Faro FOCUS - Preparing the Thermal Protection Covers; Storing and Transporting the Thermal Protective Covers; Transporting the Scanner to Working Site

Preparing the thermal protection covers
Thecoversmustbepre-cooledinsideaconventionalfreezerbeforeeachuse.Werecommendafreezerthat
canbringthetemperatureofthecoversdowntolessthan-15°C(5°F).Dependingontheinitial
temperatureofthecovers,thisprocesscantakeupto6hours.
NOTE: Formaximumflexibility,werecommendhavingasecondpre-cooledsetofcoversathand.This
allowsquickon-sitereplacementofcoversduringoperationandprovidesoptimumlong-term
performance.
Storing and transporting the thermal protective
covers
Duringtransporttothescanningsite,thecoversneedtobekeptcold(optimum:-15°C(5°F))by
transportingtheminahigh-qualitycoolerequippedwithicepacksorwithactiverefrigeration.

Transportingthescannertoworkingsite
FAROlaserscannersshouldalwaysbetransportedinthedesignatedhard-topcasethatisprovidedwiththe
device.Thisprovidesthebestpossibleprotectionagainstcontaminationaswellasprotectionagainst
heating-upbyexposuretowarmairordirectsunlight.Transportingthescannerinanair-conditioned
environmentof20°Cto25°C(68°Fto77°F)isideal.
