Maintenance
6.1
General maintenance
After use in seawater or other corrosive environments, rinse the unit and cables in fresh water.
Inspect the front port for dirt and dust and remove any surface dirt using compressed air. Clean the
front port glass using a mild detergent and a soft cloth. Do not use alcohol or solvent based cleaning
solutions because that could damage the pressure seals and glass coating. Avoid circular wiping
patterns.
Reapply silicon-based lubricant to the connector regularly as needed.
MacArtney Underwater Technology recommends rinsing Subconn® connectors in isopropyl alcohol
after use and grease with Molykote 44 Medium with a thin layer that covers the face of the female
connector and fills down 1/10 of the sockets before mating. Mate the connector, then un-mate it to
inspect that all rubber surfaces are lubricated before finally mating it again. Check the Handling
instructions (07-2013) from MacArtney for a detail description.
6.2
Service and Repair
This product contains no user serviceable parts. Service and modifications are to be carried out by
Imenco personnel or by qualified third party after appointment. Failure to comply may result in
personal injury, damage to equipment and loss of warranty.
If the Orca II camera seems to be not working properly, please try to speed up the service that
Imenco can provide by describing the problem in specific terms from the person who have first
handed observed the fault. Remember if necessary, to describe the system where the camera is
installed since the root cause sometimes can originate outside a failing part in an advanced system.
