CHAPTER 3: MINIWIPER
3.1 Overview
The miniWIPER is intended to provide a gentle wiping of the Cyclops-7oxygensensitive membrane
at user-programmable intervals. Customers will be required to open the wiper to set the wiper
interval or to exchange the batteries. This chapter describes the wiper internal features.
3.2 Opening and Closing the Wiper
The wiper circuitry is contained in a waterproof housing that must be opened. The housing is opened
by unscrewing the white pressure housing from the black end cap. Turn the pressure housing
counter clockwise relative to black end cap. Close by reversing this procedure after being sure that
the o-ring is free from debris. Lube o-ring occasionally with grease intended for buna-N o-ring
material.
Please attempt to handle the miniWIPER only by the aluminum chassis, without touching the circuit
card.
When closing the miniWIPER just screw the white cylinder onto the black end cap until the cylinder
just touches the end cap. Do not tighten! miniWIPER tends to get a little tighter during deployment.
3.3 Electrical Connections and Controls
Removal of the cover reveals the wiper connections and controls, shown below.
The
LED Light
