Cleaning and Maintenance
Cleaning and Maintenance
Clean the Housing
To clean the outside of the vision system housing, use a small amount of mild detergent cleaner or isopropyl alcohol on
a cleaning cloth. Do not pour the cleaner directly onto the vision system housing.
CAUTION: Do not attempt to clean any In-Sight product with harsh or corrosive solvents, including lye, methyl ethyl
ketone (MEK) or gasoline.
Clean the Image Sensor Window
To remove dust from the outside of the image sensor window, use a pressurized air duster. The air must be free of oil,
moisture or other contaminants that could remain on the glass and possibly degrade the image. Do not touch the glass
window. If oil/smudges still remain, clean the window with a cotton bud using alcohol (ethyl, methyl or isopropyl). Do not
pour the alcohol directly on the window.
Clean the Cover
To remove dust from the lens cover, use a pressurized air duster. The air must be free of oil, moisture or other
contaminants that could remain on the lens cover. To clean the plastic window of the lens cover, use a small amount of
isopropyl alcohol on a cleaning cloth. Do not scratch the plastic window. Do not pour the alcohol directly on the plastic
window.
