MAINTENANCE
Mandatory, routine or scheduled maintenance should not be required for the SSK
513
Meter electronics or flow tube after
proper installation.
However, some instances may require personnel to perform the following:
•
Flow tube and electrode cleaning
• Fuse
replacement
•
Circuit board replacement
•
Disconnect main power to the unit before attempting any device maintenance or cleaning.
•
Do not clean components inside the amplifier or junction box.
Cleaning the Flow Tube and Electrode
At times flow tube, electrodes, amplifier/junction box housings and the amplifier window may need periodic cleaning,
depending on process fluid properties, fluid flow rate and surrounding environment.
Clean the flow tube and electrodes by following the material handling and cleaning procedures documented in Material
Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) guidelines for the product(s) that were in contact with the flow tube and electrodes.
Should flow tube and/or electrode cleaning become necessary:
1. Disconnect detector from pipeline.
2. Clean electrodes according to MSDS guidelines.
3. Reconnect detector to pipeline.
Replacing the Fuse
Disconnect main power to the unit before attempting any device maintenance. Risk of electrical shock. Replace the fuse only
with 250V AC, 2 amp, slow blow (5 x 20 mm).
Authorized personnel must replace fuses.
Replacing the Circuit Board
Refer to the SSK
513
Interchangeability Procedure Application Brief for information on replacing circuit boards.
