Use insulated tools if you must work without disconnecting the power
supply.
The electrical outputs of the Sumlog indicating instrument and the
connected cables must be protected against any direct contact or dama-
ge.
Capacitors in the unit can retain their charge, even if the unit is separa-
ted from its power supply.
The cables must have a sufficient insulation resistance or voltage rating,
and touching the contact points should be avoided.
Electrically conductive parts of the connected loads must also be protec-
ted against direct contact by adequate measures. The use of non-insula-
ted wires and contacts is strictly forbidden.
Safety Instructions concerning the maintenance
Repairs to the components of the sumlog system may only be made by
specialists authorized by VDO Kienzle. The system fulfills the applicable
safety regulations.
Capacitors in the unit can retain their charge, even when the unit is se-
parated from its power supply.
The Sumlog sending unit must be cleaned at regular intervals. Dirt pre-
vents or hinders the rotation of the paddle wheel, giving wrong or cau-
sing failure of the readings.
For longer periods of inactivity we recommend the removal of the sen-
ding unit from its hull sleeve.
Close the hull sleeve with the blind plug when removing the
sending unit to guarantee that it remains sealed. The floo-
ding valve integrated in the hull sleeve does not provide per-
manent protection against the entry of water.
