8.1 Maintenance during operation
8.1.1 Cleaning the optics cover
The LMS1xx is largely maintenance-free. The optics cover on the LMS1xx should however
be cleaned regularly and if it is contaminated.
Do not use aggressive detergents.
Do not use abrasive cleaning agents.
Important Static charges can cause dust particles to be attracted to the optics cover.
You can diminish this effect by using the anti-static plastic cleaner (SICK part no. 5600006)
and the SICK lens cloth (part no. 4003353) (see
section 11.1.1 “Consumables” on
page 104).
How to clean the optics cover:
1. Use a clean and soft brush to remove dust from the optics cover.
2. Wipe the view window of the optics cover with a clean and damp cloth.
8.2 Exchanging an LMS1xx
Incorrect or damaged LMS1xx have to removed and reclaped with either new or repaired
LMS1xx of the same type.
As all external cable connections end in the system connector or in the round plug-in
connectors, it is not necessary to re-install the device electrically on a device replacement.
The replacement unit of the same type can then be simply connected.
If the LMS1xx is to be replaced, proceed as follows:
1. Switch off the voltage supply for the LMS1xx.
2. LMS10x/LMS12x/LMS17x:
Loosen and remove the system connector on the bottom of the device.
LMS11x/LMS13x/LMS14x/LMS15x/LMS18x:
Loosen and remove all connection cables from the LMS1xx.
3. Mount the replacement device (see chapter 5 “Mounting” on page 55).
4. LMS10x/LMS12x/LMS17x:
Plug and fix the system connector on the bottom of the replacement device.
LMS11x/LMS13x/LMS14x/LMS15x/LMS18x:
Connect all connection cables to the replacement device and fix them.
5. Configure the replacement device (see chapter 7 “Commissioning and configuration”
on page 80).
