maintenance

Warning
After repairs or maintenance.
• Ensure that the seal is tight.
• Ensure that all parts are in working order.
note
Special attention must be given in the maintenance plan to the
o-rings. The o-rings used in direct welding holder are consumable
parts, and their life expectancy depends on the conditions in
which they operate. If the temperature frequently exceeds 100°C,
the o-rings must be replaced each time the probe is unscrewed,
because they are easily deformed under conditions of high tem-
perature. If replacement of o-rings according to the plan is not
followed, leakage can occur.
→
Check and replace o-rings as required; always replace at least
once a year.
→
Check that the probe is tightly screwed into the holder. (Weekly
check recommended.)
→
Perform CIP cleaning as required by the type of process.
→
Clean the holder by means of the holes, if contamination with
medium.
→
Thoroughly clean the interior of the holder and the seal pusher if
the probe breaks.

cleaning

note
the holder may be damaged by the cleaning product.
• Clean the holder with a cloth dampened with water or a deter-
gent compatible with the materials the cleaning is made of.
• Never use scouring agent containing hard particles.
8.3.1.

cleaning in place (cip)

If the installation into which the probe is built is being cleaned, the
parts of the holder and the probe that are normally in contact with
the medium (now in contact with the cleaning liquid) can be cleaned
in place, together with the rest of the installation.
8.3.2. cleaning the interior of the direct
welding holder
If the space between probe and steel frame in the interior of the
holder becomes contaminated, it can be cleaned easily by fitting
cleaning adapters (not supplied by Bürkert) to the (non-threaded)
holes in the wall of the steel frame, and injecting a suitable cleaning
fluid. Alternatively, you can steam-sterilize.
