Maintenance 7

Introduction

Introduction

This chapter describes basic maintenance that the instrument user can perform. Do not attempt any maintenance not described in this chapter. For additional maintenance, service, and calibration procedures, qualified service personnel can refer to the Hydra Series II Service Manual (part number 688868).

Cleaning

WWarning

Keep the instrument dry to avoid electrical shock to personnel or damage to the instrument. To prevent damage, never apply solvents to the instrument housing.

For cleaning, wipe the instrument with a cloth that is lightly dampened with water or mild detergent. Do not use aromatic hydrocarbons, chlorinated solvents, or methanol- based fluids.

Line Fuse

The instrument uses a type "T" 125 mA, 250V (Slow blow) line fuse in series with the power supply. To replace this fuse (located on the rear panel), unplug the line cord and remove the fuse holder with the fuse as shown in Figure 7-1. The instrument is shipped with a replacement fuse secured in the fuse holder.
