Using solvents to clean the optical components
When using solvents to clean the optical components, ensure the solvent used is
compatible with the sealing material of the sensors.

1
Remove the filter. Instructions,
see “Cleaning the filter”, page 88
2
Use a jet of clean air to clean loose particles off the mirror (instrument air or better).
Continue with step 3 when the optics are still contaminated.
3
Tip distilled water with soap mixed in onto the mirror and let it work.
4
Then rinse with distilled water.
5
Dry with compressed air (instrument air or better quality).
6
If the surface is still contaminated, tip pure ethanol or isopropanol onto the surfaces. Let
the chemicals work in for maximum 15 minutes.
NOTICE:
SICK recommends cleaning the optical components when the signal
intensity is below 80%.
NOTICE:
Do not damage the lens
The lens is located in a ø 11.5 mm cavity and is hard to reach. (See arrow in
