Aarcomm remote controls are rated IP67 for ingress against water and solids. The remotes can be cleaned with a regular hose, but not a pressure washer. The IP rating only covers water, not salt water, solvents, diesel, degreaser, hydraulic oil, or other liquids.
To clean your remote:
- Brush off any dry debris that may have accumulated on the remote, such as concrete dust, sand, or dirt.
- Hose down the remote with a low-pressure rinse from a normal hose. A low-pressure rinse doesn't stress the seals on the device, which protect against further ingress.
- Brush the remote down, including the buttons and seams, to get rid of the last of any debris.
Cleaning an Aarcomm remote properly ensures it remains durable.
