For all metal or plastic parts it is strictly forbidden to use substances that are
- abrasive,
- corrosive,
- acids,
- substances containing chlorine or chloride ions, phosphorous or phosphorous ions,
- detergents with Trilene base, petrol, white spirit, chlorine or similar.
Do not use detergents-disinfectants containing the following substances to clean plastic parts:
- Ammonium Hydroxide
- Sodium Hydroxide
- Hydrogen peroxide
- Ammonium Chloride
- Methylene chloride
- Methyl alcohol
- Acids and corrosive substances of all kinds.
It is forbidden to directly spray any chemical substance on the device.
It is forbidden the use of wet wipes without rinsing.
Faro tested and suggests the use of the following disinfectants, for plastic parts and metal parts:

6.1
CLEANING OF THE REFLECTING PARABOLAS
Cleaning must be carried out using a soft cloth in cotton or absorbent cotton with ethyl alcohol.
Water-alcohol based disinfectants are suitable with 70% isopropyl alcohol or ethanol.
Caution - potential damage or wear on the parabolas
Never spray detergent directly on the parabolas.
Cleaning operations on the parabolas must be carried out wearing gloves, to avoid leaving fingerprints on the surfaces.
Never use detergents containing surfactants or water-repellents that depositing can leave streaks. Slight streaking will not
prejudice the quality of the light.
Products differing from those suggested could damage the parabolas.
If in doubt, contact FARO customer care.
