The xWatch camera is not designed to be repaired in the
field. If it is determined that the problem is caused by
an electronic defect, the device must be returned to the
factory for repair.
NOTE
It is highly recommended that spare modules
be kept on hand for field replacement to ensure
continuous protection.

CautIon
Power must not be applied to the device while
opening the housing or while plugging in or
removing the module.
Disassemble the enclosure by turning the housing

illustration of the xWatch assembly.
Remove the existing camera module from the

camera module on the terminal block.
Check the housing O-rings and service as required

(see Maintenance section of this manual for details).
Re-assemble the device housing.
Check camera sighting and ensure that the mounting

ClEAnIng
The xWatch camera requires no periodic calibration or
servicing. However, the camera lens should be cleaned
on a regular basis.
Clean the camera lens using a clean cloth or tissue
and Det-Tronics window cleaning solution (part number
001680-001). If a stronger solution is needed, isopropyl
alcohol may be used.
o-rIngs
Rubber O-rings are used on the xWatch housing to ensure
the watertight integrity of the device. It is imperative that
these O-rings be properly installed and in good condition.
Failure to properly maintain these rings can allow water to
enter the housing and cause premature failure.
When the housing cover is removed, the O-rings should
be inspected for breaks, cracks, or dryness. If cracks
are visible, the O-ring should be replaced. If they feel
dry to the touch, a thin coating of lubricant should be
applied. When re-installing the O-rings, be sure that they
are properly seated in the groove on the housing.
A coating of lubricant should also be applied to the
threads on the housing before reassembly. This will both
lubricate the threads and help to prevent moisture from
entering the housing.
CautIon
O-rings should be lubricated with a silicone-free
grease (such as p/n 005003-001 available from
Det-Tronics). If catalytic type combustible gas
sensors are being used anywhere on the premises,
silicone based lubricants should never be used,
since inadvertent use of a silicone lubricant on
or near the combustible gas sensor will cause
irreversible damage to the sensing element.
