MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES
SAMPLE FILTER REPLACEMENT
Inspection Frequency: Inspect the sample lter before and after
each use of the instrument. Failure to replace the sample lter when so
indicated may result in out-of-warranty damage to the instrument.
What To Look For: Inspect the outside diameter of the white element for
the appearance of red spots or discoloration, which indicate the sample
lter requires replacement. Note: Inspect only the outside diameter. It is
normal to see red indicating dye at the ends of the lter element.
Replacement Procedure:
1. Power down the instrument, and disconnect the sample hose.
2. Obtain replacement lter, Robinair part no. 16913.
3. Remove existing lter by pulling it straight up and out of the
retaining clip, and disconnecting the tube connections. Do not allow
the free tube ends to slip back into the instrument.
4. Discard the existing lter.
5. Install the free ends of the instrument tube onto the ends of the
replacement lter, aligning the lter ow arrow with the arrow on
the instrument case.
6. Carefully slide the tubes back into the instrument case, and position
the lter into its retaining clip on the instrument case.
7. Inspect the sample hoses for signs of oil entrapment. The need
to replace the sample lter may indicate oil contamination in the
sample hoses. Replace or ush the sample hose(s) if oil entrapment
is found.
