Care and Service
The AccuTrak
®
VPE-1000 is constructed of durable, impact resistant ABS,
however it is also a precision electronic test instrument which should be handled
with care and respect. We suggest you follow these simple instructions to insure
many years of reliable performance:
If you find yourself working in damp areas or the instrument is exposed to oils, or
chemical agents that corrode, make sure that you wipe it clean with a soft cloth
and window cleaner. Be very gentle around the front of the instrument so that
the sensor is not damaged. Periodically, use an automotive polish on the case
to bring back its original luster.
Keep both sensor openings free of dirt, oils, moisture, or any other foreign
substances. Use the yellow waveguide to protect the airborne sensor when
using the unit in harsh environments.
When performing touch probe applications, do not use excessive pressure on
the item being tested. Bent probes or cracked sensor housings are considered
abuse, and will not be covered under warranty.
Keep the instrument stored in its protective carrying case when not in use.
Your AccuTrak
®
comes with a high quality, industrial grade 9volt battery.
However, all batteries have the possibility of leaks. Remove the battery if the
unit is not to be used for longer periods of time.
Calibration
Superior Signal instruments are designed in a way to minimize the need for
regular calibrations. They are constructed with components of very tight
tolerances, and do not age rapidly. If there is a need to know for sure that the
instrument is consistent with manufacturer specifications, or if you suspect a
problem, we will perform the calibration at a fixed cost. Call the factory for
current calibration costs.
