Care & Maintenance
The miniIPS2 and 2e are remarkably robust, being primarily constructed of titanium. The only maintenance
required, other than periodic recalibration as necessary or recommended at maximum of 2 years, is to keep
the sensor as clean as possible. The instrument should be rinsed with freshwater when recovered and any
debris or growth gently removed.
Do not attempt to remove the acetal Lock Screw Cap from the Pressure Module. If debris is caught under
the cover attempt to remove it under slowly flowing water, use no tools. If this fails contact Valeport for
further advice. If the sensor diaphragm is damaged in any way it will have to be replaced.
The instrument should be stored in its box when not in use. It is not necessary to remove the
Interchangeable Pressure Sensor Module during storage.
Any damage to this diaphragm will render the Pressure Module warranty invalid

Calibration
The miniIPS2 and 2e Interchangeable Pressure Modules can be returned to Valeport or one of its approved
