Cleaning The Sensor Window; Ruggedized Cable Accessories - Teledyne G3-GM10-M0641 User Manual

Cleaning the Sensor Window

Even with careful handling, the sensor window may need cleaning. The following steps describe
various cleaning techniques to clean minor dust particles to accidental finger touches.
Use compressed air to blow off loose particles. This step alone is usually sufficient to clean the
•
sensor window. Avoid moving or shaking the compressed air container and use short bursts of
air while moving the camera in the air stream. Agitating the container will cause condensation
to form in the air stream. Long air bursts will chill the sensor window causing more
condensation. Condensation, even when left to dry naturally, will deposit more particles on the
sensor.
When compressed air cannot clean the sensor, Teledyne DALSA recommends using lint-free
•
ESD-safe cloth wipers that do not contain particles that can scratch the window. The Anticon
Gold 9"x 9" wiper made by Milliken is both ESD safe and suitable for class 100 environments.
Another ESD acceptable wiper is the TX4025 from Texwipe.
An alternative to ESD-safe cloth wipers is Transplex swabs that have desirable ESD properties.
•
There are several varieties available from Texwipe. Do not use regular cotton swabs, since
these can introduce static charge to the window surface.
• Wipe the window carefully and slowly when using these products.
