Opening the 630ES Igniter Tester
and removal of the Lid
When closed, the 630ES Explosive Safety
Igniter Tester has two large O-rings that
provide a very water resistant and on
occasion even an air tight seal. By
pressing down with your palm as
diagramed above you compress the O-ring
in the lid of the 630ES.. This makes it
easier to flip up the release latch. Repeat the
palm press step on the other corner of the
630ES while flipping up the release latch.
At this point the 630ES lid will normally be
able to be raised, and placed in an open lid
state.
If the 630ES doesn’t open after flipping up
the release latches, a change in atmospheric
pressure since the unit was last closed may
be the culprit.
Turn the Air Pressure
Equalization or “Purge Valve” counter-
clockwise.
Once air-pressure is equalized,
the 630ES can be opened. If the Purge
Valve was opened, return the valve to the
closed state (tighten = clockwise) once the
630ES lid is open. +
The
630ES has a way to remove it’s lid
completely
, for example when used in an
indoor laboratory environment. With the
630ES open, remove the units two hinge
pins (hex type) by twisting them. The lid
should come free at the hinge. Once the lid is
removed replace the hinge pins in the hole they
were pulled out of.

AC/DC Battery Charger - Power
Requirements
The AMPTEC 630ES is powered by an
internal rechargeable heavy-duty nickel-
cadmium battery pack (4 ea D cell - 5.7 AHr).
The battery charge is maintained by an
external AC/DC converter that plugs into a
standard 115VAC receptacle. The AC adapter
provides 9VDC @ 1.1A. The AC Adapter
Battery Charger is configured with a keyed
connector that plugs into the “mating” keyed
connector on the 630ES front panel.
For safety reasons
, the battery charger’s keyed
connector blocks access to the test lead
connections that are also part of the
