Maintenance

The R&S

ETL does not need a periodic maintenance. What is necessary is essentially

the cleaning of the R&S

ETL. However, it is recommended to check the rated data from

time to time.

The address of our support center and a list of all Rohde

& Schwarz service centers

are provided at

www.customersupport.rohde-schwarz.com

11.1

Recommended Calibration Interval

For information on the recommended calibration interval for the R&S

ETL, refer to the

data sheet.

11.2

Cleaning

Shock hazard

Before cleaning the R&S

ETL, ensure that the R&S

ETL is switched off and disconnec-

ted from all power supplies.

1. Clean the outside of the R&S

ETL using a soft, lint-free dust cloth.

2. Make sure that vents are not obstructed.

Instrument damage caused by cleaning agents

Cleaning agents contain substances that may damage the R&S

ETL, e.g. solvent-con-

taining cleaning agents may damage the front panel labeling or plastic parts.
Never use cleaning agents such as solvents (thinners, acetone, etc), acids, bases, or
other substances.

11.3

Replacing the Fuses

The R&S

ETL is protected by two fuses (IEC

127 - T

3.15

H / 250

V) located on the

rear panel at the right side of the AC power switch.
