4.3 Repair<br />

INSTALLATION AND CALIBRATION<br />

Qualified personnel only should carry out repair. If the necessary qualified personnel are not<br />

available, the defective controller or module may be returned to the field service office of<br />

Amtech/Tempress Systems.<br />

It is recommended that spare boards and/or modules are kept in stock so a faulty board can<br />

be quickly replaced. This will give the shortest possible down time. The faulty board can then<br />

be repaired offsite.<br />

Most parts are widely available and should be obtainable from local suppliers. However, it is<br />

important that replacement parts comply with the value, tolerance, rating and dimensions<br />

specifications given in the parts list.<br />

Prior to soldering on any printed circuit board make sure that all power to that board is<br />

disconnected. After soldering, the board should be thoroughly cleaned with particular<br />

attention being given to the removal of fluxes and chemical residues.<br />

Repairs to the Cold Junction board or preamplifiers on the input board should be done with<br />

great care, maintaining the original conditions as close as possible.<br />

After a repair to the analog circuitry, the instrument should be re-calibrated.<br />
