Equipment Maintenance  

 

 

The Utility Controller should have semi-annual inspections. 

 

ISIMET

 recommends opening the service panel and turning 

OFF

 the control switch prior to long 

periods of inactivity in the building. 

 

Prior to anticipated activity within the building, 

ISIMET

 recommends that you conduct a brief test 

of the control system by performing Start-Up Test Procedure A and Step 1 of ProcedureB.  

 

If examination of the unit indicates tampering, 

ISIMET

 recommends that you first review the Start-

Up Checklist, then conduct 

ALL

 Start-Up tests. 

 

 

ISIMET

 recommends that the door panel key be kept in a secured location. The door panel key 

should be available only to those needing access to the interior of the unit for the purposes of 
maintenance or service.  

ISIMET 

recommends that the door panel remain locked unless service is 

performed.  

 
If you have any questions regarding the operation and maintenance of the RLA Controller, please 
contact an 

ISIMET

 Service Representative. 

 

The enclosure has a NEMA 1 rating.  It is not intended for use in wet areas. Exercise caution to prevent 
exposure of the interior compartment of the enclosure to moisture. If moisture is present within the 
enclosure, 

ISIMET

 recommends that the control switch be turned 

OFF,

 power be disconnected from 

the unit until the source of the moisture is determined, and all moisture is removed from the 
compartment. 
 
The electronic controller (PLC) is sensitive to moisture, dust, debris and other air-borne particles. Do 
not expose the interior compartment of the enclosure. During the semi-annual inspection, if dust or 
other material is present, 

ISIMET

 recommends that you remove all foreign matter before operating the 

unit. 
 
If the Unit fails to operate, we recommend that you check the power supply to the unit.  With the 
control switch in the 

ON

 position, the PLC “PWR” light should be illuminated if power is on to the 

unit.  If not, check the service breaker. 
 
If the unit still fails to operate, we recommend that you contact your local Service Representative. 

Removing the Door Panel 

 
Before removing the Door Panel, turn power 

OFF

 at the control switch, then disconnect the plug from 

the terminal within the enclosure. 
 
Follow steps 1 – 4 in reverse as shown in Figure 6. 
 

Instructions for Re-coating the Enclosure 

If the finish surface of the enclosure or door panel becomes scratched, follow this procedure to repair 
the surface. 

 

Most standard, good quality paints can be used to re-coat the polyester powder finish.  

 

For best results, correct surface preparation before re-coating is essential.  Follow instructions 
provided by your paint manufacturer. 

 

Wipe surfaces to be painted with either xylene or lacquer thinner solvent. 

 

Allow surface to flash dry prior to painting. 

 

Follow paint manufacturer’s instructions for applying paint. 

 

Allow paint to cure adequately.  Consult the paint manufacturer for proper cure time and hardness.
