11.1
Dismounting
WARNING!
Risk of burns
During dismounting there is a risk of high
temperatures.
▶
Let the instrument cool down sufficiently
before dismounting it!
▶
In order to cool down the metal block, set the
set temperature to a low temperature, e.g.
room temperature.
DANGER!
Danger to life caused by electric current
Upon contact with live parts, there is a direct
danger to life.
▶
The dismounting of the instrument may only
be carried out by skilled personnel.
▶
Disconnect test and calibration installations
once the system has been isolated from
power sources.
1. Cool down the temperature dry-well calibrator as
described in chapter 6.9 "Cooling down the metal block".
2. Switch off the temperature dry-well calibrator and pull out
the mains plug from the mains socket.
After switching off or after removing the mains
connection, the installed fan can no longer
provide cooling air. If the voltage supply is
interrupted during the cooling process, sufficient
thermal decoupling is still guaranteed between
the metal block and the case.

Return
Strictly observe the following when shipping the
instrument:
All instruments delivered to WIKA must be free from any
kind of hazardous substances (acids, bases, solutions, etc.)
and must therefore be cleaned before being returned, see

When returning the instrument, use the original packaging or
a suitable transport packaging.
To avoid damage:
1. Wrap the instrument in an antistatic plastic film.
2. Place the instrument, along with the shock-absorbent
material, in the packaging. Place shock-absorbent
material evenly on all sides of the transport packaging.
3. If possible, place a bag, containing a desiccant, inside the
packaging.
4. Label the shipment as transport of a highly sensitive
measuring instrument.
Information on returns can be found under the
heading "Service" on our local website.
