Handling and Storage

Install the protective end caps and store the calibration devices in the foam-lined storage case when not in use.

Never store connectors loose in a box, desk, or bench drawer. This is the most common cause of connector damage during storage.

Keep connectors clean.

Do not touch mating plane surfaces. Natural skin oils and microscopic particles of dirt are easily transferred to a connector interface and are very difficult to remove.

Do not set connectors contact-end down on a hard surface. The plating and the mating plane surfaces can be damaged if the interface comes in contact with any hard surface.
