G3PX G3PX Replacement Parts G32X-A Power Device Cartridge The temperature indicator will be lit in red if the power element is damaged. If the power element is damaged due to overcurrent or other rea- sons, the power element and its peripheral parts can be replaced. The power element and its peripheral parts can be replaced without disconnecting the wires of the G3PX.
