If the reading window is scratched or damaged (cracked, broken), it must be replaced.
Please contact the SICK Service.
8.2.2 Cleaning the housing
¾ Use a soft cloth to free the housing of dust.
¾ If necessary, also clean the LEDs on the housing.
8.3 Cleaning further optical effective surfaces
Depending on the reading system equipment, additional external sensors with optical effec-
tive surfaces can be installed (e.g. photoelectric reflex switch for external reading pulsing).
Soiling of these sensors can cause incorrect switching behaviour.
¾ In order to prevent incorrect switching behaviour, remove soiling from the optical effec-
tive surfaces of the external sensors.
