CAUTION: INGRESS PROTECTION CLASSIFICATION FOR THE AUTO PHOROPTOR HEAD IS IP2X, WHILE THE

The Phoroptor VRx is an enclosed unit with an ingress protection classification of IP2X (Phoroptor Head)
or IP3X (Central Unit and Controller). The lenses and other internal parts cannot be accessed by the
operator for cleaning.
The Phoroptor VRx requires no user maintenance. It is recommended to send in the Phoroptor Head to
Reichert if interior lens cleaning is necessary.
To ensure that the Phoroptor VRx Head remains clean, cover the Phoroptor Head with the dust cover
when not in use. Consistent use of the dust cover will help keep dust and other contaminants off of the
unit and from getting inside and possibly affecting operation.
Note: Make sure the power to the Phoroptor VRx is OFF before covering the instrument.
