Section 14. Installation and Maintenance

14-7

14.10  Maintenance

The CR10X, CR10WP Wiring Panel and power supplies require a minimum of
routine maintenance.

When not in use, lead-acid batteries should be stored in a cool, dry environment
with the AC charging circuit activated.

Alkaline batteries should not be allowed to drop below 9.6V before replacement.
When not in use, remove the eight cells to eliminate potential corrosion of contact
points and store in a cool dry place.

The CR10X module is sealed and contains desiccant to protect against the effects
of moisture. However, the Wiring Panel and the connections between the Wiring
Panel and the CR10X are still susceptible to moisture. To prevent corrosion at
these points, additional desiccant must be placed inside the enclosure. If alkaline
batteries only are inside the enclosure, the sensor lead entrance may be sealed to
inhibit vapour transfer into the enclosure.

Do not seal the entrance completely if lead-acid batteries
are present, since hydrogen gas generated by the batter-
ies could build up to an explosive concentration.

14.10.1  Replacing the Internal Battery

The CR10X module contains a lithium coin-cell battery that operates the clock
and SRAM when the CR10X is not connected to an external power source. The
CR10X does not draw any power from the lithium battery while it is powered
externally. In a CR10X stored at room temperature, the lithium battery should last
approximately 4 years (less at temperature extremes). Where the CR10X is
powered most or all of the time the lithium cell should last much longer.

When the CR10X is powered up from an external source, it measures the voltage
of the lithium battery daily. This voltage is displayed in the 

∗

B Mode window 8

(see Section 1) and in response to the telecommunications status command (see
Section 5). A new battery will have an output of approximately 3 volts. The
battery should be replaced when the voltage drops below 2.4 volts. If the lithium
cell is removed or allowed to discharge below the safe level, the CR10X will still
operate correctly while powered.

If the datalogger power supply is removed when the lithium
cell voltage is below the safe level, the clock will lose its
current setting and data will be lost.

Replacement lithium batteries can be purchased from Campbell Scientific or from
local electronic/electrical suppliers. Table 14-2 lists the battery specifications.
