notes 

1.1 Warning 

notes 

 

To avoid injury to persons, damage to property or the environment, the following 
warning notes must be observed! 
 
It is not permitted to open the sensor incorrectly, interfere with or make changes 
to the sensor! 

 

 

All activities (mounting, installation, service, etc.) must be performed by qualified 
staff 

 

Before making any wiring changes in the connection area, completely isolate the 
plant from mains supply (all-polar disconnection). Ensure that the plant cannot be 
inadvertently switched on again and that it is indeed dead. If not observed, there is 
a risk of electric shock hazard 

 

Ensure protection against electric shock hazard by providing adequate protection 
for the connection terminals 

 

During operation, the sensor’s connecting head must be kept closed; all 3 screws 
must be securely tightened 

 

Each time work has been carried out (mounting, installation, service work, etc.); 
check to ensure that wiring of connected lines is in an orderly state and make the 
safety checks as described in 

Commissioning notes

. Keep cables away from 

extremely hot plant equipment or sensor parts 

 

During burner operation, QGO21 must be kept on operating temperature via 
associated control unit (LMV52 with PLL52) 

 

Always keep the sinter filter free from dirt, this extended the response time of the 
sensor 

 

The maintenance timer of LMV52 must be used to ensure that the maintenance 
interval is complied with (see LMV52 User Documentation A7552) 

 

All setting instructions of the LMV52... must be observed (see User Documentation 
A7552, chapter O2 control). In particular, we wish to draw your attention to the 
manipulated variable limitation that is described there. 

 

The environment must be free from chemicals such as vapors from solvents 

 

Before cleaning the sinter filter, allow the QGO21 to cool down for at least 1 hour. 
When using compressed air for cooling (only after the sensor has completely 
cooled down), pressures up to 0.5 bar are permitted. If this is not observed, the 
sensor can be damaged in a way that inadmissibly high CO levels in the flue gases 
can occur 

 

 

Caution - risk of explosion! 
Check that the sintered filter is seated correctly, has been screwed tightly in 
place, and inspect the sensor for damage.

 

If sensors are damaged or not tightly fitted, or if sintered filters are not present, 
this may lead to the loss of the flame arrester. 

 

 

Warning! 
The QGO21 must be maintained regularly. 
 
The OEM and the heating engineer are obliged to: 

 

set a maintenance interval suitable for the system and  

 

to carry out the maintenance outlined in the QGO21 Basic Documentation 
(P7845), chapter 

Maintenance instructions.

 

 

 

Fall or shock can adversely affect the safety functions and lead to dangerous 
conditions. Such sensors must not be put into operation, even if the measuring cell 
does not exhibit any damage 

 

Ensure that air cannot enter the space between burner and measuring parts. In 
particular, the mounting flange must be completely gas-tight
