2105 Interface Module Section 4 Maintenance 4.1 Overview The 2105 is designed to perform reliably in adverse conditions with a minimal amount of routine service requirements. To keep your system working properly, you should check the desiccant and channel conditions at regular intervals.
The desiccant is contained in a cartridge located on the side of Desiccant the 2105. To remove the cartridge, unscrew the collar and slide the cartridge out of the 2105. The clear tube reveals the silica gel desiccant inside. To replace the silica gel desiccant: Collar 1.
Section 4 Maintenance 4.3 Hydrophobic Filter If the 2105 is in a humid location or submerged, a hydrophobic filter prevents water from entering the desiccant cartridge. Any amount of water will plug the filter and it must be rinsed with clean water and allowed to dry, or replaced to prevent internal damage to the module.
Replacement parts are called out in illustrations in this section. Reference the call-outs in the accompanying tables to determine Diagrams and Listings the part number for the item.
