MAINTENANCE
CLEANING
The optical system of the WaterLink Spin Touch must be kept clean and
dry for optimal performance. Dry the disk with a lint-free wipe before placing it into
the chamber to avoid introducing moisture. For best results, store the instrument
in an area that is dry and free from aggressive chemical vapors. Clean the exterior
housing with a damp, lint-free cloth. Do not allow water to enter the light chamber
or any other parts of the meter. To clean the light chamber and optic lenses, point a
can of compressed air into the light chamber and the lid and blow the pressurized air
into the light chamber and lid. Focus the pressurized air around the LEDs which are
the small round lenses positioned at 2:00, 4:00, 6:00, 8:00, 10:00 and 12:00 in the
lid. The photodiodes are located on the bottom of the chamber around the hub. This
area must be kept clean and dry. Use a cotton swab dampened with Windex
®
window
cleaner to gently swab the LED and photodiode lenses. Do not use alcohol; it will
leave a thin residue over the optics when dry.
Remove smudges due to routine use from the touchscreen with the Cloth Wipe
(Code 3580-WIPE). Use a cloth dampened with alcohol for more thorough cleaning
when necessary. Do not use Windex window cleaner, or similar cleaners, on the
touchscreen.
