Cleaning of the antenna
The antenna can get contaminated, depending on the application. The emission and reception of
microwaves can thus eventually be hindered. The degree of contamination leading to an error
depends on the medium and the reflectivity, mainly determined by the dielectric constant er. If the
medium tends to cause contamination and deposits, cleaning on a regular basis is
recommended. Care has to be taken not to damage the antenna in the process of a mechanical
or hose-down cleaning (eventually connection for cleaning liquid). The material compatibility has
to be considered if cleaning agents are used!
The maximum permitted temperature at the flange should not be exceeded.
