SECTION 6. MAINTENANCE
6.1 BATTERY REPLACEMENT
Refer to Part 2.2 for battery installation procedure.
6.2 CLEANING THE THERMOSIGHT PRO
Wipe the housing with a damp cloth as needed.
CAUTION:
Do not use abrasives or solvents to clean the housing, lens,
or display window. Do not use ammonia-based cleaning products to
clean the lens. Doing so may damage the anti-reflective coating of the
lens.
The ThermoSight Pro thermal camera lens is designed for the harsh
outdoor environment and has a coating for durability and anti-
reflection, but it may require cleaning occasionally. Avoid scratching
the lens and/or leaving fingerprints on the optics. The camera optics
can be damaged by improper cleaning. Clean the lens according to
the instructions below when image quality degradation is noticed or
excessive dirt or other contaminant is on the lens.
Do not use abrasive materials, such as paper or scrub brushes as this
will possibly damage the lens by scratching it. Only wipe the lens clean
when there is visible contamination on the surface.
PREFERRED METHOD FOR CLEANING THE LENS
Materials:
• Optical-grade cloth
• Pure water (de-ionized or other)
• Isopropyl alcohol (IPA)
Saturate a piece of the lens tissue with the water and drape it over
the lens. Let the surface tension of the water pull the tissue onto the
lens surface and then drag the tissue across the lens surface. Repeat
several times with different pieces of tissue.
Repeat the same step using IPA instead of water. Drag the final piece
of tissue over the lens several times to prevent pooling, which could
leave a residue behind.
