Maintenance Schedule

4.3REPLACING THE THERMOCOUPLE

The following instructions provide the necessary information to replace the existing thermocouple. Figure 4-2is provided for reference.

You must obtain the following replacement parts kit from T-API:

010820000 , Type K thermocouple

You will need the following tools:

Nutdriver, 5/16

Nutdriver, 11/32

Diagonal Cutter

Philips head Screwdriver #2

CAUTION

Avoid damage to the unit: use only Type K thermocouple in the M501 NH3, converter. It can be distinguished by its wire colors: red and yellow. If you have any other thermocouple, do NOT install it; call T-API to obtain the correct part.
