CHAPTER 4 MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES


4.1 PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE
Ohaus MB45 Moisture Analyzers are precision instruments and should be carefully handled, stored in a clean dry area which
is dust free, and cleaned periodically. It is recommended that when a Analyzer has had chemicals or liquids spilled on it,
the Analyzer should be cleaned as soon as possible. Use warm water on a damp cloth to clean all exterior surfaces. Do
not leave a mass on the sample pan when the Analyzer is not in use.
When moving the unit from a storage area which is at a different temperature than the area where it is to be operated, allow
sufficient time for the mechanism to temperature stabilize. This time can vary quite a bit depending upon the temperature
differences. Allow one (1) hour for each 5 degrees Fahrenheit temperature change before using the Moisture Analyzer. Also,
after turning the Analyzer ON, allow five minutes after temperature stabilization for the internal electronics to stabilize.

4.1.1 Visual Inspection


When a Moisture Analyzer is first received for repairs, the unit should be checked visually for completeness.
Check on completeness in accordance with standard equipment.
Check on the condition of the following parts:
Housing
Keypad and display
Draft shield with heat shield, pan handler and pan support
Dryer unit with protective glass, Halogen radiator, reflector
Fan grill (rear)
Leveling feet and level
Rating plate

4.1.2 Preventive Maintenance Checklist


On a regular basis, the MB45 Moisture Analyzer should be
inspected and checked as follows:
1.Remove power from the MB45.

2.Remove the Pan Support, Draftshield and


Heatshield and inspect the interior and exterior of
the Moisture Analyzer.
3.Clean the outside of the Moisture Analyzer using
a damp cloth with water or a mild household
detergent.
4. Remove any debris which may have accumulated
under the pan or shields.

Glass Shield
Pan Support
Draft Shield
Heat Shield

5.Inspect the protective glass shield


and clean any spattered material
which may have
accumulated on
the glass.
6.Inspect fan opening for excessive
dust.

CHAPTER 4 MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES


4.1.2 Preventive Maintenance Checklist (Cont.)
CAUTION
DO NOT USE CHEMICAL CLEANERS OR SOLVENTS OF ANY
TYPE. SOME CLEANERS ARE ABRASIVE AND MAY AFFECT THE
FINISH OF THE ANALYZER.
7.Check the Power Cord for broken or damaged insulation.
8.Make a visual inspection for faulty connectors, wiring, and loose hardware.

4.2 TESTING
Before servicing the MB45 Moisture Analyzer, an operational test and various performance tests should be made to ascertain
whether or not the unit meets specifications. Turn the Moisture Analyzer on and allow it warm up for at least one hour before
performing these tests. Make sure the test area is free from drafts and the surface that the Moisture Analyzer rests on is
level and vibration free. It is recommended that a ASTM Class 1 Tolerance mass be used for the performance tests and
adjustments.

4.2.1 Operational Test


1.Locate a suitable power source for the Moisture Analyzer. Check the voltage rating of the Moisture Analyzer.
2.Plug the Power Cord into a suitable power source.
NOTE: If possible, record original customer settings so that after repairs, the Moisture Analyzer can be returned in
a satisfactory operational mode.

4.2.1.1 Display Test


1.Turn the Moisture Analyzer on, a MB45 Moisture Analyzer display with the Ohaus logo should appear followed
by the software revision currently installed in the Moisture analyzer. After this display, a standard display
appears. This is a display test. Figure 4-2 is a full display test. The software revision will only appear after plugging
in the analyzer for the first time. Subsequent power on using the On/Off button will not display the software revision.

4.2.2 Weight Calibration
The Moisture Analyzer can be span calibrated with an external mass of 20 grams. Calibration of the Moisture Analyzer
balance is not absolutely necessary for a correct moisture determination as the measurement is relative. The balance
determines the weight of the sample before and after drying and the moisture is calculated on the basis of the ratio between
wet and dry weights.
Nevertheless, you should calibrate the built-in balance under the following conditions:
If this is stipulated by your quality assurance system (GLP, GMP, ISO 9001).
If you suspect the analyzer has been abused.
Before and after all repairs.
To calibrate the Analyzer, proceed as follows:

The following performance tests are used to evaluate the Moisture Analyzer operation before and after repairs. Each Moisture
Analyzer tested must meet the requirements specified in each test as well as the specifications listed in Table 1-1. Before
proceeding with the following tests, all the procedures starting with paragraph 4.2 must have been accomplished on the
Moisture Analyzer first. Tolerance values are expressed in counts. A Moisture Analyzer which passes each of these three
tests meets the manufacturing specifications.

4.2.4.1 Precision Test


Precision is a word used in balance specifications meaning the Standard Deviation of a set of similar weight readings. To
determine whether an Analyzer meets the calculated Standard Deviation value in the Specification Table 1-1, perform the
following test:

Test
1.Tare the Analyzer. The reading on the display should be 0.000g.
2.Place a 20g mass on the center of the sample pan. Observe and record the reading when the stable indicator
come on.
3.Remove the mass. Reading should return to 0g +0.002g when the stable indicator is on.
4.Repeat this test for ten readings. If the standard deviation of the readings is less than 0.0015g, the Moisture
Analyzer passes the Precision Test.
CAUTION: Remove the mass from the pan after testing.

Adjustment
If the deviation for any set of readings (using the same mass placed on the center of the pan) is greater than 0.0015g, the
Moisture Analyzer does not meet the Precision Test specification. Inspect and correct the following areas:
1.Check for mechanical obstructions. Any foreign object touching any part of the moving pan linkage assembly
will cause a Moisture Analyzer to fail the Precision Test. Inspect and correct as necessary.
2.An error in the Off-Center Load Test can affect the results of the Precision Test. Inspect and correct if necessary.
See Off-Center Load Test.
3.Foreign material or debris located in the balance between the pan and the base will cause the Moisture Analyzer
to fail the test.
4.Environmental influences such as vibrations, drafts or a non-level surface can cause failures.

CHAPTER 4 MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES


4.2.4.2

Off-Center Load Test

The Off-Center Load Test is used to determine whether displayed weight values will be affected by moving the sample to
different areas of the sample pan.
(NOTE: Due to the use of relative weighing in moisture analysis, off center load performance is not critical.)

Test
1.Place a sample pan on the pan handler.
2.Place 1/2 of the Moisture Analyzer capacity (20 gramms) in the center of the sample pan.
3.Press the TARE button to return the reading to zero.
4.Move the mass halfway (between the center and the edge) to the front of the sample pan. Note any differences
in the displayed weight reading.
5.Repeat this test for the back, left, and right positions.
6.Maximum allowable change in displayed weight readings is +0.004g for each of the four positions. If this reading
is exceeded, it usually indicates a defective Weighing Cell.

4.2.4.3 Centered Load Test


This test is used to determine the linearity of the unit throughout its operating range.
NOTES:
1. Due to the use of relative weighing and limited use of the weighing range in moisture analysis, linearity
performance is not critical.
2. The Moisture Analyzer must pass the Off-Center Load Test and Precision Test before the Centered Load
Test may be performed.

Test
1.Place a 20g mass on the center of the sample pan and note the reading.
2.If the displayed weight is greater than 0.002g higher or lower than the value of the applied mass, and recalibrate
the Moisture Analyzer. The Moisture Analyzer should now be calibrated in grams.
3.After completing the above adjustments, check the linearity at 10g and 20g. The displayed weight readings should
be equal to the applied mass. Tolerance is +0.004g for each of the respective weight readings. If the displayed
weight values are in excess of tolerance count, the Weighing Cell must be replaced.

4.3 REPAIRING THE MOISTURE ANALYZER


Disconnect from power supply and allow heating module to cool !
Important: Electrostatic protection when servicing !

Electrostatic damage is difficult to detect, because the faults it causes are not clear cut. MOS switching transistors with
electrostatic damage have substantially higher, thermically unstable leakage currents. As a result, the Moisture Analyzer
balance drifts more and the display can fluctuate similar to when there is a draft.
To avoid electrostatic damage during production, conducting floors, controlled air humidity, and EMC mats are used. When
servicing is carried out it is therefore also advisable as soon as the instrument is opened to neutralize electrostatic
charges.
