6.2 Modbus Register Map
The measured data is saved as 32 bit floating point values (data type FLOAT) and as 16 bit signed integer
values (data type INTEGER). Depending on the measurement unit selected, the measurements are
saved in SI or US/GB units. Measurement unit selection is made by means of the ordering code or with
the help of the EE-PCS Product Configuration Software.

7 Maintenance
7.1 Filter Replacement
A contaminated filter cap should replaced by a new one. The order number for new filters is HA010103.
When replacing the filter, please note the following:
Unscrew the filter cap very carefully to avoid damaging the sensing element.
Handling the filter might clog the pores. Use gloves to screw on the new filter.
