Safety and Maintenance Instructions, Warnings, and Notes

2. Safety and Maintenance Instructions, Warnings, and Notes
2.1 Safety Instructions
Safety regulations require that during a repair: · Due to the chassis concept, a very large part of the circuitry (incl. deflection) is 'hot'. Therefore, connect the set to the mains via an isolation transformer. · Replace safety components, indicated by the symbol h, only by components identical to the original ones. Any other component substitution (other than original type) may increase risk of fire or electrical shock hazard. · Wear safety goggles when you replace the CRT. Safety regulations require that after a repair, you must return the set in its original condition. Pay, in particular, attention to the following points: · General repair instruction: as a strict precaution, we advise you to re-solder the solder connections through which the horizontal deflection current is flowing. In particular this is valid for the: 1. Pins of the line output transformer (LOT). 2. Fly-back capacitor(s). 3. S-correction capacitor(s). 4. Line output transistor. 5. Pins of the connector with wires to the deflection coil. 6. Other components through which the deflection current flows. Note: This re-soldering is advised to prevent bad connections due to metal fatigue in solder connections, and is therefore only necessary for television sets more than two years old. · Route the wire trees and EHT cable correctly and secure them with the mounted cable clamps. · Check the insulation of the mains cord for external damage. · Check the strain relief of the mains cord for proper function, to prevent the cord from touching the CRT, hot components, or heat sinks. · Check the electrical DC resistance between the mains plug and the secondary side (only for sets that have an isolated power supply). Do this as follows: 1. Unplug the mains cord and connect a wire between the two pins of the mains plug. 2. Turn on the main power switch (keep the mains cord unplugged!). 3. Measure the resistance value between the pins of the mains plug and the metal shielding of the tuner or the aerial connection of the set. The reading should be between 4.5 M and 12 M. 4. Switch the TV 'off' and remove the wire between the two pins of the mains plug. · Check the cabinet for defects, to prevent the possibility of the customer touching any internal parts.

2.3

Warnings
· In order to prevent damage to ICs and transistors, avoid all high voltage flashovers. In order to prevent damage to the picture tube, use the method shown in Fig. 2-1, to discharge the picture tube. Use a high voltage probe and a multi-meter (position V_dc). Discharge until the meter reading is 0 V (after approx. 30 s).

V

E_06532_007.eps 110204

Figure 2-1 Discharge picture tube · All ICs and many other semiconductors are susceptible to electrostatic discharges (ESD, w). Careless handling during repair can reduce life drastically. Make sure that, during repair, you are connected with the same potential as the mass of the set by a wristband with resistance. Keep components and tools also at this potential. Available ESD protection equipment: ­ Complete kit ESD3 (small tablemat, wristband, connection box, extension cable and ground cable) 4822 310 10671. ­ Wristband tester 4822 344 13999. Together with the deflection unit and any multi-pole unit, flat square picture tubes form an integrated unit. The deflection and the multi-pole units are set optimally at the factory. We do not recommend adjusting this unit during repair. Be careful during measurements in the high voltage section and on the picture tube. Never replace modules or other components while the unit is 'on'. When you align the set, use plastic rather than metal tools. This will prevent any short circuits and the danger of a circuit becoming unstable.

2.4.1

Notes
General · Measure the voltages and waveforms with regard to the chassis (= tuner) ground (H), or hot ground (I), depending on the tested area of circuitry. The voltages and waveforms shown in the diagrams are indicative. Measure them in the Service Default Mode (see chapter 5) with a color bar signal and stereo sound (L: 3 kHz, R: 1 kHz unless stated otherwise) and picture carrier at 475.25 MHz for PAL, or 61.25 MHz for NTSC (channel 3). Where necessary, measure the waveforms and voltages with (D) and without (E) aerial signal. Measure the voltages in the power supply section both in normal operation (G) and in standby (F). These values are indicated by means of the appropriate symbols.

2.2

Maintenance Instructions
We recommend a maintenance inspection carried out by qualified service personnel. The interval depends on the usage conditions: · When a customer uses the set under normal circumstances, for example in a living room, the recommended interval is three to five years. · When a customer uses the set in an environment with higher dust, grease, or moisture levels, for example in a kitchen, the recommended interval is one year. · The maintenance inspection includes the following actions: 1. Perform the 'general repair instruction' noted above. 2. Clean the power supply and deflection circuitry on the chassis. 3. Clean the picture tube panel and the neck of the picture tube.

·

·

Safety and Maintenance Instructions, Warnings, and Notes
· The picture tube panel has printed spark gaps. Each spark gap is connected between an electrode of the picture tube and the Aquadag coating. The semiconductors indicated in the circuit diagram and in the parts lists, are interchangeable per position with the semiconductors in the unit, irrespective of the type indication on these semiconductors. · · · · ·

2.4.2

Schematic Notes · All resistor values are in ohms and the value multiplier is often used to indicate the decimal point location (e.g. 2K2 indicates 2.2 kohm). Resistor values with no multiplier may be indicated with either an "E" or an "R" (e.g. 220E or 220R indicates 220 ohm). All capacitor values are expressed in: micro-farads (µ= x 10^-6), nano-farads (n= x 10^-9), or pico-farads (p= x 10^-12). Capacitor values may also use the value multiplier as the decimal point indication (e.g. 2p2 indicates 2.2 pF). An "asterisk" (*) indicates component usage varies. Refer to the diversity tables for the correct values. The correct component values are listed in the Electrical Replacement Parts List. Therefore, always check this list when there is any doubt.

Use only adequate solder tools applicable for lead-free soldering tin. Adjust your solder tool so that a temperature around 217 - 220 deg. C is reached at the solder joint. Do not mix lead-free soldering tin with leaded soldering tin; this will lead to unreliable solder joints! Use only original spare parts listed in this manual. These are lead-free parts! On the website www.atyourservice.ce.philips.com you can find more information on: ­ Aspects of lead-free technology. ­ BGA (de-)soldering, heating-profiles of BGAs used in Philips sets, and others

2.4.3

Practical Service Precautions · It makes sense to avoid exposure to electrical shock. While some sources are expected to have a possible dangerous impact, others of quite high potential are of limited current and are sometimes held in less regard. Always respect voltages. While some may not be dangerous in themselves, they can cause unexpected reactions - reactions that are best avoided. Before reaching into a powered TV set, it is best to test the high voltage insulation. It is easy to do, and is a good service precaution. Before powering up the TV set with the back cover off (or on a test fixture), attach a clip lead to the CRT DAG ground and to a screwdriver blade that has a well insulated handle. After the TV is powered "on" and high voltage has developed, probe the anode lead with the blade, starting at the case of the High Voltage Transformer (flyback - IFT). Move the blade to within two inches of the connector of the CRT. If there is an arc, you found it the easy way, without getting a shock! If there is an arc to the screwdriver blade, replace the part that is causing the problem: the High Voltage Transformer or the lead (if it is removable).

Lead Free Solder This set is manufactured with lead-free production technology. This is also indicated on the PWB by the PHILIPS lead-free logo (either by a service-printing or by a sticker).

Figure 2-2 Lead-free logo This set is produced with lead-free solder alloy as well as with lead-free sub-parts. It can be considered as lead-free. Due to this fact, some rules have to be respected by the workshop during a repair: · Use only lead-free soldering tin Philips SAC305 with order code 0622 149 00106. If lead-free solder paste is required, please contact the manufacturer of your soldering equipment.
