Camera Cleaning
Power down the camera prior to performing any camera cleaning operation.
Use a soft cloth moistened with a small amount of isopropyl alcohol to clean the outside of the camera
enclosure or the power supply housing.
If the protective window of the focal plane array requires cleaning, the following steps are recommended:
1.
With the focal plane array mounted in the camera, use clean, dry compressed air to blow loose
particles off the window. This step alone is often sufficient to clean the window
. Do not use
compressed air gas canisters. They may spray cold fluid that can thermally shock the
window.
2.
Moisten a lint-free lens cleaning paper with isopropyl alcohol and carefully wipe the surface of
the window by dragging the moistened paper from one edge of the window to the other in a single
motion. The paper may need to be folded so that it does not contact any surface other than the
glass. Use the paper only once and wipe in one direction across the window surface. If the surface
is still not clean, repeat this step as necessary, always wiping in the same direction using a new
piece of moistened cleaning paper until the window is clean. It is important to use isopropyl
alcohol because it acts as a lubricant when wiping the surface of the window.
