4. Maintenance
The STVP-936 is designed for minimal maintenance. However, periodic checks are recommended to ensure optimal performance and safety:
- Cleaning: Keep the device clean and free from dust. Use a dry, soft cloth for cleaning. Do not use liquid cleaners.
- Connection Check: Periodically inspect wiring connections to ensure they are secure and free from corrosion.
- Environmental Conditions: Ensure the operating environment remains within specified temperature and humidity ranges.
5. Troubleshooting
If the device is not functioning as expected, consider the following common issues:
- No Power/Display Off: Check incoming power supply and wiring connections. Ensure the device is correctly installed.
- Frequent Tripping: Review the set protection parameters (overvoltage, undervoltage, overcurrent) to ensure they are appropriate for your electrical system. Check for actual power fluctuations or overloads.
- Incorrect Readings: Verify wiring. If readings are consistently inaccurate, the device may require professional inspection.
- Device Not Resetting: Check the failure recovery delay time setting. Ensure the fault condition has cleared.
The device also features a fault inquiry function. Consult the full product manual for details on how to access and interpret fault codes.
