AUTODOME Bubble Replacement
This guide provides instructions for replacing a bubble on an
AUTODOME camera (of VG4 Series, VG5 Series, or 7000 Series)
with in-ceiling or pendant housing. The guide also includes
important information about handling and cleaning the bubble.
Replacement bubbles are made of either Polycarbonate or
Acrylic. Rugged polycarbonate bubbles provide high impact
resistance, and are comparable to glass or acrylic, although their
surface is much softer. High-resolution acrylic bubbles offer
enhanced image clarity for high-resolution images but are low-
impact.
!
Warning!
High-resolution acrylic bubbles are not permitted to be used
with a VG4 Pressurized Environmental Housing. If not avoided,
this application could result in bodily injury and damage to the
camera.
!
Warning!
Polycarbonate bubbles are not recommended for use in HD
AUTODOMES, due to optical quality degradation.

Bubble Handling and Cleaning
Rugged polycarbonate or high-resolution acrylic replacement
bubbles require special care when handling and cleaning to
avoid scratches.
!
Warning!
High-resolution acrylic bubbles are not permitted to be used
with a Pressurized Environmental Housing. If not avoided, this
application could result in bodily injury and damage to the
camera.
Handling
The bubble is packaged with a protective plastic sheet. It is
recommended that the bubble remain stored this way until it is
ready to install. Limit handling the bubble, as any scratches can
quickly affect visibility.
Cleaning
If cleaning the bubble is required, use the following procedures
and comply with all the warnings listed below.
Cleaning the Bubble Interior
The extremely soft interior surface should not be cleaned by
rubbing or dusting with a cloth. Use clean dry compressed air,
preferably from a spray can, to remove any dust from the
interior surface.
!
Warning!
Do not use alcohol-based solutions to clean the bubble. This
will cause the polycarbonate to cloud and over time cause
stress aging, which makes the bubble brittle.

Bosch Security Systems, Inc. 2013.06 | 2.1 | F.01U.288.194
Cleaning the Bubble Exterior
The exterior of the bubble is hard coated for extra protection. If
cleaning becomes necessary, only use cleaning solutions and
cloths suitable for cleaning safety glass lenses. Dry the bubble
thoroughly with a dry nonabrasive cloth to prevent water spots.
Never scrub the bubble with any abrasive material or cleaners.
Do:
– Do use the Bosch recommended NOVUS No. 1 Plastic Clean
& Shine (or equivalent), according to manufacturer’s
instructions.
Do Not:
– Do Not use abrasive or highly alkaline cleaners on the
bubble.
– Do Not scrape the bubble with razor blades or other sharp
instruments.
– Do Not use Benzene, Gasoline, Acetone, or Carbon
Tetrachloride on the bubble.
– Do Not clean bubbles in the hot sun or on very hot days.
