Cleaning and Sterilization
ADInstruments products may be wiped down with a lint free cloth moistened
with industrial methylated spirit. Refer to the Data Card supplied with
transducers and accessories for specifi c cleaning and sterilizing instructions.
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 soft ware performs system checks during
power up and will report errors if a signifi cant problem is found. Th
ere 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.
