Maintenance
If the reading window is scratched or damaged (cracked, broken), it must be replaced.
Please contact the SICK Service.
Cleaning the housing
In order to ensure sufficient cooling for the CLX, make sure that the housing is always clean.
¾
Use a soft brush to free the housing from dust.
¾
If necessary, clean the LEDs on the rear of the device.
7.2.2
Cleaning other optical surfaces
If an external reading pulse generator and/or object-height detection sensors are used
(e.g. photoelectric reflex switches), further sensors with optical effective surfaces can be in-
stalled. Soiling of these surfaces can cause incorrect switching behaviour.
¾
In order to prevent incorrect switching behaviour, remove soiling from the optical effec-
tive surfaces of the external sensors.
