Maintenance and Care
Trigno Sensors
Trigno sensor are encased in a sealed polycarbonate enclosure. The following
points should be kept in mind when handling the sensors.
•
All sensors should be visually inspected before each use to ensure that
no mechanical deterioration has occurred.
•
The sensors can be cleaned with isopropyl alcohol swabs. Ensure that
the sensor contacts remain clean at all times for proper operation.
•
While the sensors are sealed and are water-resistant, these should
never be completely submerged in any liquid.
•
The sensor contacts are made of pure silver and are quite soft. Care
should be taken to preserve the integrity of these contacts. Do not
scrape or dent these contacts.
Handle the sensors with care: do not drop them on the ground or
step on them.
Do not submerge the sensors in any liquid under any circumstance.
Do not pull the cable as this will result in damage.
The sensors contain sensitive electronic circuitry. Static discharges
and intense electro-magnetic fields should be avoided to prevent the
risk of irreparable damage to the sensors.
