Maintenance
Tether Re-termination
Tether termination is a specialized service beyond the scope of this manual. Contact Eddyfi Technologies
if the tether is damaged or requires re-termination.
Rinsing and Cleaning
After every mission check to see if the camera needs cleaning.
1. If the system has been used in salt water, thoroughly rinse the camera with fresh water prior to
being stored away. Accelerated corrosion will result if the inspection system is not rinsed
properly. Pay close attention to rinsing and cleaning the camera window, LED lights dome and
the spaces between moving parts.
2. Use an open hose or tap at regular water line pressure for rinsing. Do not pressure wash the
equipment
– water will be forced into the camera at these high pressures.
3. Avoid scratching the camera port. Use glass cleaner and a soft cloth to clean the port.
Periodically:
1. Use a damp cloth or spray cleaner for the power supply / controller box. The box must never be
sprayed down or immersed in water. Unplug the controller before cleaning.
2. For general cleaning of the camera, use a mild detergent.
