6.2.4 Press the sensor tip vertically against the inlet side (flat surface) of the steam trap.

Caution

1. During the steam trap diagnosis, press the sensor tip as vertically as possible.

* If the sensor tip is pressed from an angle,

the contact condition of the sensor will change and

accurate measurement will not be possible. It is recommended to create a flat surface (at least φ6

)

by sanding the measurement surface.

2. Measure the steam trap by pressing the sensor tip at the same position.

* Diagnosis result will differ depending on the measurement positions.

3. Do not push the sensor too much.

* It will lead to damaging the tip.
