REPLACING BATTERIES IN THE LIGHTNING DATA RECEIVER
Replace the alkaline C-cells in the Lightning Data Receiver every 2 to 3 years even if the
Low Battery indication is not showing to prevent battery leakage from damaging the
circuit board. Replace the alkaline C-cells only with the same type and carefully check to
ensure that battery polarity is correct on all cells. Never allow fingers to touch the battery
contacts or the battery holder contacts.
C. FACTORY RECALIBRATION, REFURBISHMENT, AND
UPGRADE
The Sensor suffers degradation from the weather and environment (heat, humidity, salt
spray, etc.) and should be serviced by the factory on a regular basis. Although battery
failure on the Sensor may not occur for over 5 years, 5 years is generally too long to wait
for dealing with other aspects of Sensor wear and reliability, especially for those located
in harsh environments.
NOTE
Because the Lightning Data Receiver is mounted in an office
environment, it generally does not need periodic maintenance as
frequently as the Sensor.
Every 3 to 4 years, the Sensor should be returned to the factory for complete factory
recertification involving recalibration, refurbishment and installation of any upgrades.
Critical measurement and safety equipment such as the Strike Guard Lightning Warning
System must be periodically serviced and certified to ensure proper operation.
Procedures included in the factory recertification of the Sensor are the following:
1. Thorough cleaning of the enclosure, inspection for corrosion damage,
replacement of worn or corroded parts
2. Inspection of the optical diffuser and diffuser seal and replacement of the diffuser
and diffuser seal
3. Inspection of the fiber-optic transmitter and replacement of fiber-optic transmitter
and gasket assembly
4. Replacement of the lithium primary batteries, retesting of all electronic functions,
installation of the latest version of software
5. Replacement of desiccant
Procedures included in the factory recertification of the Lightning Data Receiver
are the following:
1. Cleaning of the enclosure and circuit board
2. Retesting of all electronic functions including relay function and repair of any
malfunctions
3. Installation of the latest upgrades and software version
4. Cleaning of battery holder contacts and replacement of batteries
