1.1 Prerequisites
Getinge has ESD protection integrated into the production and testing of electronic
equipment, and also requires ESD protection to be used after delivery for the
warranty to apply.

It is important to reduce the likelihood of ESD to avoid damage to sensitive electronic


components. As a basic precaution, it is recommended to wear ESD wrist strap, sole
grounders or conductive shoes when preforming maintenance on the unit. Keep
electronic components in the anti-static bag until you are ready to install them in
order to prevent charge from building up.

Requirements when performing maintenance to avoid ESD:


 Use ESD pads connected to the earth in accordance with the manufacturer’s
instructions to hold disassembled or new electronic boards during assembly
work.
 Do not touch electronic boards with tools that may be charged, like
screwdrivers with a plastic or wooden handle.
 Use grounded tools, if necessary.
 Always use an ESD wrist strap connected to the earth in accordance with the
manufacturer’s instructions when working in the electronic enclosure or when
handling boards.
 Do not keep any foreign objects, such as drawings or plastic pockets, inside
the electronic box.
 Test the ESD protective equipment on a regular basis.
To start with the maintenance/repair inspection the following steps should always be
followed first:
 Check whether the mains plug of the unit has been pulled out.

  Attention! To avoid damage caused by electrostatic charging.

1.2 Danger of injury


 During troubleshooting, calibrating or validation of the unit it may be necessary
to turn on the unit with an open housing. You should do this with extreme care

1.2.1 Risk of electric shock


 Operating a running unit with open housing can result in an electric shock.
The areas marked in Pic 1 use mains voltage.

5
SERVICE MANUAL ProSeal Classic/Plus/Premium

Touching these areas can cause lethal injury!

Pic 1

1.2.2 Risk of burning


 During operation, the heat elements can reach temperatures to 200°C.
Touching these parts or parts around them can result in severe burning.

1.2.3 Risk of Entrapment


 In standby mode, the sealer transport belt can start to move to avoid radiant
heat on the transport belt.

1.2.4 Tools
Tools needed to service and repair the unit are:
1
 Allen key 1 2, 4, 5 and 8
