Cleaning
External cleaning:
Clean the TP17 / TPM with a dry or slightly damp lint-free cloth. Do not use sharp objects or
aggressive agents for cleaning.
Ensure that your cleaning agent cannot be a source of danger from a reaction with parts of
the machine or the materials inside it.
If you have any questions regarding compatibility, please contact our customer service.
Venting grilles for inlet air:
The grille openings + in the base of the calibrator must be cleaned
at regular intervals.
The cleaning intervals depend very closely on the air pollution at the
installation site and the daily operating duration.
Clean the grille openings by vacuuming or brushing off.
Please keep in mind the following instruction regarding the
temperature fuse.
IMPORTANT! Temperature fuse at over-temperature!
An air flow that is too low can result in the temperature fuse getting triggered. The
calibrator is then rendered operationally disabled, and must be sent to SIKA.
Ensure that the grille openings are always clear.
Measuring insert (Adapter sleeves and calibration inserts):
During operation, small quantities of metal dust get created. It can result in the measuring
insert getting stuck in the calibration block.
Pull the measuring insert out of the calibration block with the help of the sleeve
exchange tool.
Clean the measuring insert and the calibration block at regular intervals.
Before a prolonged shutdown of the calibrator, remove the measuring insert from the
calibration block.
Tank (Micro bath calibrator):
Before cleaning, the tank must be drained as much as possible with the draining pump.
When doing so, follow the corresponding instructions in the safety data sheet of the
calibration liquid used.
Distilled Water:
Remove the sensor cage from the tank.
Remove the magnetic stirrer with the help of the magnetic lifter.
Dry the tank, the sensor cage, the magnetic stirrer and the draining pump thoroughly.
