Camera cleaning instructions

3. Wipe the glass surface with a

spiral motion from the center

to the rim. Normally, several

spiral wipes are recommended.

Wipe only on glass avoiding

contact to metal surfaces,

because microscopic dirt could

be released and could cause

scratches on the glass.

4. When you've finished cleaning,

examine the surface in a strong

light. Take an out-of-focus

picture of a flat, illuminated

surface to see if any dirt or dust

remains.

5. If dust spots remain, repeat

this procedure using new clean

lens tissue (as described

above).

6. If you want to clean your camera with compressed air despite of all the

warnings:

7. Gently blow the impurities off with dust-filtered, oil-free air (< 1 bar).

Using ionized air helps to remove any dirt stuck to the optical component

because of static electricity.

Caution



• Never wipe lenses with dry swabs or tissue—this causes

scratches.

• Do not use any disposable cotton cosmetic swabs; they

may contain contaminants.

Caution



• Use an air blower/compressed air only if you are familiar

with cleaning a camera with this instrument.

• Compressed air may push dust into cameras and

lenses. Therefore keep the pressure at a moderate

strength only:

– The pressure at the tube should be less than 1 bar (15

psi)

– Operating distance: 5–30 cm

Note



If dust spots remain after cleaning twice,

please contact your Allied Vision dealer.
