Cleaning EUI Connectors
Regular cleaning of EUI connectors will help maintain optimum
performance. There is no need to disassemble the unit.
To clean EUI connectors:
1. Remove the EUI from the instrument to expose the connector
baseplate and ferrule.
2. Moisten a 2.5 mm cleaning tip with one drop of isopropyl alcohol
(alcohol may leave traces if used abundantly).
3. Slowly insert the cleaning tip into the EUI adapter until it comes out on
the other side (a slow clockwise rotating movement may help).
4. Gently turn the cleaning tip one full turn, then continue to turn as you
withdraw it.
