Maintenance and repair
6.1
Repair
If the Barcon must be sent to Fuchs for repair, then a note should be enclosed
containing the following information:
•
An exact description of the application
•
The chemical and physical characteristics of the product.
•
A brief description of the error.
Before sending in the Barcon to Fuchs for repair, please take the following
protective measures:
•
Remove all traces of the product. This is particularly important if the
product is dangerous to health, e. g. corrosive, poisonous, carcinogenic,
radioactive, etc.
•
We do request that no instrument should be returned to us without all
dangerous material being completely removed as it can, e. g. penetrate
into fissures or diffuse through plastic.
Caution!
Instruments with certificates of conformity or design approval must be sent in for repair
as complete units only.
6.2
Replacement parts
In the chapter 2.1 shows all replacement parts which can be ordered from
Fuchs.
When ordering replacement parts, please note the following:
•
If parts given in the order code are to be replaced, then ensure that the
order code (instrument designation) on the nameplate is still applicable.
•
If the instrument designation on the nameplate has changed then a
modified nameplate must also be ordered. The information about the new
instrument must then be entered on the modified nameplate. This must
then be attached to the housing of the Barcon.
•
If a new sensor is ordered as a spare part, it is usually supplied as the
complete mounted device with housing and process connection, but
without the electronic insert.
•
Only the process connection on the PPC-M20 can be exchanged by the
customer. For all other versions, the process connection ordered is
supplied with the complete housing, but without the electronic insert.
•
It is not possible to convert a standard instrument into an Ex instrument by
replacing its parts. The appropriate regulations are to be observed when
certified instruments are to be repaired.
Caution!
