58 U2000 Series Operating and Service Guide
General Information
This chapter contains information about general maintenance, performance
tests, troubleshooting and the repair of U2000 Series USB power sensors.
Cleaning
Use a clean, damp cloth to clean the body of the U2000 Series USB power
sensors.
Connector Cleaning
Keeping in mind its flammable nature, a solution of pure isopropyl or ethyl
alcohol can be used to clean the connector.
Clean the connector face using a cotton swab dipped in isopropyl alcohol. If
the swab is too big use, use a round wooden toothpick wrapped in a lint- free
cotton cloth dipped in isopropyl alcohol.
Refer to Agilent Application Note 326, Principles of Microwave Connector
Care (5954- 1566) or Microwave Connector Care (08510- 90064) for proper
cleaning methods.
The RF connector beads deteriorate when contacted with hydrocarbon compounds such as
acetone, trichloroethylene, carbon tetrachloride, and benzene.
Clean the connector only at a static free workstation. Electrostatic discharge to the center
pin of the connector will render the power sensor inoperative.
