Visual Inspection

The Sensor should be inspected annually. Inspect for signs of corrosion, pitting, and water damage. During
visual inspection, the Sample Chamber should be inspected to insure that it is not blocked. Examine the plug-
in sensor for signs of physical blockage, electrolyte leakage, or severe corrosion. Also, inspect inside the
Junction Box for signs of water accumulation or Terminal Block corrosion.

5.2 Replacement of Intelligent Plug-in Sensor

NOTE: It is not necessary to remove power while changing the Intelligent plug-in VOC gas
sensor in order to maintain area classification, since it is intrinsically safe.

a) Use a 1/16” Allen wrench to release the locking setscrew that locks the ITM and Splash Guard Adapter
together (One turn will suffice - Do not remove setscrew completely).

b) Unthread and remove the Splash Guard Adapter and Sample Chamber from the ITM.
