13.Follow the instructions in paragraph
i.Ceramic Diffusion Element Replacement
NOTE
This procedure applies to the ceramic diffuser element only.
1.General
The diffusion element protects the O2 cell from particles in process gases. The element does not normally need to be replaced, because the vee deflector protects it from particulate erosion. In severe environments, the filter may be broken or subject to excessive erosion. Examine the ceramic diffusion element whenever removing the probe for any purpose. Replace if damaged.
Damage to the diffusion element may become apparent during calibration. Compare probe response with previous response. A broken diffusion element will cause a slower response to cali- bration gas.
Hex wrenches needed to remove setscrews and socket head screws in the following procedure are available as part of a Probe Disassembly Kit, Table
2.Replacement Procedure
(a)Follow the instructions given in paragraph
(b)Loosen setscrews, Figure
Disassembly Kit, Table
(c)On systems equipped with abra- sive shield, remove dual dust seal gaskets.
(d)Use spanner wrenches from the Probe Disassembly Kit, Table
(e)Put the hub in vise. Break out old ceramic diffusion element with chisel along cement line and 9.5 mm (3/8 in.) pin punch through cement port.
(f)Break out remaining ceramic diffu- sion element by tapping lightly around hub with hammer. Clean grooves with pointed tool if neces- sary.
(g)Replace ceramic diffusion element using the ceramic diffusion ele- ment replacement kit in Table
(h)Test fit replacement ceramic diffu- sion element to be sure seat is clean.
Do not get cement on ceramic diffu- sion element except where it touches the hub. Any cement on ceramic diffu- sion element blocks airflow through element. Wiping wet cement off of the ceramic only forces cement into pores. Also do not get any cement onto the flame arrestor element.
