ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Brief fault finding notes and a list of replacement parts are given in this section.
Note: that this equipment should only be dismantled by properly trained personnel. Removing the
outer cover exposes potentially lethal mains voltages. There are no user serviceable parts within this
equipment.
FAULT FINDING
Should you have any problems with your TC-5000 which cannot be easily remedied, you should contact
your supplier and return the unit if necessary. Please include details of the fault observed and remember
to return the unit in its original packing. Bibby Scientific Ltd accept no responsibility for damage to units
which are not properly packed for shipping: if in doubt, contact your supplier, giving the full serial
number of the unit and software version number (shown when the unit is first switched on).
FUSES
If neither the power light nor display on the front panel is lit, one of the two fuses may have blown.
Check that there is no external cause, such as a faulty plug or lead. Check both fuses and replace the
faulty fuse with a new one of the correct value (fuse values are given on the label next to the power
inlet). Note that fuses should only be replaced by a qualified electrician.
The holder for the two fuses is built into the mains input socket. First remove the power cable and then
gently prise the fuse drawer open with a flat-bladed screwdriver or similar tool.
Each fuse can be removed by using the screwdriver as a lever.
Exchange the faulty fuse in the fuse holder for a working fuse of the correct value. Finally, replace the
fuse drawer in the fuse compartment and push the drawer shut.
Fuses which blow repeatedly indicate a serious fault and you should return the unit to your supplier for
repair.
