Hydrophobic Filter Replacement
The hydrophobic filter on the front of some of the

electrochemical sensor housings protects the sensor cell

from contaminants in the environment, and also enables

the operation of the cell in “wet” environments without

plugging its screen. The operator should frequently

inspect the hydrophobic filter for cleanliness. A dirty filter

can significantly reduce the amount of gas that is able to

reach the sensor cell, thereby impairing the ability of the

system to respond to a hazardous condition. If the filter

becomes dirty or if it is damaged, it must be replaced.

To replace the hydrophobic filter, simply unscrew the

existing filter from the housing, then replace it with a new

filter. Use care not to over tighten.

NOTE

A dirty hydrophobic filter can adversely affect the
response of the sensor by blocking the flow of
gas to the sensor cell. If the detector cannot be
calibrated or responds slowly to the calibration
gas, check the condition of the hydrophobic filter
before replacing the sensor cell. The hydrophobic
filter should be clean and squarely seated in the
housing.

DEVICE REPAIR AND RETURN

Prior to returning devices, contact the nearest local

Detector Electronics office so that a Service Order

number can be assigned. A written statement describing

the malfunction must accompany the returned device to

expedite finding the cause of the failure.

Pack the unit properly. Use sufficient packing material

in addition to an antistatic bag or aluminum-backed

cardboard as protection from electrostatic discharge.
