Predator Radar Installation Manual V2.1.18.1

24 Important - Care of Painted Surfaces

The powder coating applied to the Predator-HD external housing is recognised as being in the forefront for 

quality and finish. However, in order to preserve the aesthetic finish it is recommended that the coating is 

regularly cleaned.

Regular cleaning on a maximum three month interval, using warm and mild detergent must be undertaken. 

Abrasive cleaners including strong solvent must NOT be used at any time.

In areas where the coating may come in contact with concentrated atmospheric pollutants [marine, chemical 

and especially bird droppings] it would be prudent to clean more frequently e.g. monthly.

Full documentation of the cleaning schedule MUST be maintained to ensure that a warranty claim can be 

considered.

If damage occurs to the coating (e.g. the Predator-HD is dropped, scrapped etc.), repairs MUST be carried out 

immediately.

When the Predator-HD is installed in areas where there is a high risk of damage from birds or their droppings, 

additional precautions and measures should be used to keep the birds away from the Predator-HD e.g. fit anti-

bird spikes.

25 Storage and Handling

Predators should be handled with care and must not be dropped. When Predators are inside the transit 

packaging which is used for despatch from the factory, they should not be stacked to a height of more than two 

Predators.

When Predators are being stored before installation they should be kept in the transit packaging and located in 

a dry indoor environment preferably between 1°C and 35°C which is dry and dust free. Humidity should such 

that water vapour is non-condensing. Predators can be allowed to be outside this range for short periods of time 

(24 hours maximum) for transport (e.g. in aircraft or vans) but must never be allowed to be outside the normal 

operating temperature range of -40°C to +60°C even during storage.

Before installation the Predator should be clean and dry. (If necessary it should be cleaned and dried taking 

care that the glass is not scratched).
