Maintenance

The radar device requires no maintenance or cleaning under normal operating conditions,
although periodic inspection and retightening of the attachment hardware may be required as
the gasket material will relax over time (dependant upon process conditions).
Under severe operating conditions, the antenna may require periodic cleaning. If cleaning
becomes necessary:
1) Note the antenna material and the process medium, and select a cleaning solution that
will not react adversely with either.
2) Remove the device from service and wipe the antenna clean using a cloth and suitable
cleaning solution.
