Care And Maintenance - Gallagher G060 Instrucciones Para La Instalación

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

Gallagher load bars are designed for use in a livestock environment and are
therefore tough and reliable. However proper care and maintenance can extend
their life.
Note: This product is not suitable for use in harsh or corrosive environments (e.g.
piggery installations or similar)
Below is a list of tips and guidelines for maintaining load bars.
Although Gallagher load bars are waterproof, it is recommended that they
•
are not submerged in water.
Cables should be positioned so they will not be stepped on or crushed. Run
•
the cables through a duct to prevent damage.
• To prevent dust or moisture from entering the cables, replace the dust caps
immediately after the load bar plugs are disconnected from the Scale,
• Any load bars with damaged cables should be returned to a Gallagher
Service Centre for repair. Split or damaged cables can affect the
performance of the load bars. If emergency repairs need to be carried out,
the damaged cable should be wrapped with insulating tape.
The platform and load bars should be cleaned up after use. Hose off all dirt
•
and mud to prevent corrosion.
Important: When cleaning the load bars, do NOT direct a water blaster in
the load cell area.
• If the load bars are not permanently installed, they should be stored in a dry
place.
Hint: Cut the top off a large plastic container, e.g. drench container. Nail the
container upside down (i.e. with the opening at the bottom) in the race.
When the load bar cables are not in use, they can be coiled up and hung on
a nail inside the container.
Important for Wireless Loadbars:
Keep the wireless loadbar modules and the ground area between the
loadbar modules, clear of mud and debris.
