Preventive Maintenance
The “Analyzer Preventive Maintenance Schedule” lists general mainte-
nance to follow, to ensure continued and proper operation of the analyzer.
Preventing leaks in the sample system is critical to proper analyzer
operation. If sample gas migrates into the Reflector Block or Optical
Bench (uncommon) due to a leak in the Measuring Cell, the optics
will become damaged and most likely require replacement. Most leaks
are preventable with regular cleaning and replacement of the Measur-
ing Cell o-rings.
Leak check the analyzer’s sample system whenever it has been dis-
mantled for maintenance.
If the analyzer sets alarms that indicate a faulty component requires
replacement (see “Troubleshooting and Diagnostics” in this chapter),
follow the corresponding replacement procedure in this chapter.
For complex maintenance procedures not discussed in this manual, such
as replacing heaters, RTDs, or electronic boards, contact AMETEK.
Or, review Chapter 7 and then contact AMETEK for assistance with
returning the assembly/analyzer to the factory for repair.
