MAINTENANCE
CLEANING
The optical system of the API AQUASPIN must be kept clean and dry for optimal
performance. Dry the disk with a lint-free wipe before placing it in the chamber to
avoid introducing moisture. For best results, store the instrument in an area that is
dry and free from aggressive chemical vapors. Clean the exterior housing with a
damp, lint-free cloth. Do not allow water to enter the light chamber or any other
parts of the meter. To clean the light chamber and optic lenses, point a can of
compressed air into the light chamber and the lid and blow the pressurized air
into the light chamber and lid. Focus the pressurized air around the LEDs which
are the small round lenses positioned at 2:00, 4:00, 6:00, 8:00, 10:00 and 12:00 in the
lid. The photodiodes are located on the bottom of the chamber around the hub.
This area must be kept clean and dry. Use a cotton swab dampened with streak-
free window cleaner to gently swab the LED and photodiode lenses. Do not use
alcohol; it will leave a thin residue over the optics when dry.
Remove smudges due to routine use from the touchscreen with the Cloth Wipe
(Code 3580-WIPE-GEN). Use a cloth dampened with alcohol for more thorough
cleaning when necessary. Do not use streak-free window cleaner, or similar
cleaners, on the touchscreen.
REPAIRS
Should it be necessary to return the meter for repair or servicing, pack the meter
carefully in a suitable container with adequate packing material. A return
authorization number must be obtained from LaMotte Company by calling 800-
344-3100, ext. 3 (US only) or 410-778-3100, ext. 3, faxing 410-778-6394, or emailing
[email protected]. Often a problem can be resolved over the phone
or by email. If a return of the meter is necessary, attach a letter with the return
authorization number, meter serial number, a brief description of problem and
contact information including phone and FAX numbers to the shipping carton. This
information will enable the service department to make the required repairs more
ef
fi
ciently.
