5. MAINTENANCE 

 

Vented transducers require periodic replacement of the desiccant capsules in the moisture trap. 

Replace capsules when they change from blue to pink. 

 

If the sensor is installed in water with high concentrations of silts etc. it may require cleaning 

from time to time. This can be accomplished by gently flushing water through the transducer; 

first through the P-1 port and then back through the seal screw hole. Repeat this several times 

until the water passing through is clear. Remember not to apply excess pressure to the sensor.
