Before using the nylon brush to clean the Contact Pins, please make sure the brush
is clean. If you are not sure, please use the blower to blow the brush from each
side for at least 5 times.
Use the air blower to blow the surface around the RTCA Contact Pins 96 to remove

Decontamination of RTCA Contact Pins 96
Remove RTCA Protector Shield 96 from the RTCA SP Station. Clean the RTCA Contact
Pins 96 with the brush and use the rubber dust blower (from RTCA Cleaning Kit) to
remove any dust particles from the Contact Pins, following the protocol described in
this section.
Spray 80% ethanol with a spraying bottle on all Contact Pins, two times on each
location. Make sure that all the Contact Pins are covered with ethanol. The total
volume of ethanol for spraying the two columns of Contact Pins should not
exceed 3 ml.
Wait at least 30 minutes at room temperature for the ethanol to evaporate and let the
RTCA Contact Pins 96 dry completely.
Since the brush is used for cleaning the dust particles from the Contact Pins,
the brush should also be decontaminated with ethanol. Fill a container with 80%
ethanol. Then soak the brush in the container for 5 minutes. Take the brush out,
shake the excess ethanol from the bristles and wait for the brush to dry.
