WINDOW CLEANING

The Laser Sentinel optical window needs periodical cleaning, and the frequency
depends on the type of environment in which the device operates.
CAUTION
CAUTION
It is recommended to use the anti-static cleaner (SLS-CLEANER order no.95ASE2990)
and the disposable cloths (SLS-CLOTH order no.95ASE3000) to remove dirt and dust
deposits from the optical window.
Otherwise use a soft non-electrostatic cloth and a non-aggressive and non-abrasive
cleaning agent.
In particular, the cleaning procedure depends on the kind of contamination:
CONTAMINATION
Loose, abrasive particles
Loose, non-abrasive
particles
Statically charged particles
Adhering particles
Oil drops
Fingerprints
Water drops
Deep scratches and cracks
Contamination of the optical window (due to dust, oil, etc.) in the presence
of background reflection may impair the detection capability of the safety
laser scanner. Always keep the optical window free from contamination.
The device may present failure if the optical window is scratched or dam-
aged. In case of abrasive particle deposits, make sure to rub gently against
the window during cleaning to avoid any damage. If the window is
scratched, window or device replacement is recommended.
