Maintenance and repair
Maintenance
Conformance to all applicable laws and regulations regarding maintenance must be ensured.
The sensor is largely maintenance-free.
However, periodically check the technical safety of the sensor system for damage to the housing.
The sensor should be checked occasionally for contamination. To clean the sensor, wipe the sensor with a dry or
damp soft cloth at regular intervals. This assures optimal functioning.
The housing is made of plastic. Therefore avoid contact with acetone and cleaning agents containing solvents.
Repairs
If safe operation is no longer possible, the sensor system must be disconnected and protected against accidental
use. In the event of repairs, send the device to Fuchs. Independent interventions and separate modifica-
tions are dangerous and will void the warranty and exclude the manufacturer from any liability.
