Do not use any ammonia or any cleaners containing ammonia to clean the

11.4. Replacing the Fiber Optic Cable
Fiber cable assemblies for LASER sighting option are not field
"replaceable" without blackbody recalibration! As such, spare LASER
sighting fiber cable assemblies are not available!
If the fiber optic cable ever needs to be removed or replaced, it can be removed from both the
optical head and electronics enclosure without demounting them from their brackets.
Please be aware of the following when removing or installing cables:

Make sure cable connectors at the sensing head and electronics enclosure are clean
before removing and/or replacing the fiber optic cable.

Replacement fiber optic cables of the same length can be recalibrated in the field by
using the supplied Fiber Replacement Calibration software. Replacement fiber optic
cables of different lengths require recalibration at the factory, or at a factory-authorized
service center. Contact your sales representative for details.
Always clean the area around the fiber optic cable connectors before disconnecting. If any
contaminants get into the open connectors, the sensor’s accuracy will be compromised. After
removing the cable, or before installing a new cable, the ends must be protected at all times
until connected to the sensing head and electronics enclosure. Cables are shipped with
protective end caps. Always save these caps for use whenever the fiber optic cable must be
disconnected. Any contamination to the fiber optic cable ends will degrade performance. To
replace the fiber optic cable, you will need to disconnect it from both the optical head and the
electronics enclosure. The following instructions will guide you through the process.
11.4.1. Removing the Fiber Optic Cable
11.4.1.1. Removing the Fiber Optic Cable from the Optical Head
Complete the following steps to disconnect the fiber optic cable from the optical head:
1. Thoroughly clean the area around the optical head.
2.
Insert a 1.3 mm (0.050”) hex wrench into the optical head hex screw and turn counter
clockwise until the cable is loose.
3. Draw the fiber optic cable out of the optical head.
4.
Important
– If you plan to reconnect the same cable, immediately cover the end with
a slip-on end cap to prevent contamination. Do not use any adhesive tape over the
cable end.
