E Hauser 67
7 Maintenance
The Micropilot S measuring instrument requires no special maintenance.
Exterior cleaning
When cleaning the exterior of measuring devices, always use cleaning agents that do not attack the
surface of the housing and the seals.
Replacing seals
The process seals of the sensors must be replaced periodically, particularly if molded seals
(asepticconstruction) are used. The period between changes depends on the frequency of cleaning
cyclesand on the temperature of the measured product and the cleaning temperature.
Repair
The Hauser repair concept assumes that the measuring devices have a modular design and
that customers are able to undertake repairs themselves. Spare parts are contained in suitable kits.
They contain the related replacement instructions. All the spare parts kits which you can order from
Hauser for repairs to the Micropilot s are listed with their order numbers on Page 77 ff..
Please contact Hauser Service for further information on service and spare parts.
