6.0 EGOLD-1000 Maintenance
The EGOLD-1000 Electronic Grease Level Detector system maintenance requirements are as
follows:
The Control Unit should be unpowered (power module removed from the wall socket) during
maintenance operations.
The Control Unit requires no periodic maintenance.
Note: The Control Unit is water resistant. Therefore the Control unit face may be cleaned
with
a damp cloth as required.
The Tank Probe Assembly requires that the tank probe protruding into the tank be cleaned of
grease or debris that may be stuck to the tank probe periodically. JOSAM recommends the
tank probe be cleaned every time the grease is emptied from the interceptor tank. As a
minimum, the tank probe should be cleaned every 6 months.
Tank probe cleaning can be accomplished by wiping the probe with a soft cloth or sponge. A
degreaser (i.e. dish washing soap, etc.) may also be used. The housing of the Tank Probe
Assembly is water resistant and may be cleaned with a damp cloth as required.
Note: Do not use an abrasive material (i.e. scouring pad, steel wool, etc.) to clean the
tank probe as this may damage the tank probe protective covering. Do not bend the
tank probe during cleaning.
Recalibration of the system is not typically required after the Tank Probe Assembly has been
cleaned. JOSAM recommends that system calibration be performed once a year.
NOTE:
TO MAINTAIN SYSTEM PERFORMANCE AND ACCURACY IT IS NECESSARY TO
REMOVE SOLIDS ACCUMULATION IN THE TANK ON A REGULAR BASIS.
SOLIDS BUILD UP OF GREATER THAN 4 INCHES IN THE TANK WILL ADVERSELY
AFFECT THE PERFORMANCE OF THE SYSTEM.
