Introduction
View a live image with the camera after blowing. If debris is still present, repeat
the process until it is determined that the particulate cannot be dislodged. If
this is the case, proceed to the contact cleaning technique.
Contact cleaning
Only use this method if the above air cleaning method does not sufficiently
clean the surface. Use 99% pure isopropyl alcohol and clean cotton swabs. Wet
the swab in the alcohol. Quickly wipe the optics in a single stroke. Prolonged
exposure of alcohol on the swab can cause the swab glue to loosen and transfer
to the optic glass. Do not reuse the same swab. Repeat this process until the
debris is removed. If this process fails to remove the debris, contact Allied
Vision.
Caution

Do not exceed 6 bar (90 psi). If using canned air, approxi-
mately ~ 4.8 bar (70 psi) when full, do not shake or tilt the
can, as extreme changes in temperature due to sudden cold
air can crack the optic glass.
