The xWatch Camera is not designed to be repaired in the

field. If it is determined that the problem is caused by

an electronic defect, the device must be returned to the

factory for repair.

NOTE

It is highly recommended that spare modules
be kept on hand for field replacement to ensure
continuous protection.

rEPLACIng ThE xWATCh CAMErA MODuLE

CautIon

Power must not be applied to the device while
opening the housing or while plugging in or
removing the module.

1. Disassemble the enclosure by turning the housing

cover counterclockwise. See Figure 5 for an

illustration of the xWatch Camera assembly.

2. Remove the existing camera module.
3. Using the index pin as a guide, install the new camera

module on the terminal block.

4. Check the housing O-rings and service as required

(see Maintenance section of this manual for details).

Re-assemble the device housing.

5. Check camera sighting and ensure that the mounting

bracket hardware is tight.

6. Clean the camera lens if required.

CLEAnIng
The camera requires no periodic calibration or servicing.

However, the camera lens should be cleaned on a regular

basis.

Clean the camera lens using a clean cloth or tissue

and Det-Tronics window cleaning solution (part number

001680-001). If a stronger solution is needed, isopropyl

alcohol may be used.

O-rIngs
Rubber O-rings are used on the Model X7050 Camera

housing to ensure the watertight integrity of the device.

It is imperative that these O-rings be properly installed

and in good condition. Failure to properly maintain these

rings can allow water to enter the housing and cause

premature failure.

When the housing cover is removed, the O-rings should

be inspected for breaks, cracks, or dryness. If cracks

are visible, the O-ring should be replaced. If they feel

dry to the touch, a thin coating of lubricant should be

applied. When re-installing the O-rings, be sure that they

are properly seated in the groove on the housing.

A coating of lubricant should also be applied to the

threads on the housing before reassembly. This will both

lubricate the threads and help to prevent moisture from

entering the housing.

CautIon

O-rings should be lubricated with a silicone-free
grease (such as p/n 005003-001 available from
Det-Tronics). If catalytic type combustible gas
sensors are being used anywhere on the premises,
silicone based lubricants should never be used,
since inadvertent use of a silicone lubricant on
or near the combustible gas sensor will cause
irreversible damage to the sensing element.
