We want to clean manually (and regularly) the optical sensor of our device. We know it is a delicate piece of equipment so we are looking for practical indications, video, or any type of help.
Hello Sabina,
Beckman Coulter describes the preferred method:

I've met similar devices and when it speaks of 'lens tissue' they really do mean that - wood pulp fibres for generic tissues don't have the same quality control, and it takes a microscopic amount of some non-vegetative debris and you've a marred surface.
Practically, if the debris is large and obvious (a fingerprint, a crumb of something (!)) then a medical cotton bud moistened in 50:50 distilled water and iso-propyl alcohol is what I use for infra-red detector faces - and shouldn't do much harm if gently applied.
