MicroDock II Automatic Test and Calibration Station

Introduction

WArNINg

To ensure personal safety, read the Safety Information before using the

MicroDock II Base Station.

The MicroDock II Automatic Test and Calibration Station (“the station”) provides
automated calibration, bump testing and data transfer for the XD and X5
detectors.

A maximum of ten modules can be connected to the station.

NOTe

There is a maximum of six charging modules.

Six charging modules plus four non-charging modules can be connected to the
station.

Safety Information - Read First

Use the station only as specified in this manual. International symbols used on the
station and in this manual are explained in Table 1.

Read the Caution statements on the following pages before using the station.

NOTe

This instrument contains batteries. Do not mix with the solid waste stream.

Spent batteries should be disposed of by a qualified recycler or hazardous

materials handler.

CAUTION

MicroDock ll Base Station

If the station is damaged or parts are missing, contact Honeywell Analytics

immediately.

The station must be used only in an area that is free of background gas. Do

not use the station in a hazardous area. Failure to adhere to this caution
can lead to fire and/or explosion.

This equipment uses potentially harmful gas for calibrations. The station must

be attached to a venting system or be used in a well-ventilated area.

Perform calibrations and bump checks only in a clean atmosphere that is

free of background gas.

The maximum recommended exhaust line length is 50 ft. (15.24 m).

Ensure that the inlet filter is clean.

Ensure that all gas cylinders contain enough gas.

Ensure the exhaust line is not connected to a negative pressure system.

A demand flow regulator must be used with all gas cylinder connections.

Do not expose the station to electrical shock or severe continuous

mechanical shock.

The station warranty will be void if the unit is disassembled, adjusted, or

serviced by non-Honeywell Analytics personnel.

Do not immerse the station in liquids.
