Unauthorized opening of equipment and improper repairs can result in loss of life or severe personal injury as well as substantial property damage. Do not throw batteries into an open fire and do not solder on batteries (danger of explosion). Only use replacement battery packs supplied by Heraeus Electro-Nite. • • 7.2 Guidelines for Handling (ESD) VLSI chips (MOS technology) are used in practically all Heraeus Electro-Nite electronic modules. These VLSI components are, by their nature, very sensitive to over voltages and thus to electrostatic discharge (ESD). This pictogram and warning label is used on cabinets, subracks, and packing and suggests that modules are susceptible to ESD. Before starting maintenance or installation make sure that you have sufficient protection against ESD. Electronic devices can be destroyed by voltage and energy levels that are far below the level perceptible to human beings. Such voltages can occur when a component or a module is touched by a person who has not been electrostatically discharged. In most cases, the components subjected to such over voltages, cannot be immediately detected as faulty; the fault occurs only after a long period in operation. 7.3 Cleaning notes The instrument can be cleaned with a damp cloth and mild detergent. 7.4 Battery Warning: • • Battery should not be replaced. The only allowed replacement is by the one specified in the ‘ Spare Parts’ list 7.5 Performing a test measurement with a Checkmate A Checkmate instrument is used to check the basic function of Heraeus Electro-Nite instrumentation. The Digilance the burnout is set to negative, and the Checkmate should also be set to negative. When Checkmate Measurements are detected: • Heat Number will be stored as 9999999999 • will be displayed after the Heat Number More information about the configuration of the Checkmate can be found in its user manual. 7.6 Calibrating the system Warning: • • • • ONLY AUTHORISED PERSONNEL MAY CALIBRATE THE SYSTEM. The instrument is calibrated prior to delivery. Calibration should be performed yearly. Before calibration, ensure the instrument is acclimatized.
