Warning:  Do not work on the system unless the  power is switched off or 
isolated. 
 
Caution:  Ensure that anti-static handling procedures are observed applied 
when working on the system, i.e. Anti- Static Wrist Straps 
Warning:   The Guarantee label around the Detector Head is fitted to ensure 
that the Detector head is not tampered with. Any attempt to remove 
or disassemble the head will void the warrantee and may affect the 
detector  calibration  settings  requiring  the  Detector  Head  to  be 
replaced. 
Prior to conducting maintenance on the OMD system it is recommended to isolate the Pre-Alarm and 
Slowdown/Shutdown Relays and the detectors being maintained. In addition, if the detector head is to 
be removed from the base the detector cable should be detached from the detector. 
Isolating the relays will ensure that an alarm condition, which may occur during maintenance, is not 
transmitted to the AMS. 
Isolating the detector will ensure that faults or alarm, which may occur during maintenance, are not 
indicated on the Control Unit or Remote Display Unit. 
Disconnecting the detector cable from the detector will ensure that light entering the sample chamber 
does not result in a backup alarm being initiated. 
4.1  ENGINE ISOLATIONS 
To perform isolations on an engine it is necessary log in to Engineering access level. 
To access the Engine Isolation Menu press the Isolate button on the Engine Menu, see section 3.12 
 
Figure 116  Engine Isolation Menu 
All Detectors  Isolates/De-isolates all detectors connected to the Control Unit. 
Pre-Alarm relay  Isolates/De-isolates the Control Unit Pre-Alarm Relay. 
Slow down relay  Isolates/De-isolates the Control Unit Slowdown/Shutdown Alarm Relay.
