6 MAINTENANCE.
6.1 BEFORE USE.
• Unpacking and handling instructions.
The transporting case protects the SA10A from being damaged.
The Switch Analyzer is a field-test equipment and is constructed to withstand the handling it requires to fulfil its
purposes, although the front panel is sensitive for scratches and other marks. The display is the most sensitive point
of the SA10A, it will not tolerate harsh management. This should be considered during unpacking and handling of the
unit.
• Charge the battery for at least 10 hours.
Note!
The SA10A internal batteries may be need recharging, if it has been stored without charging for some time.
Recharge by connecting the mains power cable for at least 12 hours.
• Check battery condition.
By short circuiting the high current cables (2*10 m, 25 mm2) and make a resistance measurement. The measurement
current should be >195A.
If the value is lower than 195 A you have to charge the internal battery by connecting the mains input to a wall socket
for some hours. Make a new try and check the current value again.
If the value still is lower than 195 A the battery must be replaced.
Note! This is important if Resistance measurement shall be done.
6.2 AFTER USE.
• Clean the front panel and set the unit to dry.
• Charge battery by connecting the mains input to a wall socket.
6.3 STORING THE SA10A.
The SA10A should always be stored indoors in a dry place.
The SA10A should not be stored in subzero temperatures for a longer period of time.
It should not be stored in extreme environments either.
Storage temperature: -40 to 40 degrees
Transport temperature: -40 to 40 degrees
Note!
SA10A internal batteries may need recharging if it has been stored for several months.
Recharge by connecting the mains power cable.
6.4 EVERY YE AR OR WHEN NECESSARY.
• Check and calibrate the equipment as described in paragraph 7 Adjustments.
