7. CARING FOR THE EM50
7.1 REPLACING THE BATTERIES
The Em50 requires little maintenance, if you install it correctly. The primary maintenance
issue is that batteries must be replaced when their charge becomes too low. When the
battery life indicator in ECH20 Utility shows your Em50 batteries are less than 5%, you need
to replace them to continue logging and transmitting data. Use only NiMH (Nickel-Metal
Hydride) batteries with the Em50/Em50G Solar loggers.
NOTE: Installing or changing the batteries in your Em50 resets the internal real-time clock. You must connect to your
Em50 using any ECH2O system software to reset the logger clock immediately after changing the batteries. Set the
logger clock to ensure the recorded measurement time and date remain correct.
7.2 LONGTERM MAINTENANCE
When caring for the Em50 over an extended period of time, be sure to check the logger
periodically.
• Check the battery holders and make sure they are clean and free of corrosion.
• Check that the sensor ports are clean, and that the sensors are making good contact with
the ports.
• Check case gaskets and sensor cable strain relief.
• Check or replace any zip ties securing the logger annually.
