APPENDIX E. DUST FILTER ATTACHING
To improve sensor operation reliability, dust filter should be attached to sensor surfaces. For
sensor housing types “1” and “3”, only top filter (ESAT.717100.001; see Fig. 20) should be applied.
For housing
type “2” side filter (ESAT.717100.002; see Fig. 21) should be attached as well. Filters
material is fluoroplastic
membrane “Vladipor MFFC TC 6-55-221-1413-2004”. On the filter
backside
there is an adhesive layer “3M Double Linered Laminating Adhesive 7952” in hatched
areas in Fig. 20 and Fig. 21.

Perform the following steps to attach dust filter:
Perform this work in a well-illuminated and well-ventilated area.
Once a dust filter is attached to sensor surface, perform zeroing procedure
(see Appendix D.1 for details).
1. Degrease surface of the up
per side of sensor. For housing type “2”, perform the same
operation on the side surface.
2. Extract filter from the packing and remove its substrate with tweezers.
3. Align the filter exactly to the center of the upper side of sensor with tweezers and then
press on it. For
housing type “2” perform the same operation on the side surface.
