7.7 Examine O-rings
N O T I C E
Do not use petroleum-based lubricants on O-rings. It will cause damage to the O-rings.
Damaged O-rings can cause the sensor to flood and make it unserviceable.
Examine the O-rings on the sensor every time they are exposed—on the connector end
flange and other parts. O-rings must be pristine. If there is any question about whether an
O-ring is clean and undamaged, replace it with a new one.
1. Dry the O-rings and O-ring grooves with a lint-free cloth or tissue.
2. Examine each O-ring to make sure there is no damage, dirt, lint or hair on it.
3. Replace an O-ring if necessary.
4. Apply a small quantity of silicone-based Parker Super O Lube
®
or Dow Corning
®
high
vacuum grease to each O-ring.
• The lubricant helps the O-ring move into its groove with no twist, which can
compromise the seal.
• Do NOT use petroleum-based lubricants on any O-ring.
