SICAM Q100, 7KG95xx, Device Manual
E50417-H1040-C522-A4, Edition 03.2018
11.1
Maintenance
Except for a battery replacement, the SICAM Q100 is maintenance-free.
Wipe the device using a clean, dry and soft cloth if necessary. Do not use solvents.
The battery change is described in chapter 6.1.
11.2
Storage
Store the device in a dry and clean location. Store the device within a temperature range from -40 °C to +70 °C
(-40 °F to +158 °F).
The relative humidity must not lead to condensation or ice formation.
To avoid premature aging of the electrolytic capacitors, store the device within the recommended temperature
range of +10 °C to +35 °C (+50 °F to +95 °F).
Siemens furthermore recommends connecting the device to supply voltage once a year for 1 to 2 days in order
to form the inserted electrolytic capacitors. This procedure should also be carried out before operating the de-
vice.
The Lithium batteries used in Siemens devices are subject to Special Provision 188 of the UN Recommenda-
tions on the Transport of Dangerous Goods Model Regulations and Special Provision A45 of the IATA Danger-
ous Goods Regulation and the ICAO Technical Instructions. This is only valid for the original battery or original
spare batteries.
11.3
Transport
If devices are to be shipped elsewhere, you can reuse the transport packaging. When using different packag-
ing, you must ensure that the transport requirements according to ISO 2248 are adhered to. The storage pack-
ing of the individual devices is not adequate for transport purposes.
NOTE
In this context, pay attention to the commissioning notes in chapter 6.7.
