3.2. UNPACKING THE M100E ANALYZER

CAUTION

GENERAL SAFETY HAZARD

To avoid personal injury, always use two persons to lift and carry the M100E.

1. Verify that there is no apparent external shipping damage. If damage has occurred, please advise the

shipper first, then Teledyne API.

2. Included with your analyzer is a printed record of the final performance characterization performed on your

instrument at the factory. It is titled Final Test and Validation Data Sheet (P/N 04551). This record is an

important quality assurance and calibration record for this instrument. It should be placed in the quality

records file for this instrument.

3. Carefully remove the top cover of the analyzer and check for internal shipping damage by:

 Removing the locking screw located in the top, center of the Front panel;

 Removing the two flat head, Phillips screws on the sides of the instrument;

 Sliding the cover backwards until it clears the analyzer’s front bezel, and;

 Lifting the cover straight up.

4. Inspect the interior of the instrument to ensure that all circuit boards and other components are in good

shape and properly seated.

5. Check the connectors of the various internal wiring harnesses and pneumatic hoses to ensure that they are

firmly and properly seated.

6. Verify that all of the optional hardware ordered with the unit has been installed. These are listed on the

paperwork accompanying the analyzer.

NOTE

Printed Circuit Assemblies (PCAs) are sensitive to electro-static discharges too small to be felt by the

human nervous system. Failure to use ESD protection when working with electronic assemblies will

void the instrument warranty.

Refer to Chapter 13 for more information on preventing ESD damage.

CAUTION

ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD

Never disconnect PCAs, wiring harnesses or electronic subassemblies while under

power.
