CARE AND MAINTENANCE
●
Storage:
The Phase Comparator and it's accessories should be
stored in the proprietary carrying case/bag when not in use.
●
Transporting:
When the equipment is in transit it should be
stored in its carrying case/bag. Whilst the equipment has been
designed for field use it should not be subjected to excessive
bumps and shocks.
●
Cleaning:
Dirt can cause surface tracking and it's therefore
necessary to keep the Phase Comparator and its accessories
clean by washing them in mild detergent solution. All parts should
be cleaned with the appropriate liquid.
●
Mechanical Damage:
If surface scratches or dents can easily be
seen by the naked eye, then the equipment should be returned
to the factory or your nearest distributor for repairs since these
blemishes act as traps for dirt and moisture. Mechanical damage
would also necessitate the return of the equipment to the
manufacturer.
●
Recalibration
and Proof Testing:
Every twelve months the
Phase Comparator and its accessories should be re-checked.
This would include checking the threshold level of the neon,
voltage proof testing in factory or accredited laboratory and
pressure testing of the panel meter housing.
Please note that there are no internal user replaceable parts.
The Phase comparator must always be clean and dry before
use and during use. Please store the Phase Comparator in a
dry place.
