Maintenance
Use the information in this section to properly maintain the operation
of your A622 AC/DC Current Probe.
Cleaning
To clean the probe body, use a soft cloth dampened in a solution of
mild detergent and water. To clean the core, open the jaw and clean the
exposed core surfaces with a cotton swap dampened with isopropyl
alcohol (isopropanol). Lubricate the jaws mating surfaces with a light
oil.
Do not clean with solvents or abrasives. Do not immerse the probe.
Battery Notes
The A622 current probe uses a single 9 V battery. Refer to
on page 8.
As the battery in the A622 current probe is drained, significant gain
errors can occur. The green LED will continue to light until a low
battery voltage of 6.5 V is reached.
If probe gain errors are detected, replace the battery with a fresh one.
Battery Installation
1.
Remove the probe from the circuit.
2.
Open the battery compartment by loosening the captive screw and
sliding the cover off (see
Figure 5: A622 battery compartment

3.
While observing polarity, attach the battery to the battery
connector.
4.
Replace the cover and lightly tighten the screw to hold the cover in
place.
