Maintenance and repairs

This chapter gives instructions on all maintenance work to be performed in order to keep the instru-
ment in good working condition. In addition to this, adjustment jobs the operator can carry out by
himself/herself are explained.

WARNING
All maintenance and repair work requiring the opening or removal of instrument covers may only be
carried out by trained personnel and with the tools provided for this purpose.

WARNING
Electrical hazard:

• Prior to all maintenance work on the instrument switch off the power supply and remove all

sources of flammable vapor.

ATTENTION
Use only genuine consumables and genuine spare parts for maintenance and repair to assure good
system performance and reliability. Any modifications to the spare parts used are only allowed with
the prior written permission of the manufacturer.

7 .1 Housing

Immediate maintenance
The housing is made of plastic. Remove any acid drops immediately from the housing with a moist
cloth.

General maintenance
Check the housing for defects (controls, plugs) and clean it regularly with a moist cloth.

ATTENTION
Never use organic solutions (except for ethanol) as cleaning agents as these might damage the
instrument.

7 .2

Glass parts

Rinse the glass parts regularly with standard cleaning agents (e.g. mild soap solutions).
Afterwards examine them visually for splintered parts or cracks.

ATTENTION
Check the glassware for damages prior to each operation and use only glassware that is in perfect
condition. Glassware with cracks, stars or other damages can break during operation.

7 .3

Hoses and gaskets

Examine hoses and gaskets visually for cracks. If cracks have developed or if the tubes and gaskets
have become brittle, replace them with suitable new ones.
