WARNING: The sensor will not operate properly if the wire jumper is not removed.
6. Install the rubber boot and charcoal filter onto the new sensor’s face.
7. Carefully plug the replacement sensor into the four-socket pattern that is located in the
detector housing.
8. Make sure the cap gasket is in place and screw the detector housing cap back onto the detector
housing body.
9. Turn on or plug in power to the M2A-XL.
CAUTION:
For all gases except ClO
2
, allow the replacement sensor to warm up for
15 minutes before you continue with the next step.
For ClO

Replacing the Hydrophobic Membrane
1. Turn off or disconnect power to the M2A-XL.
2. Unscrew the detector housing cap from the detector housing body.
3. Unplug the plug-in sensor from the four-socket pattern in the detector housing body.
4. Gently pry up the edge of the white hydrophobic membrane from the sensor face with a small
flat blade screwdriver or a similar tool.
5. Peel off the hydrophobic membrane. It may be necessary to clean off the sensor face to
remove any residue left from the adhesive backed membrane.
6. Install the new membrane on the face of the plug-in sensor.
7. Plug the sensor back into the four-socket pattern in the detector housing body.
8. Make sure the cap gasket is in place and screw the detector housing cap back onto the detector
housing body.
