Aeros Maintenance and Testing
The Aeros is engineered to be virtually maintenance free. This section outlines the few parts of the
sensor that are to be maintained for the instrument to function properly.
Routine Maintenance
The following schedule outlines recommended maintenance procedures for the Aeros. The actual
frequency of maintenance required will be determined by the measurement application and plant
operating conditions.
Daily (or once per shift)
Check and wipe the sensor viewing window clean with mild cleaning solution and then a dry
soft cloth.
Weekly
Clean the exterior of the sensor and mounting. The Aeros is NOT waterproof, but the exterior of
the case may be wiped with a damp cloth. Standardize the sensor.
Monthly
Clean the standards (slide-on calibrator and sensor window monitor) using a laboratory-grade
detergent and a nylon brush. Wipe dry with a lint-free paper towel containing no FWAs. If a
Hitch Standard has been used, then compare hitch standard values for the Aeros to those of the
off-line colorimeter. Re-hitch the Aeros if necessary or desired.
As Needed
Replace the sensor window. Replace the fuses. Perform the diagnostics.
System Warm-Up
If power to any of the system components has been turned off, it must be restored to all components
before operation can resume. If power to the support unit has been turned off, a 30-minute warm-up
period is required for sensor temperature stabilization. If power to the support unit has been turned
off for more than an hour, a two-hour warm-up period is required.
When restoring power to system components:
•
Restore power to the support unit and computer (if included).
•
Allow at least thirty minutes of warm-up time.
•
Standardize.
•
Select the desired product setup and begin operation.
