Maintenance, Repair, and Fuses
8.1 Maintenance and Repair
The instrument should not need regular maintenance by the user. If necessary the display, housing, and front panel can be
cleaned using a soft cloth moistened with normal, mild glass cleaner. Do not use any chemical solvents or harsh cleaners on
the display. Do not spray any cleaning solutions directly onto any part of the unit.
The instrument does not contain any modules that can be repaired by the user. If a malfunction occurs, please contact Thorlabs
Technical Support and arrangements will be made to investigate the problem. Do not remove the cover. There are no user
serviceable components inside.
Optical patch cords used to connect to the front panel of the instrument should have their end faces cleaned every time a new
connection is made. The end faces of the internal fiber connectors can easily be damaged by the use of dirty fiber ends. If
damage occurs, the instrument will need to be sent back for repair. We suggest using a fiber end-face cleaning product such as
the Thorlabs FCC-7020 shown below. Alternatively, a lint-free cloth moistened with isopropyl alcohol or methanol can be used.
Never use acetone.
The optical connectors on the front panel may be cleaned using a 2.5 mm bulkhead cleaner such as the Thorlabs FBC1. This
allows the user to clean the fiber end-face without removing it from the internal bulkhead adapter.
