Maintenance
If treated and used correctly, the device itself will not require any maintenance. However, the use of
a suitable
sacrificial anode
in the cylinder is recommended, and if the immersion heater is used more
often than usual, it is necessary to check whether the material thickness is reduced (at least 2-3
times per year).
No components relevant to long term accuracy are subject to loading if the device is used correctly.
Consequently long term drift is extremely low. The device therefore does not require any mainte-
nance and cannot be adjusted.
The structural characteristics of the device must not be changed during repairs. Spare parts must
correspond to the original parts and must be used in accordance with the build version.
Disposal
• Devices no longer in use or beyond a state of repair must be disposed of in an en-
vironmentally responsible manner by an authorised collection point. They mus nev-
er be treated as ordinary household waste.
• We can undertake the environmentally responsible disposal of devices sold by the
Technischen Alternative company upon request.
• Packaging material must be disposed of in an environmentally responsible man-
ner.
• Incorrect disposal may result in considerable damage to the environment, as
many of the materials used require professional handling.
