Directions for Use

1. Turn o_x001f_, unplug the device.
2. On surfaces that have been in service or have visual signs of oxidation or corrosion pre-treat with DeoxIT® D-Series contact cleaner or other cleaning process (ultra-sonics). Components, contacts and connectors may appear to be clean; however, they may have slight oxidation on the surfaces. When in doubt, _x001e_rst clean with DeoxIT® D-Series. You do not want apply DeoxIT® Shield S-Series over dirty/oxidized metal surfaces.
3. Apply DeoxIT® Shield S-Series contact protector to contact/connector metal surfaces.
4. Operate the part/device to help distribute the DeoxIT® Shield. Apply one more short burst. Wait two minutes before turning on equipment. Test for compatibility before use.
5. For extended protection: For severe environments (humidity, salts, pollutants, sulfur, outdoor applications, etc.) and to apply an additional environmental barrier, apply one of the DeoxIT® Greases. See Data Sheets DS-L260 and DS-M260 for additional information;
6. For production applications, contact a CAIG representative for information and/or recommendations.

Technical Details & Test Data

Materials Compatibility

(Rating: Not compatible, Poor, Fair, Good, Excellent), (N/A = Not applicable (no solvents and propellants)
(* If the product is not 100% DeoxIT® then the package is rated before and after the solvents/propellants are applied to materials. Compatibility testing is always recommended)

Material Name Rating (*100% DeoxIT®)
Rating (*with solvents)
ABS Excellent Fair-Good
Nylon Excellent Excellent
Lexan Excellent Excellent
HDPE Good Good
LDPE Good Good
C.E.Phenolic Excellent Good
Epoxy Excellent Excellent
Polycarbonate Excellent Fair-Good
PMMA Fair Poor
POM Excellent Excellent
PP Excellent Good
PS Fair Fair
PTFE Excellent Excellent
PVC Excellent Excellent
TPE/Rubber/Varnish Poor Poor

Important:
Rating, 100% DeoxIT®: Any of the above that fall into the “Fair” and “Poor” categories should be thoroughly tested for compatibility. They may be compatible, however, it will depend on the manufacturing process of the materials. Acrylics, ABS, and polycarbonate, if under stress, may show slight cracking or crazing damage. Test for compatibility before use. On porous materials; i.e. wood, rubber, cloth, some phenolics, semi-cured materials, no liquid or solvents should be used. Occasionally, DeoxIT® will get onto unwanted surfaces, quickly wipe o_x001f_ surface and usually no damage will occur.
Rating, with solvents: Similar to rating above (100% DeoxIT®). However, any rating worse than the 100% DeoxIT® may require additional care. If DeoxIT is applied to unwanted areas or materials, wipe o_x001f_ surface quickly and usually no damage will occur. Alternatively, apply DeoxIT® onto a lint-free swab or cloth _x001e_rst and then wipe onto desired metal surface.
