MAINTENANCE
Introduction
This
section
of
the
manual
contains
maintenance
informa
tion
for use in preventive maintenance,
corrective
mainten
ance or
troubleshooting
of
the
Type 3B5.
PREVENTIVE
MAINTENANCE
General
Preventive maintenance consists
of
cleaning,
visual
inspec
tion,
lubrication,
etc.
Preventive
maintenance
performed
on
a
regular
basis
may
prevent
instrument
breakdown
and
will
improve
the
reliability
of
this
instrument. The
severity of
the
environment
to
which
the
Type
3B5
is
subjected
will
deter
mine
the
frequency
of maintenance.
A
convenient
time
to
perform
preventive
maintenance
is
preceding
recalibration
of
the
instrument.
Cleaning
The
Type
3B5
should
be cleaned
as
often as
operating
conditions
require.
Accumulation
of
dirt
in
the
instrument
can
cause
overheating
and
component
breakdown.
Dirt
on
components
acts
as
an
insulating
blanket
and
prevents
efficient
heat
dissipation.
It
also
provides
an
electrical
con
duction
path.
The
covers
of
the
indicator
oscilloscope
minimize
the
amount
of dust which
reaches
the
interior
of
the
Type
3B5.
Operation
of
the
system
without
covers
in
place
necessitates
more
frequent cleaning.
When
the
Type
3B5
is
not
in use,
it
should
be
stored
in
a
protected
location
such
as
a
dust-
tight
cabinet.
CAUTION
Avoid
the
use
of
chemical
cleaning
agents
which
might
damage
the
plastics
used
in
this
instrument.
Avoid
chemicals
which
contain
benzene,
toluene,
xylene,
acetone
or
similar solvents.
Exterior.
Loose
dust
accumulated
on
the
front
panel
of
the
Type
3B5
can
be
removed with
a
soft
cloth or
small
paint
brush.
The
paint
brush is
particularly
useful
for
dis
lodging
dirt
on
and
around
the
front-panel
controls.
Dirt
which
remains
can
be
removed
with
a
soft
cloth
dampened
in
a
mild
detergent and water solution. Abrasive
cleaners
should
not
be
used.
Interior.
Dust
in
the
interior
of
the
unit
should
be removed
occasionally
due
to
its
electrical
conductivity
under high-
humidity
conditions.
The
best
way
to
clean
the
interior
is
to
blow
off
the
accumulated
dust
with
dry,
low-velocity
air.
Remove
any
dirt
which
remains
with
a
soft paint
brush
or a
cloth
dampened
with
a
mild
detergent
and
water
solution.
A
cotton-tipped applicator
is
useful
for
cleaning
in
narrow
spaces
or
for cleaning
ceramic terminal
strips
and
circuit
boards.
Lubrication
The
reliability
of potentiometers,
rotary
switches
and
other
moving
parts
can
be
maintained
if
they
are
kept
prop
erly
lubricated.
Use
a
cleaning-type
lubricant
(e.g.,
Tektronix
Part No.
006-0218-00)
on
shaft
bushings
and
switch contacts.
Lubricate
switch
detents
with
a
heavier
grease
(e.g.,
Tektronix
Part
No.
006-0219-00).
Potentiometers
which
are
not
perma
nently
sealed
should
be lubricated
with
a
lubricant
which
will
not
affect
electrical
characteristics
(e.g.,
Tektronix
Part
No.
006-0220-00). Do
not over-lubricate.
A
lubrication
kit
containing
the
necessary
lubricants
and instructions
is
avail
able
from
Tektronix,
Inc.
Order
Tektronix
Part
No.
003-
0342-00.
Visual
Inspection
The
Type
3B5
should
be
inspected
occasionally
for
such
defects
as
broken
connections,
broken
or
damaged
ceramic
strips,
improperly
seated
transistors
or
nuvistors,
damaged
circuit
boards
and
heat-damaged
parts.
The
corrective
procedure
for most visible defects
is
obvious;
however,
particular
care
must
be
taken
if heat-damaged
components
are
found.
Overheating
usually indicates
other
trouble
in
the
instrument;
therefore,
it
is
important
that
the
cause
of
overheating
be
corrected
to prevent
recurrence
of
the
damage.
Transistor and
Nuvistor
Checks
Periodic
checks
of
the
transistors
and
nuvistors in
the
Type
3B5
are not
recommended.
The
best
check
of
transistor
or
nuvistor
performance
is
its
actual
operation
in
the
instrument.
More
details
on
checking
transistor
and
nuvistor
operation
is
given
under
Troubleshooting.
Recalibration
To
assure accurate measurements,
check
the
calibration
of
this
instrument
after
each
500
hours of operation
or every
six
months
if
used
infrequently.
In
addition,
replacement
of
components
may
necessitate
recalibration
of
the
affected
circuits.
Complete
calibration
instructions
are
given
in the
Calibration
section.
The
calibration
procedure
can
also
be
helpful
in
localizing
certain
troubles
in
the
instrument.
In
some
cases,
minor
troubles may
be
revealed
and/or
corrected
by
recalibration.
