How to Change the Sensor
The sensor comes installed in the tip of the GAS-Mate probe. You only need to
insert/remove the sensor when it is time to replace it.
NOTE: If all leak indicators flash and a steady alarm occurs, the sensor is bad or
not installed properly. Ensure the sensor is installed properly or install a
new sensor if this occurs.
1. Insert a paper clip or a small screwdriver under the sensor through the slot in
the probe tip and carefully slide the sensor out of the end of the probe tip as
seen in Figure 2.
2. Remove the new sensor from its packaging.
3. Align the tab on the sensor can with the slot in the probe tip.
4. Carefully slide the sensor into the probe tip. Ensure the wire leads fit into the
matching holes in the sensor socket in the probe tip.
NOTE: When properly installed, the top of the sensor should be
approximately flush with the tip of the probe. It is acceptable if the
probe protrudes slightly from the probe tip as long as the sensor is
fully seated.

Cleaning and Storage

GAS-Mate's plastic housing can be cleaned with standard household detergent or
isopropyl alcohol. Care should be taken to prevent the cleaner from entering the
instrument. Since gasoline and other solvents may damage the plastic, protect
your INFICON GAS-Mate from contact with these substances.
NOTE: Do not allow cleaners or isopropyl alcohol to enter the sensor as it may
become contaminated. Replace the sensor if contamination occurs.
