3. Clean the camera lens.
• Rinse the lens with fresh water to remove all dirt particles and salt deposits, and
allow to dry naturally.
• If any spots or smears remain, very gently wipe the lens window with a clean
microfibre cloth or soft cotton cloth.
• If necessary, use isopropyl alcohol (IPA) or a mild detergent to remove any
remaining spots or marks.
Inspecting the thermal camera
Routinely inspect the camera and its mounting surface to ensure that it is installed
securely, that the coated surfaces are intact, and that there are no signs of corrosion.
When the camera is powered off, grasp it firmly at the base and confirm it is rigid and
secure. Then hold the camera above the base and confirm it will rotate freely and
without noticeable wobble or looseness around the pan bearing.
Water ingress
Water ingress disclaimer
Although the waterproof rating capacity of this product meets the stated IPX standard
(refer to the product’s
Technical Specification ), water intrusion and subsequent equipment
failure may occur if the product is subjected to commercial high-pressure washing. FLIR
will not warrant products subjected to high-pressure washing.
Disclaimer
FLIR does not warrant that this product is error-free or that it is compatible with
products manufactured by any person or entity other than FLIR .
FLIR is not responsible for damages or injuries caused by your use or inability to use
the product, by the interaction of the product with products manufactured by others, or
by errors in information utilized by the product supplied by third parties.
EMC installation guidelines
FLIR equipment and accessories conform to the appropriate Electromagnetic Compatibility
(EMC) regulations, to minimize electromagnetic interference between equipment and
minimize the effect such interference could have on the performance of your system
Correct installation is required to ensure that EMC performance is not compromised.
Note: In areas of extreme EMC interference, some slight interference may be noticed
on the product. Where this occurs the product and the source of the interference
should be separated by a greater distance.
For optimum EMC performance we recommend that wherever possible:
• FLIR equipment and cables connected to it are:
– At least 1 m (3 ft) from any equipment transmitting or cables carrying radio signals
e.g. VHF radios, cables and antennas. In the case of SSB radios, the distance
should be increased to 7 ft (2 m).
– More than 2 m (7 ft) from the path of a radar beam. A radar beam can normally
be assumed to spread 20 degrees above and below the radiating element.
• The product is supplied from a separate battery from that used for engine start. This
is important to prevent erratic behavior and data loss which can occur if the engine
start does not have a separate battery.
• FLIR specified cables are used.
• Cables are not cut or extended, unless doing so is detailed in the installation manual.
