Maintenance
Clean the Instrument and Crystal
Before cleaning theThermo Scientific Nicolet Summit OA spectrometer, turn it off and disconnect the
power supply.
Clean the Spectrometer
Gently clean the exterior of the instrument with a soft, clean cloth and a mild solvent, such as Windex.
Spray the cloth and wipe only the outside, painted surface. Take care to avoid getting solvent on the
electronics on the back of the instrument.
Dust can collect on the electronics enclosure on the back of the instrument and can potentially
interfere with heat dissipation, which may reduce the lifetime of the electronic components.
To remove dust from the back of the instrument, use compressed air to blow the dust off. Do not use
any liquid when removing dust from the back of the spectrometer.
CAUTION
Avoid shock hazard. To avoid shock hazard, do not allow liquid to run
into the power supply or the back of the instrument.
NOTICE
Do not use harsh detergents, solvents, chemicals, or abrasives; these can damage the finish.
