Instrument maintenance
5.2.1
Performing checks
•
Makes sure the available line voltage matches the required operating voltage.
•
Check the power cable and plug for defects.
•
If any damage is visible, switch off the instrument. Only have the instrument repaired by qualified
technicians.
•
Check the reading of the operating hour meter of the power supply to ensure that the maximum
operation time of the mercury vapor short-arc lamp has not been exceeded.
5.2.2
Changing fuses on the manual
stand
Always disconnect the power plug
before changing the fuses.
If any fuses fail, the cause of the failure must first
be determined. Any technical defect should be
repaired by trained personnel.
On the manual Axio Imager model, the fuse
compartment is on the back of the microscope and
contains two
T 5.0 A/H / 250 V, 5x20 mm
fuses.
•
Disconnect the power plug.
•
Pull out fuse holder (Fig. 213/
2
) forward. Use a
small screwdriver, if necessary.
•
Remove the fuses from the holder and insert
new fuses.
•
Push the fuse holder back into the fuse
compartment (Fig. 213/
1
) as far as it will go.
•
Connect the power plug.
The motorized Axio Imager model is powered by
the VP232-2 power supply. (For fuse changes, see
Section 5.2.3).
