Cause of failure

Solution

Power supply

Check the power supply

 as detailed in Pre-Installation Tests.

Cables

Check the cables

 as detailed in Pre-Installation Tests.

Power Input

If no fault can be found in the power supply or cables, ensure 
the cable length is not too long, causing excessive voltage drop 
between the power supply and magnetometer. Refer to the 
specifications defined in the product brochure.

Magnetometer

In the event of any apparent malfunction, email 

service

bartington.com

 or telephone the Bartington Instruments service 

team on +44 (0)1993 706565. Attempted repair or opening of the 
casing by users may invalidate the warranty.

A re-calibration service is available which is traceable to 
international standards.

8. Care and maintenance

8.1. Cleaning the Mag585 and Mag592

Use water and mild soap to remove grime from external enclosures.

Caution:

 Never use chemicals, such as solvents, when cleaning the Mag585 and Mag592.

Caution:

 Take particular care when cleaning around electrical connections. Bent or 

damaged pins may cause the magnetometer to malfunction. 

8.2. Calibration

Return the Mag585 and Mag592 to Bartington Instruments for calibration at the recommended 
intervals. Refer to the Calibration Certificate for further details.
