances and
atmospheres, and must be kept away from laboratory chemicals.
