Cleaning the infra-red filter  (Standard and TE-Cooled Cameras) 

The  infra-red  filter  is  visible  when  the  lens  is  removed,  mounted  inside  the  lens 
mounting  ring.  This  filter blocks  invisible,  near-infra-red  light  from  reaching  the  CCD 
sensor. This is desirable in most applications where the camera is imaging in the visible 
spectrum. 
 

7.1.4.1.

 

What must I do before cleaning the infra-red filter? 

Do not remove the filter from the camera. 
 
First,  remove  the  lens  and  carefully  examine  the  filter  in  a  clean  location 
under  a  strong,  direct  light.  Try  to  determine  if  the  contaminants  are  a  few 
dust particles, oily smudge (such as fingerprints) or both. 
 

7.1.4.2.

 

What if the contamination is only a few dust particles? 

Use a CLEAN, DRY (preferably brand-new), camel hair lens cleaning brush 
(such  as those  used by  photographers) to  gently  wipe the particles off  of the 
filter.  
 

7.1.4.3.

 

What if the contamination includes a smudge? 

The  filter  is  a  high-quality,  coated  optical  component  and  should  be  treated 
with extreme care. Scratches, chemical contamination, or other damage due to 
improper cleaning may void the warranty. 

 

 

Remove the camera from the optical assembly and bring the camera to a clean, 
dry  location  where  it  is  safe  to  use  flammable  solvents  (please  see  caution 
below)  

 

 

Carefully  loosen  the  lens  mount  lock  ring  using  the  supplied  DVC  lock  ring 
wrench.  

 

 

Orient  the  camera  so  that  the  lens  mount  is  pointing  downward  and  carefully 
unscrew the lens mounting ring and integral filter.  

 

 

Place  the  camera  face  down  on  a  clean,  dry  surface  to  prevent  particles  from 
accumulating on the CCD faceplate. 

 

 

Once the filter is removed, Use a CLEAN, DRY (preferably brand-new), camel 
hair  lens  cleaning  brush  (such  as  those  used  by  photographers)  to  gently  wipe 
the particles off of the filter.  

 

 

Re-examine  the  filter  after  removing  the  dust.  If  a  smudge  is  still  visible, 
proceed by dipping a clean, lint-free cotton swab in ethyl or isopropyl alcohol. 
The swab should be saturated, but not dripping. 

 

 

Carefully  draw  the  swab  once  across  the  surface,  then  rotate  the  swab  180 
degrees to expose the fresh surface and draw it across the filter surface again. Be 
careful not to pool alcohol on the glass surface.  

 

 

Re-examine once again and repeat the process once, if necessary.
