Remove the Terminal Box 
1.  Open the terminal box and remove the three terminal connections (CELL+, TC+, and TC-). 
2.  Remove terminal block SCREWs (28) before disconnecting the two HTR wires from the terminal 
block. The other terminal connections remain connected. 
3.  Remove the two SCREWs (15) that fasten the COVER (12) and slide the cover to the flange side. 
4.  Remove the four Bolts (10) and the terminal box (16) with care so the heater strut assembly wires 
will not get caught in the terminal box. 
5.  For pressure compensation type detectors, remove the SCREW (36) and PLATE (37) on the 
ADAPTER (35). Remove the adapter, drawing the wires of the heater strut assembly through it. 
Replace Heater Strut assembly 
1.  Remove CONNECTOR (13) by loosening SCREW (19) until the connector can be removed from 
the heater strut assembly. There’s no need to remove retaining O-ring (18). 
2.  Remove the SCREW (8) at the tip of the probe with a special tool (part no. 9470BX or equivalent) 
and then remove the HEATER STRUT ASSY (23) from the detector PROBE (24). 
3.  Insert the new HEATER STRUT ASSY (23) into the detector PROBE (24), while guiding the 
probe calibration pipe through the heater section and into the bracket hole of the heater strut 
assembly. 
4.  Coat SCREW (8) with grease (NEVER-SEEZ: G7067ZA); the replacement screw shipped with 
the heater strut assembly is already coated. Fasten the HEATER STRUT ASSY (23) to the 
PROBE (24) with SCREW (8) and tighten with special tool (part no. K9470BX or equivalent) to a 
torque of 12N.m ±10%. 
Install the CONNECTOR 
1.  Remove remaining O-rings (22) from back of CONNECTOR (13) Install O-rings (22) over the 
calibration and reference pipes. Use new O-rings if they are damaged. 
2.  NOTE: If you attempt to insert the calibration-gas and reference-gas tubes into the connector 
without disassembling it, the O-rings may be damaged. Remove SCREW (25), PLATE (17), and 
the two CAPs (20) from CONNECTOR (13). 
3.  On pressure compensation type detectors, install O-ring (14) between connector and probe. 
4.  Pass the heater and thermocouple lead-wire through the CONNECTOR (13). Insert the 
calibration-gas and reference-gas tubes through the holes of the CONNECTOR (13). 
5.   Install O-rings (21) over the calibration-gas and reference-gas tube ends. Use new O-rings if they 
are damaged. 
6.   Push the two CAPs (20) into the associated opening of the CONNECTOR (13). Insert the PLATE 
(17), aligning it with the groove of the CAP (20), and tighten it with the SCREW (25). Tighten the 
SCREW (19) until there is no movement between the CONNECTOR (13) and the HEATER 
STRUT ASSY (23). 
7.   For pressure compensation type detectors, insert O-ring (14) between the CONNECTOR (13) 
and ADAPTER (35). Pass the heater and thermocouple lead-wires through the holes in the 
adapter. Attach the adapter to the connector using PLATE (37) and SCREW (36). 
Install the Terminal Box and Wiring 
Install in reverse order of the above terminal box removal procedure. If there are no markers on the wiring 
from the heater strut assembly, identify the wires as follows; the two wires coming from the ceramic
