18. Maintenance & Trouble Shooting
18.1 Instrument Cleaning
When needed, wash the instrument only with mild soap and water on a damp cloth.
18.2 Verifying O-Ring Gaskets and Seals
The EPOCH 1000 Series contains seals that are used to protect the instrument’s
internal hardware from the environment. These include:
• Battery compartment cover seal
• Computer connection compartment door seal
• Membrane vent
• Main o-ring seals between the top and bottom half of the instrument and the
aluminum heat-sink band
• Phased array connection cover seal
• Conventional transducer gasket
Regularly clean and verify the state of the above seals and gaskets to ensure the
integrity of the hardware protection.
18.3 Protecting the Display
EPOCH 1000 Series instruments include a clear-plastic sheet protecting the
instrument’s display window. Leave the clear-plastic sheet in place when using the
instrument to continuously protect the display. Clear-plastic sheet replacements are
available from Olympus in packages of 10 (PN: EP1000-DP).
