14.1. 14.1. Performing Routine Maintenance Performing Routine Maintenance
High voltages appear at several points inside the ATevo. Use extreme caution
when working inside the enclosure. Do not attempt to work inside ATevo
unless you are a qualified technician or electrician.
Disconnect and lock out all power from ATevo before starting to remove or
replace any components. Turn OFF ac power at the distribution panel
upstream from the ATevo. Disconnect the battery from the DC Output Circuit
Breaker (CB2+/-). Wait several minutes to allow voltages in dc filter
electrolytic capacitors (C1x/C2) to bleed off.
14.1.1 Keeping ATevo Clean 14.1.1 Keeping ATevo Clean
If it should become necessary to clean this equipment, disconnect ATevo from its power sources
first. Do not use liquid cleaners, aerosols, abrasive pads, scouring powders, or solvents such as
benzene or alcohol. Use a soft cloth, lightly-moistened with a mild detergent solution. Let
surface dry fully before reconnecting power.
At least once a year, vacuum all vented surfaces of the enclosure to ensure an adequate supply
of cooling air. ATevo chargers are cooled by natural convection.
In an extremely dusty environment (especially if airborne dust is conductive), carefully vacuum
out the interior. Clean the surfaces of circuit boards, and clean around electrical terminals.
ATevo is rated for operation up to 122 °F / 50 °C. If the installation is in a warmer environment,
or at an elevation over 3000ft / 914m, contact your sales representative for operating
information.
14.1.2 Checking Power & Signal Connections 14.1.2 Checking Power & Signal Connections
Check the tightness of all field connections inside the ATevo, and connections to the battery. A
loose or corroded connection at the battery terminals can be a fire or explosion hazard, and
may cause erroneous operation of ATevo.
14.1.3 Checking Remote Sense Wiring – optional 14.1.3 Checking Remote Sense Wiring – optional
If you wired ATevo for remote sense, check the signal connections to the battery or load,
making sure insulation is in satisfactory condition. If there is a failure of the remote sense
signal wiring, ATevo will generate an alarm.
