Dome Cleaning Procedure
The dome must be kept clean. The instructions must be followed as described
in this chapter to clean the dome.
CAUTION
Before any cleaning procedure, ensure that the instrument is switched off and
the battery has been removed.
Using a compressed gas duster or canned air, remove dust and debris from
surface of the dome.
☞
Never rub off dust or debris as this will scratch the glass and so pos-
sibly cause permanent damage to the special optical coatings.
Soiling of the glass pane can cause extreme measurement errors and there-
fore useless data!
☞
All soiling that is visible on the glass pane has to be removed, except
for single small dust particles that adhere inevitably.
For the glass cleaning procedure, the wet and dry lens cleaner
Green Clean LC-7010 is recommended (www.green-clean.at/en.html).
Clean the glass pane regularly with the recommended cleaning tissue:
