the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to
operate the equipment. This equipment has been tested and found to
comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of
the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable
protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated
in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses and can
radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in
accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference
to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential
area is likely to cause harmful interference, in which case the user will be
required to correct the interference at their expense. The following
techniques can be used to reduce interference problems:

1. Disconnect the equipment from its power source to verify that it is or

is not the source of the interference.
2. If the equipment is connected to the same outlet as the device
experiencing interference, connect the equipment to a different
outlet.
3. Move the equipment away from the device receiving the interference.

Maintenance
DANGER
Multiple hazards. Only qualified personnel must conduct the tasks
described in this section of the document.

WARNING
Personal injury hazard. Never remove covers from the instrument. This
is a laser-based instrument and the user risks injury if exposed to the
laser.

Clean the instrument

CAUTION

Fire hazard. Do not use flammable agents to clean the instrument.

16 English
Figure 5 Filter removal Charge the battery
Power the instrument with:

• an internal rechargeable battery

• an external power supply
The instrument operates on a fully charged internal battery for a
minimum of 100 samples before the battery needs to be charged. The
external power supply is also used to charge the internal battery. The
instrument can be used while the internal battery charges.
Items to collect:

• External power supply

• Power cord

1. Connect the power cord to the external power supply.

2. Connect the other end of the power cord to an electrical outlet.
3. Connect the external power supply jack to the instrument at the
power port location (located below the pressure gauge).
4. Listen for a click sound. Make sure that the Battery Charging Status
light (located on the keypad) is turned on. This light shows one of
three charging status modes:

Indicator Status

Steady green Charging

chemicals that are handled. Refer to the current safety data sheets
(MSDS/SDS) for safety protocols.

NOTICE
Excessive force can result in brush and possible cell damage. If the brush does
not go into the cell, pull the brush out and examine the cleaning tip for damage.

Use all precautionary steps to prevent damage to the instrument and

personal injury.
Items to collect:

• Absorbent cloth
• Allen wrench
• Cleaning brush

1. Put an absorbent cloth under the instrument to catch any liquid that
drains from the clean-out port. Refer to Figure 6.
2. Put the brush into the clean-out port until there is resistance.
3. Gently push the brush into the sensor flow cell with a twisting motion.
Calibration
Return the instrument annually for calibration. The calibration date is
shown on the calibration sticker that is located on the serial plate inside
the left side door (behind the waste container). Each instrument is
calibrated at the factory.
