Ericsson FSU 995 F - FSU 995 FA Maintenance Schedule

Maintenance - Maintenance time table
Mirror one (cleaning)
D
Because of the position of the mirrors in the FSU 995 FA there
is a tendency for mirror one (positioned at a 45
o
angle) to
become dirty with build-up in the same way the electrodes
do. This build-up manifests itself as a gradual darkening of
the image in the lower view, as well as in the contraction of
the hot image light intensity curves for this same view. YOU
SHOULD NOT TRY TO CLEAN THE MIRROR YOURSELF, but
rather should deliver the splicer to an authorized Ericsson
representative for cleaning.
