AV7000 LINEAR CAMERA
This procedure is recommended only if it is noticed that the environment is dirty
enough that deposits are appearing on the deflection mirrors. The window cleaning
procedure should be performed without removing the camera from the mounting struc
-
ture.
1. Switch off the conveyor.
2. Switch off the camera system.
3. Follow the exterior cleaning procedure before cleaning the window.
4. Check the window surface for any dust, dirt, or smudges. If the window needs to
be cleaned, p
roceed to Step 5.
5. Make a solution of seven parts denatured alcohol and three parts water. (Many
o
ver-the-counter solutions will leave deposits/smudges that can affect perfor-
mance.)
6. Apply the cleaning solution to a lint-free cotton cloth.
7. Apply the cloth with cleaning solution to the camera and illumination window.
8. Remove any streaks or remaining moisture from the window with a dry, soft, lint-
fr
ee cloth or lens paper.
9. Verify camera operation.
Cleaning the Deflection Mirror
This procedure is recommended only if it is noticed that the environment is dirty
enough that HEAVY deposits are appearing on the deflection mirrors. The cleaning pro-
cedure should be performed without removing the mirror from the mounting structure.
NOTE: Shut down the camera system before performing this maintenance
task. Do not stare into the camera’s window at the LED light. Avoid direct
eye exposure. The LED light level does not constitute a health hazard, how-
ever staring at the LED light for prolonged periods could result in eye dam-
age.
Use care when cleaning the deflection mirror to assure that the alignment
with the camera is not altered. Never apply cleaning solution directly to the
mirror. Always apply the solution to a cloth, and then the cloth to the mir-
ror. It is a good habit to pre-mark the mirror position, so if it does move it
can be returned to the original position.
