How to replace a battery

PreviousHow to fix a bad connectionNextPressure Gauge (PG)

Last updated 10 months ago

Batteries in the NEON product family are user-serviceable components. Therefore, the user can replace such batteries following the instructions outlined next.

Batteries must be replaced outside of the ATEX zone (Hazardous Location).

Pressure Gauge (PG)

Step 1: Remove the four M3 screws and remove the bottom housing.

Step 2: Before removing the battery assembly, disconnect the battery connector (marked in red).

Step 3: Place the new battery assembly using the rib on the battery cradle (marked in red) to align with the designated cut-out in the top housing. Connect the new battery connector.

Step 4 (Optional): Deactivate the device if a Built-In Self-Test is needed.

Step 5 (Optional): Built-In Self-Test.

  1. After a successful replacement of the battery, the device will go into self-test mode. This mode is activated for 30 seconds.

    1. A BLUE LED will show after inserting the battery;

    2. If no LED is shown, check the battery and / or device;

  2. Start the test by pressing and releasing the button;

  3. Check the results:

    1. LED turns bright WHITE for 5 seconds. Self test passed;

    2. LED turns RED, self test failed. Check device;

    3. No LED, no response from device. Check device.

Step 6: Replace the 4 o-rings surrounding the screws and the gasket in the outer edge of the bottom housing.

Step 7: Place the bottom housing back onto the top housing. For correct orientation; make sure that the bottom housing grounding plate is aligned with the top housing M12 connector.

Step 8: Tighten the four M3 screws to fix the bottom housing. Use a torque screwdriver to set the maximum torque to 1 Nm.
