Maintenance
Inspection
Examine the instrument periodically to keep it
free of dust, debris, and moisture. Keep the
furnace area clean. Any sample spillage of
residue should be removed before the next
experiment.
Cleaning
the Instrument
You can clean the TGA instrument keypad as
often as you like. The keypad is covered with a
silk-screen Mylar* overlay that is reasonably
water resistant but not waterproof or resistant to
strong solvents or abrasives.
A household liquid glass cleaner and paper
towel are best for cleaning the instrument
keypad. Wet the towel, not the keypad, with the
glass cleaner, and then wipe off the keypad and
display.
