• Close the ball valve.
• Open the pressure relief valve to allow the gas in the cavity between the ball valve and the tube
to escape.
• Untighten and remove the bolts of the clamping device.
• Remove both halves of the clamping device from the combination of the tube and the ball
valve.
• Remove the tube with the main shaft from the ball valve. The front (green colour) of the
removed transducer should be visible in the part of the tube that was inserted into the ball
valve before.

INFORMATION!
Due to friction this may require some force. Use a large size screw driver: insert the blade into
the slot between both halves; use it as a lever to separate both halves. This way at least one of
the halves will be released. If necessary use a light hammer (preferable with a plastic head) for
gently applying a light impact to release the second halve.
