Cleaning and assembling components
Cleaning the pressure transducer
The controller itself is maintenance-free.
If the vacuum system is contaminated (oil, particles, etc.), contamination of the pressure transducer will
influence the accuracy of measurement.
Attention: Never use hard objects to clean the pressure transducer!

➨ Fill the chamber of the pressure transducer with a solvent (e. g. benzene) and allow sufficient cleaning
time. Observe all regulations concerning usage and disposal of solvents!
➨➨
➨➨
➨ Drain the solvent and dispose of in accordance with regulations, repeat cleaning if necessary.
➨➨
