6.2 Cleaning
MIQ modules and
control units
Clean components mounted in the open of gross contamination as
necessary. We recommend to clean the worst of the dirt on the MIQ
module and the area around it each time before opening in order to
prevent gross contamination from entering the open enclosure.
To clean the module, wipe the housing surfaces with a damp, lint-free
cloth. If compressed air is available on site, blow off the worst of the dirt
beforehand. Keep the housing closed while doing so.
Caution
Do not use high-pressure water blasters for cleaning (danger of
water penetration!).
Do not use aggressive cleaning agents such as alcohol, organic
solvents or chemical detergents.
These types of cleaning agent can attack the surface of the
housing.
IQ sensors The cleaning of the IQ sensors depends greatly on the respective
application. Instructions for this are given in the respective component
operating manual.
A valve module for the compressed air-operated cleaning of sensors is
available as an accessory.
