Maintenance
No.
Question
Answer
1
How long do the halogen
lamps last?
About 5,000 hours. If you use a halogen lamp for 8 hours a
day, its lifetime is about 2 years.
2
Can users exchange the
halogen lamp?
Yes, it can be replaced with A&D’s optional accessory
AX-MX-34 for the MS/MX/MF/ML. Read the instruction manual
before replacing the lamp.
B. Cleaning
1
If the glass housing below the
halogen lamp gets dirty, will
the measurement of the
moisture content rate be
affected?
Yes, it may. Heat conduction may worsen, making it difficult to
heat the sample evenly. This in turn may lengthen
measurement time and lead to low repeatability.
The MS/MX/MF/ML is easy to clean. If glass gets stained,
perform the following procedure as soon as possible.
1. Wait for the unit to cool down to room temperature.
2. Remove the 2 screws and detach the SRA unit.
3. Clean with a water-based or neutral detergent. Do not use
organic solvents or chemical wipes.
(For details on how to remove the glass, refer to “How to
change halogen lamps” in the Maintenance section of the
instruction manual.)
