J. CLEANING THE MODULE

To clean the outside surface, use a damp 
cloth or sponge. Do not use solvents or 
abrasive cleaners, and do not open the 
enclosure while it is wet (it is an electrical 
device).

L. FUSE REPLACEMENT

The fuse on the power supply board (item 7 
on the internal layout drawing) is a 1600-mA, 
250-V. Use no other type of fuse or the MZA 
could be damaged or fail to perform properly. 
A spare fuse is provided and positioned on 
the mother board item 4.

K. STORAGE AND HANDLING 
OF SENSING CABLE

M. NOTE ON CABLE
CLEANING

Despite their rugged construction, TraceTek 
sensing cables must be handled in a 
manner appropriate for a sensing device 
or they may be damaged and require 
replacement. Therefore, you should follow 
some basic rules for storing and handling all 
TraceTek sensing cables:

• Store spare cable in its original container 

in a clean, dry place until ready for 
installation.

• Schedule cable and probe/sensor 

installation after all mechanical, plumbing, 
and electrical work has been completed.

• Clean the area where the cable is to be 

installed, and remove any obvious debris 
or other sources of contamination.

• Do not solder or weld near the cable 

without providing protection from heat, 

solder flux, or weld splatter.

• 

Do not drop tools or floor tiles on the 

cable; sharp and heavy objects may 
damage the cable.

• Avoid walking or stepping on the cable. 

Provide shielding (for example, a half 
shell of plastic pipe) where additional 
protection is necessary.

• Do not use tape to secure sensing cable 

(some tapes and adhesives absorb 
moisture) or use solvents that could 
eventually cause an alarm.

• Do not drag sensing cable through 

contaminants (such as pipe dope, PVC 
cement, solvents, oil, or dirt).

TraceTek TT1000 and TT3000 use a solid 
core polymer construction and can usually 
be easily cleaned with tap water. In extreme 
cases or when large amounts of cable are 
contaminated, either cable can be washed 
in an ordinary dishwasher. Try a water only 

(no detergent) cycle first and avoid the 

heated dry cycle. When placing the cable in 
the dishwasher be sure to tightly connect 
the male connector on one end to the 
female connector on the other. Keep water 
out of the connectors.

TT5000 and TT5001 cannot be cleaned 
without special equipment. These cables 
normally require replacement after 
exposure to fuel or solvent.

N. PERIODIC MAINTENANCE
 AND TESTING

Recommended Interval:

 Perform a 

functional check per the following procedure 
at 6-month intervals. Repair or replace all 
damaged wiring and senor cables. There are 

no field repair procedures for the MZA panel. 

If the module fails to perform the functional 
tests it must be replaced
