Warning Hot Surface
The probe may only be removed with heat-insulated gloves. Before removing the probe, always switch off the supply
voltage to the electronic system. After removal, store the probe in a safe, protected place and wait until it has cooled
down below 35°C/ 95°F.
Note
An exchange of the measuring cell is only necessary if the cell is leaking (erratic or incorrect measured values).
Disconnect the wires in the connection
head and loosen the 2 torx screws, which
hold the inner parts of the tube. Pull off
the thin transparent reference air pipe
from the entry fitting at the connection
box.
Pull out probe internal assembly carefully
(4-hole ceramic rod with signal measuring
wire, thermocouple element and heater)
Unscrew the 4 torx screws at the
measuring cell holder with flange and
remove the measuring cell.

sensor replacement
Clean the flange at the probe tube with fine sandpaper. Tighten the new measuring cell with a new metal gasket
sealing and four new screws at the measuring cell flange of the probe tube. Insert the probe inner parts and ensure
that the inner parts do not bind in the probe tube. Press the locking bolt against the spring, so that the inner parts
assembly is pressed against the measuring cell with enough spring tension.
Tighten locking bolt and connect wires as follows:
