AUTEC Air series - Additional Maintenance Operations in Environments with Corrosive Agents

9.4 Additional maintenance operations in environments with corrosive
agents
If the Radio Remote Control is used in environments where corrosive agents are present
(by way of example: sea water, salt fog, salt...), apply grease to the electrical connections
to protect them.
Only use electrically non-conductive, polyalphaole󰄈n and silicate-based
grease for electrical contacts.
Do not use polyether-, polyoilester- and polyphenyl ether-based grease.
Macon Research's Electric Grease CN 4070 can be used.
Check and replace grease as frequently as shown in the following table:
Type of connection Grease check frequency Re-greasing frequency
BNC connector for antenna every 4-6 months If dirt and impurities are found
Receiving Unit's plug every 4-6 months If dirt and impurities are found
Connectors for Transmitting
Unit's and Receiving Unit's
cable control

1 month
If dirt and impurities are found,
and once a year anyway
Contacts of Transmitting Unit,
Battery Charger and battery
weekly
If dirt and impurities are found,
and once every three months
anyway
Key ID 0-1 weekly
If dirt and impurities are found,
and once every three months
anyway
e. It is recommended to disconnect the cable control cable and to store it in a protected place when
it is not in use.
When carrying out this kind of maintenance operations, follow these recommendations:
- make sure that the surface of electrical connections is covered with a layer of grease
and add it if necessary,
- contact the support service of the Machine's Manufacturer if evident oxidation is detected.
