Examples of Application Methods
In method #1, the cleaner is applied to a wiping cloth; the cloth is then used to wipe the connectors clean. This can be done in the fixture or on individual connectors during inspections. If cleaned in the fixture additional cleaning at inspection is all but eliminated. The advantages of cleaning with Novec Contact Cleaner are that the cleaning is more complete, with no residual left behind; no odor; and minimal irritation to skin. The cleaner is fast drying, which also aids in both visual and interferometric inspection.

Toxicity Profile The toxicological testing completed on Novec Contact Cleaner shows the overall
toxicity is low. The material is practically non-irritating to the eyes, minimally irritating to the skin and is not a mutagen. A 90-day inhalation study has helped establish a recommended exposure guideline of 750 ppm for an eight-hour average worker exposure per day. This exposure guideline was established by the American Industrial Hygiene Association. When used as directed, in its intended applications, there is a large margin of safety between anticipated exposures and the exposure guideline.
Safety and Handling Novec Contact Cleaner is nonflammable and does not exhibit flammability
characteristics under normal operating and storage conditions. This fluid is highly resistant to thermal breakdown and hydrolysis in storage and during use. Recommended handling procedures are provided in the product Material Safety Data Sheet which is available from your local 3M representative upon request.
