10. Maintenance & fault-finding
10.1 Cleaning and Handling
When installing the unit handle with lint free gloves and degrease the unit to reduce the
build-up of deposits.
If there is any build-up of deposit on the unit, it should be gently cleaned with a cloth,
moistened with soft detergent. Solvents should not be used, and care should be taken to
avoid scratching any surfaces. The unit must be allowed to defrost naturally after being
exposed to snow or icy conditions, do NOT attempt to remove ice or snow with a tool.
Always fit the protective cover supplied (see Para 5.2.5) before installation or when
removing the sensor from the installation.
Do NOT remove black “rubber” transducer caps

Opening the unit or breaking the security seal will void the Warranty, Calibration and
