The iKon-L HF model (DF model code) features fibre optic plate (FOP) coupling to the CCD sensor, and
scintillator options for indirect X-ray detection.

•
Camera is susceptible to shock damage. Protective plate should always be fitted when camera is not in use.
•
Other fibre optic surfaces can be coupled to the camera FOP, both surfaces must be free of contamination to
avoid damage.
•
Dust or contamination can be removed by drop and drag optical cleaning technique. For cleaning use lens
tissue with a suitable solvent e.g. spectroscopic grade solvent.
•
Do not use abrasives, corrosive solvents, avoid impact or point contact.
•
For models that have the beryllium foil as an accessory: Beryllium foil is very brittle in nature therefore extreme
care should be taken to avoid shock damage. If the foil is broken there is a health risk. Please contact Andor for
further information if required
