7.4 Routine Servicing
The MCU Control Unit will provide a reliable and fault free service but they rely upon sensible
housekeeping and regular calibrations.
It is recommended that the system be calibrated at least once every six months. This can be
arranged with Status Scientific Controls as part of a maintenance contract.
7.4.1 Routine Inspection
It is advisable to periodically inspect the MCU Control Unit Installation:
• Check cables to ensure no damage has occurred.
• Clean control unit casing using a clean cloth.
• Clean detector heads using a clean DAMP cloth.
Note:
Use of a dry cloth would constitute a static hazard.
• Inspect detector heads and ensure the sensor housings aperture is not obstructed.
Note:
Do not use solvents to clean the LCD display window on the control units or the detector heads.
The time interval between routine inspections will depend upon the area in which the equipment
is installed. A clean laboratory installation may only require inspection at the time of calibration,
whereas an installation in a particularly dirty environment may require weekly inspections. It is the
responsibility of the system engineer to assess the installation environment and determine the
frequency of routine inspections.
