Chapter 7.  Maintenance and Troubleshooting 

The Model 8710 Micromanometer is designed for long-term field use. If used with reasonable care, it 
should be able to make precise measurements over a long time period. Some of the components can be 
cleaned periodically. When cleaning the components, please follow the instructions given below. 

Fabric Hood 

The hoods can be washed with mild detergent and cold water. When washing the hood, keep the hood 
away from objects with sharp corners or sharp edges. Careless cleaning may cause damage. 
 
If the fabric gets ripped it should be replaced or repaired. Duct tape can be placed over the rip on both 
sides of the fabric for temporary repair. 
 
 If you wish to order a new hood fabric, use the following part numbers shown in Table 4.

Micromanometer 

The micromanometer case, display screen and keys can be cleaned using a damp cloth with mild 
detergent solution. Do 

not

 immerse it in water. Wipe the unit dry before use. 

Velocity Matrix Manifold 

If you observe the flow sensing taps of the manifold becoming clogged with dust or other material, clean 
them with a damp cloth. The manifold should be kept in place during cleaning. Do 

not

 apply excessive 

forces on the grid of the manifold. If any part of the grid is damaged, please contact Customer Service for 
repair information.
