Cleaning and Handling
Cognex makes the following recommendations for cleaning your 3D-A5000 sensor.
To clean the outside of the 3D sensor housing, use a small amount of mild detergent cleaner or isopropyl alcohol on a
cleaning cloth. Do not pour the cleaner directly onto the 3D sensor housing.
CAUTION: Do not attempt to clean any Cognex product with harsh or corrosive solvents, including lye, methyl ethyl
ketone (MEK) or gasoline.
To remove dust from the camera windows, use a pressurized air duster. The air must be free of oil, moisture or other
contaminants that could remain on the windows. To clean the window, use a small amount of isopropyl alcohol on a
cleaning cloth and gently clean the window surface. Do not scratch the windows. Do not pour the alcohol directly on the
windows.
