CAUTION
THE T703 WEIGHS ABOUT 16.1 KG (35.5 POUNDS) WITHOUT OPTIONS INSTALLED.
TO AVOID PERSONAL INJURY, WE RECOMMEND USING TWO PERSONS TO LIFT
AND CARRY THE CALIBRATOR.
NOTE
It is recommended that you store shipping containers/materials for future use if/when the instrument
should be returned to the factory for repair and/or calibration service. See Warranty section in this
manual and shipping procedures on our Website at http://www.teledyne-api.com under Customer
Support > Return Authorization.
1. Inspect the received packages for external shipping damage. If damaged, please advise the shipper
first, then Teledyne API.
2. Included with your calibrator is a printed record of the final performance characterization performed on
your instrument at the factory. This record, titled Final Test and Validation Data Sheet (P/N 05760) is an
important quality assurance and calibration record for this instrument. It should be placed in the quality
records file for this instrument.
3. Carefully remove the top cover of the calibrator and check for internal shipping damage.
Remove the set-screw located in the top, center of the Front panel.
Remove the 2 screws fastening the top cover to the unit (one per side towards the rear).
Slide the cover backwards until it clears the calibrator’s front bezel.
Lift the cover straight up.
CAUTION – Avoid Warranty Invalidation
Printed circuit assemblies (PCAs) are sensitive to electro-static discharges too small to be felt by the
human nervous system. Damage resulting from failure to use ESD protection when working with
electronic assemblies will void the instrument warranty.
See A Primer on Electro-Static Discharge in this manual for more information on preventing ESD damage.
CAUTION – Avoid Damage to the Instrument
Do not operate the instrument without first removing dust plugs from pneumatic ports.
WARNING!
NEVER DISCONNECT ELECTRONIC CIRCUIT BOARDS, WIRING HARNESSES OR
ELECTRONIC SUBASSEMBLIES WHILE THE UNIT IS UNDER POWER.
