Cleaning the Sensor

You need to regularly clean the sensor for proper performance.

Wash the sensor with fresh water and dry it before you charge or store it.

Regularly check that the sensor is clean. If not:
  • Wash away mud or debris with warm water.
  • Use Isopropyl alcohol to clean the end cap and transducer. Use a steel wool pencil to clean the shoulder bolts, and very fine sandpaper (180 grit) to clean between them.
    Notice: Do not use highly abrasive materials or jet wash.
    Notice: Special care should be taken with sensors and components sensitive to mechanical shock or contamination.
Regularly clean the EM log pins with Isopropyl alcohol or with a Scotch-Brite scouring pad. You can also use a fiberglass cleaning pen supplied with the sensor to clean them:
