Maintenance and service
No routine maintenance is required except for cleaning.
5.1
Cleaning
Clean the equipment with a damp cloth, using water only. Do not use chemical cleaning
agents. Before using any other cleaning or decontamination method, check with the
manufacturer or supplier to make sure that the proposed method will not damage the
equipment.
Scale on immersed parts can be removed using chemical de-scaling products designed for
use on kitchen equipment which has metal heating elements. De-scaling products may be
toxic and manufacturer's instructions should always be followed.
5.2
Replacement of fuses
The fuses are internal and should not need to be replaced.
5.3
Routine safety tests
If routine tests are to be made, we recommend a test of the integrity of the protective earth
conductor and an insulation test at 500 Vd.c. Routine flash tests are not recommended for
any electrical equipment, because repeated high voltage tests degrade insulation materials.
5.4
Replacing the mains cord
Any replacement mains cord-set used with the water baths must meet the same
specification as the one originally supplied with the unit to maintain safety of the unit and
must be no more than 3 metres long
For Europe (including the UK), the cable must have the following markings; <HAR>,
HO5VV-F 3Gx1mm2 and be rated to carry 10A. The mains plug and IEC connector must
carry approvals from a European certification body (e.g. BSI, VDE or equivalent).
