CC5MPX Digital Camera 

98 

9.  Maintenance 

9.1  Maintenance 

The CC5MPX requires little maintenance and no calibrations. Keeping the 

camera clean is important for the longevity of the camera and image and video 

quality.  

9.1.1  Lithium Battery 

The camera is equipped with a lithium thionyl chloride battery. The battery 

maintains the clock functionality for periods when power is not connected to 

the camera. The expected battery life is 10 years. It is recommended that the 

battery be replaced by a certified repair facility.  

9.1.2  Window and Lens Cleaning 

If the enclosure window or lens requires cleaning, it is very important that only 

a proper lens cloth or lens tissue be used. The use of inappropriate materials to 

clean the lens or window can permanently damage the surface and reduce the 

clarity. 

9.1.3  CC5MPX O-Rings 

There are thee O-rings that should be inspected on the camera. If any of the O-

rings look cracked or damaged, they require replacement. The locations of the 

three O-rings are shown in FIGURES 

9-1

 to 

9-3
