b) Other information
If you have doubts about how the equipment should be operated or how to safely connect it, consult a
trained technician.
Maintenance, adjustment and repair work may be carried out only by an expert or a specialist workshop.
If in doubt about how to connect the device correctly, or should any questions arise that are not answered
in these operating instructions, please contact our technical service or another specialist.
CONNECTION
Only the camera sensor (incl. mirror tube) must be submerged in de-energised liquids.
The camera sensor must not be submerged above the marking “IP67 max. water level”.
The socket area must always stay dry.
The camera sensor must only be used for inspection in de-energised equipment. The
camera sensor is made of metal and this may lead to short-circuits. For safety reasons,
de-energise all components prior to every inspection.
Avoid strong mechanical stress or vibrations.
1. Switch off the borescope.
2. Connect the plug of the spiral connection cable (with metal nose) with the connection socket at the
borescope. The metal nose of the plug only fits into the socket on the correct side. Secure the plug con-
nection with the screw sleeve at the borescope turning clockwise direction.
Make sure the connection socket is aligned exactly with the pins of the connection plug. The metal
nose of the plug only fits into the socket on the correct side.
3. Repeat this step for the plug connection for the camera sensor and the spiral connection cable.
4. Switch the Endoscope on.
5. Proceed in reverse order to disconnect the camera sensor from the borescope.
Information about controlling the LED brightness can be found in the operating instructions of the
borescope.
USE OF THE 45°-MIRROR TUBE
1. Slide the 45°-mirror tube on the front of the camera sensor.
2. The 45°-mirror tube can be rotated by 365°.
CLEANING
To clean the camera lens, use a soft cloth or a cleaning swab.
To clean the camera sensor and the mirror tube, use a soft, damp cloth. Always tore the well-dried camera
sensor in the carrier bag provided to avoid damage.
DISPOSAL
Electronic devices are recyclable material and do not belong with household waste.
Please dispose of the product, when it is no longer of use, according to the current statutory
requirements.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
BORESCOPE CAMERA SENSOR BS-260XCT
ITEM NO. 1285871
INTENDED USE
This product can be used as camera attachment for the borescopes with replaceable borescope camera
sensors (labelled with “X” after the type number) of the Voltcraft BS-xx X and BS-xxx X for optical fault
finding or inspection of de-energised equipment and devices. The four LEDs integrated in the camera
head enable recordings or photos in totally dark areas. The brightness can be adjusted via the borescope
connected. The camera sensor is waterproof up to the marking (IP67) and perfectly suitable for use in
de-energised liquids (no acids or bases). The 45°-mirror tube allows inspection of border areas of 90° that
are difficult to reach. Use on humans and animals as well as in explosive areas is not permitted. The power
is supplied via the respective connected borescope.
For safety and approval reasons (CE), you may not convert and/or alter the product. If you use the product
for purposes other than those described above, the product may be damaged. Furthermore, improper use
may cause risks such as short-circuits, fire, electric shocks, injuries, etc.
The borescope is not a medical product and is not approved for use with humans and animals.
Please read the operating instructions carefully and do not discard them. If you pass the product on to a
third party, please hand over these operating instructions as well.
