6 Fitting the probe 

 

It  is  essential  to  remove  the  cardboard  protective  tube  for  transport  before 
installation! 

 

If several probes are screwed into one flange, the probe plug and the associated 
probe should be labelled to prevent confusion! 

 
 
Screwing in the probe 

 

Unscrew the probe plug 

 

Clean and check sealing surfaces 

 

Insert (new) sealing ring 

 

Grease the thread with heat-resistant solid lubricant (e.g. graphite). 

 

Screw in and tighten the probe, max. tightening torque Md = 140 Nm. 

 

Fit into the boiler before connecting the power. 

 

Do not seal thread with PTFE tape or the like! 

 

 
When commissioning the boiler, check the probe screw connection in the flange 
for leaks and retighten if necessary!
