TARGAS-1 Operation Manual V. 1.02

Maintenance
The TARGAS-1 requires minimal maintenance. There should be no need to open the enclosure to access
internal components (e.g., battery, pump, IRGA, etc.). The two most common items requiring periodic
inspection and maintenance include:
•
External air filter
•
Absorber columns and desiccants
Both of the above items are external to the TARGAS-1 and easy to service and maintain.
External Air Filter
An external air filter should be used at all times and fitted in-line with the
AIR IN
port on the TARGAS-1 to
protect internal components from dirt and dust (see below). PP Systems includes one air filter (STD558)
with every system as standard and it should not require replacement unless it is broken or missing. You
can purchase replacement filters (STD556) for use with the main assembly if required.
When changing out filters you should put a slight smear of silicone grease on the “O” ring which provides
a good seal on the filter.
