Model TOX-NO2/ANA and GVU-NO2 Nitrogen Dioxide Gas Sensor (8/09)
6. SERVICE
6.1 General: No maintenance is required except for periodic cleaning and calibration
of sensor. See paragraph 4.1 (in this manual).
6.2 Sensor Element Replacement.
The sensing element has an expected life of two (2) years in normal service.
To replace the sensing element, first disconnect the 24 VDC power to the sensor. Then
unscrew the sensor cover and remove the electronics. (Reference paragraph 3.3 in this
manual). Disconnect the three sensor element lead wires (black, white and red) from
terminal block J1. Black wire is connected to terminal 1 of J1, white wire is connected to
terminal 2 of J1 and red wire is connected to terminal 3 of J1.
Unscrew the sensor element housing from the transmitter housing.
Screw new sensor housing into transmitter housing. Connect sensor leads to J1. Black
lead to terminal 1, white lead to terminal 2 and red lead to terminal 3. Allow element to
be mounted--pointing down- for 30 minutes before attempting to calibrate sensor with its
new element. After 30 minutes, calibrate sensor using "Calibration Procedure",
Paragraph 4.2 in this manual.
