Cleaning Instructions for this
Device
This Cleaning Information applies to a number of different types of Optical
Equipment.
Sections of particularly relevance to the following devices are cross-
referenced below.
81000xA Optical Head Adapters
When using optical head adapters, periodically inspect the optical head's
front window (see “How to clean connector adapters” on page 96 for
cleaning procedures). Dust and metal particles can be propelled through
the adapter's pinhole while inserting the connector ferrule into the
receptacle. These dirt particles collect on the head's front window and, if
not removed, can lead to incorrect measurement results.
8162xx Optical Power Heads
Periodically inspect the optical head's front window for dust and other
particles (see “How to clean instruments with an optical glass plate” on
page 100 for cleaning procedures). These can be propelled through the
optical head adapter's pinhole while inserting a connector ferrule into the
receptacle. Particles on the optical head's front window can significantly
impair measurement results.
