  • Instrument air

  • Lint-free cloth

  • Isopropyl alcohol (70 %)

Do not spray anything directly on the VDL200 or the measurement probes.

Do not use acetone as the cleaning agent as it may damage the plastic parts.

Do not use abrasive sponges or scrape the surface of the devices.

Do not immerse the devices in liquid.

  1. Blow instrument air on the VDL200 to remove any dust and loose debris.
    Do not blow directly into the filters of the measurement probes as that may damage the filter or the sensors underneath.
  2. Moisten some lint-free cloth with isopropyl alcohol (70 %).
  3. Wipe the data logger housing.
  4. Wipe the Ethernet cable and any probe connection cables.
    To avoid pulling on the cables, hold the cable while wiping along the length of it.
  5. To clean the measurement probes:
    1. Wipe the probe body and the probe nut that is holding it (if not connected by a cable).
    2. If the probe has a detachable filter, check it for contamination, and replace if necessary.

      Do not wipe the filter as that may block its pores and/or deposit residue on the filter.

      Keeping the filter clean is especially important for accurate humidity measurement. If the filter becomes contaminated, it is very likely to retain some moisture.
