Cleaning
Care operations that may be carried out by operating staff are limited to cleaning painted and glass
surfaces.
•
Before cleaning the instrument make sure the main power supply is disconnected.
•
Cleaning painted surfaces:
To do this, use a clean cloth that has been moistened in a mixture of water and some detergent; do
not use any solvent, however. Dry with a lint-free cloth.
•
Cleaning glass surfaces:
Glass surfaces that have become soiled or which are marked with fingerprints may be rubbed with a
clean optical cleaning cloth.
If soiling is persistent, dip the optical cleaning cloth into a mixture of distilled water and a small
quantity of detergent.
To complete cleaning, lightly breathe on the glass surface and rub it dry with a clean cloth. Lint or dust
is best removed with a clean brush.
•
Make sure that no cleaning liquid penetrates into the system.
9.3
Maintenance of the Liquid Cooling System
The scan module of your LSM 880 is connected to a liquid cooling system. Please consider that the
pH value of the cooling liquid changes over time.
To prevent corrosion in the cooler of the detection module, the pH value of the cooling liquid must be
checked at least once a year and the liquid replaced as necessary. Please observe the directions of the
cooling system manufacturer in the supplied operating manual.
If you have signed a service agreement with ZEISS, our service staff will perform the check as part of the
maintenance procedure.
The safety data sheet for the cooling liquid should also be observed.
