Maintenance 

 

32 

To  ensure  that  stored  data  is  not  lost  the  following  procedure  must  be  adhered  to  when 
replacing the batteries: 
 

 

Disconnect all cables 

 

Switch 

OFF

 the instrument. 

 

Replace the batteries within one minute. 

 

Switch 

ON

 the instrument, if 

Clr mem

 message will not be displayed, indicating 

stored data has not been erased. 

 

Warnings! 

 

Do not charge when alkaline batteries are fitted! 

 

Take into account handling, maintenance and recycling requirements as defined 
by related standards and manufacturer of alkaline or rechargeable batteries. 

 

Only use the charger supplied by manufacturer of instrument. 

 
 

4.2  Cleaning 

 
Use  soft  cloth  slightly  moistened  with  soapy  water  or  alcohol,  to  clean  the  surface  of 
Earth Tester and leave the instrument to dry totally before using it.  
 

Notes! 

 

Do not use liquids based on petrol or hydrocarbons! 

 

Do not spill cleaning liquid over the instrument! 

 

 

4.3  Recalibration 

 
The respective measuring task and the stress to which your measuring instrument is 
subjected affect the ageing of the components and may result in deviations from the 
guaranteed accuracy. 
 
If high measuring accuracy is required and the instrument is frequently used in field 
applications, combined with transport stress and great temperature fluctuations, we 
recommend a relatively short calibration interval of 1 year. If your measuring instrument 
is mainly used in the laboratory and indoors without being exposed to any major climatic 
or mechanical stress, a calibration interval of 2-3 years is usually sufficient. 
 

During recalibration

 in an accredited calibration laboratory 

(DIN EN ISO/IEC 17025) the deviations of your instrument in relation to traceable 
standards are measured and documented. The deviations determined in the process 
are used for correction of the readings during subsequent application. 
 

                                            

 

Verification of specifications or adjustment services are not part of the calibration. For products from our factory, 

however, any necessary adjustment is frequently performed and the observance of the relevant specification is 
confirmed.
