Service Recommendations
Customer Maintenance
There are a few simple services that can be performed by the user to help ensure proper operation:
1.
Keep the area around the Temperature Sensor clean and free of obstructions by wiping with a soft dry
towel. This is a critical area to keep clean, as dirt will affect the ambient temperature reading. The
temperature reading is used to compensate fusion time based on the ambient temperature during a
barcode fusion. If this sensor is reading incorrectly, fusion times may be affected, and the integrity of
the fusion may be compromised.
2.
Make sure the fitting adapters are clean and properly attached to the Output Lead Ends. Failure to do
so may result in an improper output applied to the fitting.
3.
Pull the Output Lead Ends straight off the fitting when disconnecting and avoid side loads.
4.
Make sure
that power sources are appropriately rated and operating at the manufacturer’s specified
capacity.
Refer to page 40 for instructions and guidelines to use when choosing a power source.
5.
Always store the SMART Scanner™ in
its sheath when not in use.
Proper care of the processor and output cable will greatly extend the life of your
Roughneck Electrofusion
Processor
and help reduce service times and costs.
Calibration Recommendations
It is strongly recommended that each processor be calibrated at least once every three (3) years. This will help
ensure that the
Roughneck Electrofusion Processor
is in proper calibration and should enable any potential
problems to be identified early.
When the calibration period has expired the processor will display the message,
“
Error 113: Calibration
Required
,”
informing the operator that the calibration date has passed. This will not prevent the processor
from performing fusions; however, the processor should be calibrated as soon as possible.
THE CORRECT OUTPUT VOLTAGE CANNOT BE ASSURED IF THE PROCESSOR IS NOT CALIBRATED AT LEAST
ONCE EVERY THREE (3) YEARS.
