Disassembly and storage
It is recommended that all equipment is dismantled for storage indoors. This also applies for combi-
fixing and ropes.
1. Cleanse the rope and flush with clean water to remove fouling. Check for wear points and
order new, if necessary.
2. Flush the aluminum parts with clean water. Apply grease on contact surfaces/threads to avoid
corrosion.
3. Flush, cleanse and dry the cables to remove any salt remains. Check for wear damages and
replace them, if necessary. Gently coil together for storage.
4. Clean the camera for fouling. It is recommended to send it for service after storage (to replace
gaskets and calibrate sensors).
5. Winch and PSU: clean to remove salt, check all connectors; consider
whether they should be
sent for service to ensure they are ready to be used again without any problems. Store
indoors to avoid intrusion of moisture the connectors and lid, when it does not hang in
intended position (connectors downwards).
6.
Fiber cable: if the fiber cable plug has been exposed to seawater during disconnecting, make
sure to rinse thoroughly in clean water immediately. Let it thoroughly dry before the lid is put
back on. Make sure the cable is not buckled when it is coiled, to avoid damage. Minimum coil
radius: 50 cm.
