9 Cleaning Note: LTO drives in general do not require frequent cleaning. 9.1 Label designations on LTO cleaning media. For the last several years, cleaning tapes for LTO drives have been UCC (universal cleaning cartridges). Prior to the universal or for use with all designation of cleaning media, vendor specific cleaning media was used. For the purposes of this document only universal or for use with all cleaning media will be discussed. If a tape is not labeled universal or for use with all, then Dell recommends the user to purchase a tape with that designation. Note: As of this document, LTO-1, 2, and 3 all use the same cleaning media although it might not be labeled as such depending on the vintage of the tape. 9.2 Cleaning media usage and drive cleaning lights Note: New Dell UCC tapes are labeled as "For Use With All Ultrium 1, 2, & 3 Drives" Figure 12 - Universal Cleaning Tapes Physical Description Part Number Drive Type Dell PowerVault 110T LTO Dell PowerVault 110T LTO-1 Dell PowerVault 110T LTO-2-L (Certance) Dell PowerVault 110T LTO-2-L (Tandberg) Black tape labeled with "For Use With All Ultrium X drives" Ultrium 2 and 3 may or may not be written on the tape 310-5084 # of Tape Motion Hours before # of uses before cleaning tape How is the cleaning required Cleaning Light Illuminates expires displayed Not Supported 15 Use cleaning Cartridge light 500 50 Status light 500 50 Power light on Solid-Green, Status light on Solid-Amber 100 50 Cleaning LED (amber) ON Dell LTO Media Handbook Page 16
