Maintenance
The Micropilot M 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 (aseptic construction) are used. The period between changes depends on the
frequency of cleaning cycles and on the temperature of the measured substance and
the cleaning temperature.
Repairs
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 M are listed with their order numbers on and . Please contact
Hauser Service for further information on service and spare parts.

Prerequisite to this is that the data were uploaded to the PC beforehand using the
ToF Tool / Commuwin II.
Measurement can continue without having to carry out a new setup.

You may have to activate linearisation (see BA 221F on the enclosed CD-ROM)

After an antenna component or electronic has been replaced, a new calibration must
be carried out. This is described in the repair instructions.
