8.2.6 Replacing the sinter filter of the sniffer handle
Fig.54: Sinter filter in the sniffer handle
The sinter filter is in the sniffer handle. To replace the filter inserts, proceed as follows:
1. Turn off the Ecotec E3000.
2. Unscrew the two cross-head screws that hold the sniffer tip in place.
3. Remove sinter filter including o-ring.
4. Check the filter for visible soiling.
5. Insert a new sinter filter with o-ring in the base of the filter tip.
6. Tighten the sniffer tip again.
7. Turn on the Ecotec E3000.
8. Close the sniffer tip with your finger. You should be able to feel the underpressure.
If not then there is a leak somewhere and you have to check sniffer tip and handle.
9. Confirm the work, see "Calling up and managing maintenance information [}71]."
10. Calibrate the Ecotec E3000, see "Calibrate [}43]."
