Maintenance, Storage and Customer Service

Maintenance

The maintenance of the unit is confined to cleaning the interior and exterior of the unit.

Unit calibration

The calibration interval depends on the use and demand, and should be made every 1 and 2 years. The calibration can be carried out by the KATHREIN cus- tomer service centre (see below).

Exterior cleaning

The exterior of the unit is cleaned when needed with a soft, not fibrous dusting rag or brush. For very dirty areas, a spirit or mild soap agent can be used. Never use solutions such as nitro-thinner, acetone etc, because these could damage the writ- ing on the front panel or the plastic parts.

Interior cleaning

The unit should be regularly dusted in the exterior every 1 to 2 years to ensure adequate ventilation. The cleaning interval depends on the amount of dust of the operating space. The housing cover is removed for cleaning the interior of the unit. The dust can be removed with the brush or with compressed air.

Function testing

It is recommended to check the given required data in the measured time intervals. The data and its tolerances are taken from the data sheet.

Required means of measurement:

-TV / Sat test signal generator e.g. Grundig VTG 700

-DVB test signal generator e.g. Rohde & Schwarz SFQ

Exchange of components

The modular construction principle of the MSK 33 allows an exchange of compo- nents by the user. Contact our service centre before each component exchange.

Storage

The storage temperature range of the unit is: -40...+70°C.

When the unit is stored for a longer period of time, it should be protected from dust.
