b. Maintenance
With care the Color Block PSU-30 will require little maintenance. However, as the unit is likely to be used in a stage
environment we recommend periodical internal inspection and cleaning of any resulting dust and cracked oil residue. In
addition the internal battery will need to be replaced on a regular basis (see following section).
Do not spray liquids on the front or rear panel. If the front enclosure requires cleaning, wipe with a mild detergent on a damp
soft cloth.
c. Battery replacement
The CR20/32 Lithium battery should last approximately 5 years from the date the battery was made note that a 4 year life
from date of product sale would not be unexpected when delivery and manufacturing times are allowed for.
Caution:
Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced. Replace only with the same or equivalent type recommended
by the manufacturer. Dispose of used batteries according to the battery manufacturer’s instructions and local regulations.
d. Installation
The Color Block PSU-30 must be installed in a 2U rack mounted enclosure and be supported front and rear. Ensure
adequate ventilation around the front and rear of the enclosure. Failure to allow adequate ventilation may result in premature
failure of the unit.
