8 Maintenance and Replacement
The IPC and IPC300 are maintenance-free. However, some components
are subject to wear and must be replaced.
Maintenance schedule
Include the following tasks in your maintenance schedule:
D At least once a year check that all plug-and-socket and terminal
connections of the components are correctly seated and not damaged.
Check that cables are not broken or crushed. Replace damaged parts
immediately.
D Check fan and fan filter mats at least once a year.
Clogged and contaminated filter mats reduce the air volumes required for
proper ventilation and cooling. Therefore, wash dirty filter mats in soapy
water or replace with new mats. Allow washed filter mats to dry thor-
oughly before reinstalling.
DANGER
Risk of injury through rotating fan impeller!
Keep hands and fingers clear, and do not insert any items into the fan
impeller.
D Ensure that the rechargeable batteries (battery pack) are fully functional.
To enesure that the battery pack is tested during each system startup
(and afterwards in 12-hour intervals), enable the Battery Test option of
the UPS control program.
CAUTION
Loss of data!
Back up the data from the hard disk at regular intervals .
D Depending on temperature, vibration and daily operating hours, the ser-
vice life of the hard disk may last anywhere between 2.5 and 10 vears.
To safeguard application data, and to avoid the necessity of time-inten-
sive new installation of operating system (OS) and application programs
following a hard disk replacement, the functional program and OS data
on the hard disk should be backed up at regular intervals with the use of
the Bosch-supplied “Backup Package for Industrial PC”. This process
writes an image of the hard disk to the medium in the Iomega ”Jaz” drive
supplied with the package; if a hard disk replacement is required, this
image must simply be copied back to the newly installed hard disk.
Refer to Section 10.3 for ordering information.
