6. Maintenance
Stains on lidar's cover lens, such as dirt, fingerprints, and oil will negatively affect point cloud data quality. Please clean the cover lens in time.
•
Turn OFF the power source before cleaning.
•
To avoid damaging the optical coating, do NOT apply significant pressure when wiping the cover lens.
Only the stained area of the cover lens needs to be cleaned.
Perform the following steps to remove the stains:
1. Thoroughly wash your hands or wear a pair of powder-free PVC gloves. Hold the metal lid and base of the lidar to avoid touching the cover lens
directly.
2. To remove dust, blow dry air onto the cover lens, or use a clean piece of lint-free wipe or soft sponge to lightly brush across the dusty area.
If persistent stains exist, perform the following steps; otherwise, the cleaning is done.
3. Add warm, neutral solvent into a spray bottle and spray the cover lens.
Solvent type Mild soap solution
Maximum two tablespoons of soap in 1 quart (1 liter) of water.
Solvent temperature 20 to 25℃
4. When the stains have loosened, dip a piece of lint-free wipe or soft sponge into the solvent made in Step 3, and gently wipe the cover lens back
and forth along its surface.
5. Should another cleaning agent be applied to remove certain stains, repeat Steps 3 and 4.
6. Spray the cover lens with clean water, and gently wipe off the remaining liquid with another piece of lint-free wipe or soft sponge.
