Checking Air Filters
The PNP Head uses two air filters. Visually
check the filters for dirt each year (filters are not
white by several shades and possibly have visi-
ble debris). If necessary, or if performance is
affected (dropping devices), remove the filters
from the PNP Head to inspect them. (Mainte-
nance interval may be adjusted depending on
your findings.)
Tools Required:
• Standard screwdriver
• tweezers
To remove the air filters:
1.
End the job if one is running. For help end-
ing a job, tap the [?] for on-screen Help.
2.
Push the Emergency-stop button. (This
allows moving the gantry by hand.)
3.
Open the cover and move the PNP Head
closer to you for access to its far side.
4.
Locate the two clear, square plastic housings
that hold the filters. Unscrew the screw
securing the upper filter.
5.
Remove the housing, being careful not to
disrupt its gasket.
6.
Pull the white strip filter from the housing
with tweezers. If it is more than slightly
dirty, replace it with a new filter or contact
Data I/O.
7.
Carefully replace the filter housing without
disrupting the gasket, and reinstall the
screw.
