Monthly PM - Xrite Exact

Cleaning the Optics

Using canned air, blow short bursts of clean, dry air into the measurement aperture. This should remove any accumulated dust in the optics area. WARNING: DO NOT invert cans that use Freon as a propellant, doing so could cause damage to the optics assembly.

Cleaning Calibration Plaque

Do not use solvents or cleaners of any kind. eXact - Blow short bursts of clean, dry air onto the calibration tile. This should remove any accumulated debris. WARNING: DO NOT invert cans that use Freon as a propellant, doing so could cause damage to the optics assembly.

Yes
No
N / A

if the answer is "oneOf [Yes]"

Create an MX work order to replace. Assign this to the Plant Manager
