6.0 Maintenance
•
The equipment does not require periodic maintenance. If the equipment becomes dusty or
dirty, clean it by disconnecting the DC power and wiping it down with a soft, slightly damp
cloth.
•
IFA-5 Module calibration should be checked once a year by a qualified electronic
technician, see section 3.9.
•
If equipment is mounted in a cabinet, door should remain closed as often as possible. A lock
should be used if necessary.
•
The ambient temperature of the electronic equipment should be checked in the operating
environment at its highest temperature. The temperature should not exceed 70ºC. Exceeding
this temperature will not damage the electronics but may affect the temperature measurement
accuracy. If the temperature exceeds 80ºC, failure is possible. Use radiation shielding or the
optional purge air to keep the electronics cool.
•
Periodically check equipment for signs of contamination by water, oil, dirt, etc. If necessary,
clean with clean soft damp cloth.
7.0 Warnings
•

specifications, the protections provided by the equipment may be impaired
•
Use of pyrometer without the IFD-5 interface box may degrade measurement quality.
The IFD-5 interface box isolates the pyrometer from electrical noise and provides power
conditioning.
