SeCtion 11 - Maintenance & troubleshooting
11.1 GenerAl
The 67 Series are designed to give optimum performance with minimum maintenance. It is only
necessary to keep the external surfaces clean and free from dust. The sample area should always be
kept clean and any accidental spillage should be wiped away immediately.
To give added protection when not in use, the instrument should be disconnected from the mains
supply and covered with the optional dust cover.
For longer-term storage or re-shipment it is recommended that the instrument should be returned to
the original packing case.
Cleaning
note: Prior to using any cleaning or decontamination solution, except those recommended below, the
user should contact the dealer or manufacturer for advice/confirmation that the proposed method of
cleaning will not damage the instrument.
Under no circumstances should a compressed air canister be used to clean the interior surfaces of
the instrument since the resultant rapid cooling can cause damage to fragile optical components.
Casework
Do not use aggressive solvents such as acetone or abrasive cleaners for cleaning the instrument
surfaces.
For general cleaning the use of a damp cloth should be sufficient. For more thorough cleaning it is
possible to use a mild detergent solution, iso-propyl alcohol (a small amount on a cloth) or a dilute
solution of Decon 90
® .
touch Screen
The screen can be cleaned using a standard proprietary computer screen cleaner.
note: The monochromator is a non-serviceable unit and no attempt should be made to repair this
item. Failure to observe this recommendation will result in the loss of any Warranty Claim on this

the manufacturer or your local dealer be contacted immediately for advice.
