Quickstick Oxygen Analyzer Operation Manual
5.7. Sensor Replacement - To replace the sensor, gently push and remove the end cover with thumb (the
side without the lanyard). See Figures 1 and 2. Disconnect the 2-pin sensor plug/socket and unscrew
the complete sensor unit in a counter-clockwise direction. See Figures 4 and 5. Replace with new
sensor and reassemble unit.
Be sure to dispose of spent, leaking, or damaged Oxygen Sensors properly, according to local
regulations.
Do not swallow (ingest) either the electrolyte from the Oxygen Sensor or the Sensor itself. The
Potassium Hydroxide
chemical contained in the Sensor can cause severe injury or death. If electrolyte
or the Sensor is swallowed, seek medical attention immediately.
If after handling the Oxygen Analyzer or Sensor, you find that your fingers or other parts of your body
feel “slippery” or the skin or eyes sting, immediately flush affected area with clean, fresh water for at
least 15 minutes. The stinging or slippery sensation is an indication of a leaking Sensor. The
Potassium Hydroxide chemical contained in the Sensor can cause severe injury or death. Seek
immediate medical attention if eye contact is made or skin stinging persists.
