Service and maintenance
The installed H40 telemetry station requires occasional checking of the cable connection
status of the measuring probe and GSM antenna. Especially when installed in the field,
the cabling is stressed by weather and sunlight. Mechanical damage to the cables by
various rodents often occurs. Suitable cable protectors and a well-designed station in-
stallation can ensure trouble-free operation of the station throughout its lifetime.
