Inspection and Cleaning
This subsection describes how to determine whether the AWG2005 needs
cleaning, and how to do the cleaning. Inspection and cleaning are prevenĆ
tive maintenance procedures. When done regularly, preventive maintenance
may prevent AWG2005 malfunction and enhance reliability.
Preventive maintenance consists of visually inspecting and cleaning the
AWG2005 and using general care when operating it.
How often to do maintenance depends on the severity of the environment in
which the AWG2005 operates.
The cabinet helps keep dust out of the AWG2005 and is a major component
of the instrument cooling system. The cabinet should normally be in place
when operating the AWG2005. The AWG2005 front cover (optional accessoĆ
ry) protects the front panel and display from dust and damage. Install it
when storing or transporting the instrument.
Inspect and clean the AWG2005 as operating conditions require. The collecĆ
tion of dirt on components inside can cause them to overheat and break
down. (Dirt acts as an insulating blanket, preventing efficient heat dissipaĆ
tion.) Dirt also provides an electrical conduction path that can cause an
instrument failure, especially under highĆhumidity conditions.
WARNING
To avoid personal injury or death due to electric shock, unplug the
power cord from the line voltage source before cleaning the
AWG2005.
