ABSTRACT:
An arrangement for moving a measuring head of a measuring device into and out of a process space. The arrangement includes a valve member that is attached to a wall of the process space. A measuring device is attached to the valve member and includes a body part provided with an elongated portion which in turn has a measuring head at one end. The measurement device also includes a placement device arranged to seize the measuring device and to move it through the valve member into a first position in which the measuring head extends into the process space and, correspondingly, into a second position in which the measuring head is not in contact with the process space. The placement device includes a stop element configured to seize the measuring device and to form a sealed casing around the body part of the measuring device, and a housing part arranged to attach to the valve member and to form a sealed casing around the stop element. The placement device is equipped with features that move the stop element seizing the body part of the measuring device inside the housing part so that the measuring device moves between the first position and the second position.
