Probe Cleaning

Dust such as fine/soot particles or machine oil adhered to the air flow element can change the heat dissipation (the amount of heat taken away). This can affect the reading of air velocity. Probes with a wire mesh or a filter cannot read an accurate measurement value when they are clogged with such substances as dust. Once the probe is used in a contaminated environment and the probe and the mesh became dirty, immediate cleaning of the probe and the mesh is recommended.

How to clean the probe

Kanomax-1580-Multi-Channel-Anemomaster-fig-58

Clean the air flow sensor with an ultrasonic cleaning machine for 10 to 20 seconds. Soaking the probe element in the machine for too a long time may cause the breakage of the coating on the element. Use normal water to clean the element. Another method of cleaning the element is that pour neutral detergent diluted with water into a container and gently wave the element in the liquid.

Caution

  • Do not connect anything to the communication terminal of the hub-to-hub unit while cleaning.
  • After cleaning, dry the element completely. Only when it is dried out, connect to the hub unit.
  • Do not clean the probe equipped with the humidity sensor (Model 0975-31) using alcohol. The humidity sensor is susceptible to an organic solvent including alcohol, thus the sensor is broken easily if it is exposed to the solvent. Do not use alcohol.
  • If the humidity sensor has been used in an alcohol atmosphere or soaked in alcohol, the sensor needs replacing.
  • Even if the sensor works, the replacement is necessary. If condensation forms on the sensor or the sensor touches water, leave the sensor under an atmosphere of 40%RH or less at least one day to dry the sensor completely.
  • Do not clean the temperature sensor and the temperature compensation sensor.
