Cleaning Instructions for this
Device
This Cleaning Information applies to a number of different types of
Optical Equipment.
Sections of particularly relevance to the following devices are cross-
referenced below.
81000xA Optical Head Adapters
When using optical head adapters, periodically inspect the optical
head's front window (see “How to clean connector adapters” on
page 98 for cleaning procedures). Dust and metal particles can be
propelled through the adapter's pinhole while inserting the connector
ferrule into the receptacle. These dirt particles collect on the head's
front window and, if not removed, can lead to incorrect measurement
results.
8162xx Optical Power Heads
Periodically inspect the optical head's front window for dust and other
particles (see “How to clean instruments with an optical glass plate”
on page 101 for cleaning procedures). These can be propelled through
the optical head adapter's pinhole while inserting a connector ferrule
into the receptacle. Particles on the optical head's front window can
significantly impair measurement results.
