Model TS420

NOTE – Calibrating the TS420 in normal atmospheric air may introduce a considerable error due to the affects of temperature and humidity. Ambient temperature and humidity can affect the amount of oxygen in the atmosphere (see Figure 9).

4.5Sensor Replacement Procedure

The following is the procedure to replace a TS420 sensor.

IMPORTANT - Each sensor is shipped in a plastic bottle. DO NOT remove the sensor until you are ready to apply power to the system. To ensure proper sensor response, each TS420 must be calibrated in the field upon initial installation.

1.Unscrew the TS420 sensor cap.

2.Pull sensor out of the TS420 using your fingers. The sensor is a plug-in type, and the sensor will have a snug fit.

NOTE - The TS420 output will drop to 3.5mA when the sensor is removed, indicating a fault condition.

3.If the new sensor is in a plastic storage container, then remove lid ring and uncap jar. Remove the sensor from the container. Save the storage container for later use. Remove paper liner on sensor gasket if present.
