Dust in the atmosphere enters the outdoor LED display screen through the ventilation holes, which will accelerate the wear and tear or even damage the equipment such as fans. Dust will also fall on the surface of the internal control device of the display, reducing the thermal conductivity and insulation performance. In humid weather, the dust absorbs moisture in the air and causes a short circuit. It can also cause mildew on the PCB board and electronic components in the long term, resulting in a decline in the technical performance of the device. Therefore, the cleaning of the LED display may seem simple, but it is actually a very important part of the maintenance work.

Besides, LED display screen is a high power consumption equipment. After running for a long time, the wiring terminal of the power supply part will become loose due to cold and heat, and the contact will become loose. In severe cases, it will heat up, or even Ignite the plastic component next to it.
