3.4. SELF-CHECK TEST
The self-check test checks the behavior of the impeller's run-out at the time when the air
sampler has stopped to draw air through the anemometer.
The control compares the run-out behavior with the run-out characteristics recorded at the
production site when the anemometer was new. If the deviations exceeds a certain level the
anemometer issues a warning. This could hint to higher friction of the impeller bearing or to
other impeller problems.
The self-check test is performed automatically after each measurement. For the initializa-
tion of the self-check test, start a measurement and wait for stable flow. Stop the measure-
ment and wait until the LED stops blinking.
Note
The self-check test detects significant variations of the bearing. However,
there is no guarantee that the anemometer will always run within the specifi-
cations if the test is passed successfully
4. TRANSPORTATION
4.1. GENERAL TRANSPORTATION RULES
The anemometer is a sensitive measurement instrument and requires careful handling.
Hazard of damage to the anemometer
Mechanical shocks must be avoided under any circumstances.
Hazard of damage to the anemometer
Always transport the anemometer inside the transportation case.
4.2. STORAGE AND DAILY TRANSPORTATION BETWEEN LOCATIONS
Store and transport the MAS-100 Regulus in the supplied transportation case for daily oper-
ations.
4.3. SHIPMENT TO CALIBRATION LAB
Activate the transportation mode for shipping the MAS-100 Regulus to a calibration lab.
The transport mode should only be activated for transporting the MAS-100 Regulus inside
the dedicated robust transportation case, for instance for shipping it to a calibration labora-
tory. This function is only available for MAS-100 Regulus with firmware versions 1.4 and
above (visible on info screen 3).
PROCEDURE
1) Unplug all cables from the MAS-100 Regulus
2) Press the Info button until Info Screen 2 appears
