FIGURE 18 – Thermocouple Sensor with Bayonet Style Retainer
1) To remove a sensor fitted with the bayonet style retainer, push gently on the
retainer while turning to the left. When the retainer is disengaged, pull out the
old temperature sensor.
2) Use a short, flat-blade screwdriver to remove the adapter.
3) Install the new spring tab retainer using an appropriately sized open end
wrench (1/2” or 13mm).
4) Install the new sensor by applying a small amount of heat transfer grease to
the sensor tube and re-inserting in the unit. Squeeze the spring tab while
inserting the sensor. Push firmly until the sensor is fully engaged. There
should be at least ½” of sheath remaining.
5) When connecting new thermocouple wires back to the control board
ensure that the yellow wires are connected to the yellow terminals and
red wires to the red terminals. Do not over tighten terminal screws!
Connect the main power wires back to the contactor and re-install the control
box lid. Torque lid bolts to 19.5 ft-lb.
Failure to properly torque lid bolts
may compromise explosion proof enclosure rating and may lead to
water entering the enclosure.
6) Restart vaporizer and check operation.
