3. Maintenance Introduction
3. Maintenance
3.1 Introduction
The reliability of any stand-alone product or control system is affected by the maintenance of the equipment. ABB
Automation recommends that all equipment receive preventive maintenance to keep the equipment operating at an
optimum level.
This section presents procedures that the customer should be able to perform on site. These preventive maintenance
procedures should be used as a guideline to assist in establishing good preventive maintenance practices.
Task Frequency
Check cabinet air filters. Clean or replace them as necessary. Check the air filter 3 months
more frequently in excessively dirty environments.
Check cabinet and termination unit for dust. Clean as necessary using an antistatic
vacuum.
Check all termination unit signal, power and ground connections within the cabinet.
Verify that they are secure. Refer to procedure.
Check termination unit circuit board, giving special attention to power contacts and 12 months
edge connectors. Clean as necessary. Refer to procedure.
2VAA001664 3-1
Printed Circuit Board Cleaning 3. Maintenance
Wear eye protection whenever working with cleaning solvents. When removing solvents
from printed circuit boards using compressed air, injury to the eyes could result from
splashing solvent as it is removed from the printed circuit board.
There are several circuit board cleaning procedures in this section. These procedures cover circuit board cleaning and
washing, cleaning edge connectors and circuit board laminate between edge connectors. Use the procedures that meet the
needs of each circuit board. Remove all dust, dirt, oil, corrosion or any other contaminant from the circuit board.
Perform all cleaning and handling of the printed circuit boards at static safe work stations. Always observe the steps
under sub-section 2.2- Special Handling of this user manual when handling printed circuit boards.
2. Remove excess solvent by using compressed air to blow it free of the circuit board.
1. Use a solvent mixture of 80% isopropyl alcohol (99.5% electronic grade) and 20% distilled water.
2. Soak a lint-free cloth with the solvent mixture.
3. Work the cloth back and forth parallel to the edge connector contacts.
4. Repeat with a clean cloth that is soaked with the solvent mixture.
5. Dry the edge connector contact area by wiping with a clean lint-free cloth.
Follow the given steps to clean tarnished or deeply stained edge connector contacts:
2. Minimize electrostatic discharge by using the 80/20 isopropyl alcohol/water solution during burnishing.
NOTE: Do not use excessive force while burnishing. Use only enough force to shine the contact surface.
3. Inspect the edge connector after cleaning to assure no loss of contact surface.
4. Wipe clean with a lint-free cloth.
If input or output circuits are a shock hazard after disconnecting system power at the
power entry panel, then the door of the cabinet containing these externally powered
circuits must be marked with a warning stating that multiple power sources exist.
Check all signal wiring, power and ground connections within the cabinet to verify their integrity. When checking
connections, always turn a screw, nut or other fastening device in the direction to tighten only. If the connection is loose, it
3-2 2VAA001664
3. Maintenance Checking Connections
will be tightened. If the connection is tight, the tightening action will verify that it is secure. There must not be any motion
done to loosen the connection.
NOTES:
1.Verify that all power connections within the cabinet are secure.
2.Verify that all wiring connections to the termination unit are secure.

4. Repair and Replacement Introduction
The following table (Table 4-1) details the replacement and spare parts list.
If it is determined that the termination unit is faulty, then replace it with a new one. Do not try to repair the termination unit;
replacing components may affect performance and certification. Table 4-1 contains a list of recommended spare parts.
• All jumper settings on the replacement termination unit are the same as the failed unit.
• The module terminated by the faulty termination unit is disconnected from its TU cable before that cable is
disconnected from the termination unit. Pull the module out of its MMU slot so that its edge connector is not in
contact with the TU cable connected to the MMU backplane.
NOTE: Turn off power to the cabinet before removing the +24 VDC and grounding connection to the NTCL01
termination unit.
