6.1. Maintenance
The Ekinox does not require particular maintenance when operated in normal conditions. Nevertheless, if
you would like to maintain your sensor performance to the highest level, SBG Systems can provide a
maintenance service with regularly planned checkups and calibrations.
When used in harsh environments, please use damp clothes to clean the surface of the Enclosure.
Although not recommended, it is possible to use the Ekinox in salt water environments. In such
environments, the Ekinox enclosure must be rinsed with clear water to remove any long term presence of
salt on the enclosure.
