Abstract

The present disclosure discloses a retractable assembly for immersion, flow and mounted measuring systems in analytical process technology for receiving a sensor which is designed to measure at least one measurement variable of a medium in a container, comprising: a substantially hollow-cylindrical housing comprising a housing wall, a service chamber which is formed in the interior in a region of the housing, and a dip tube which is axially movable in the housing between a service position moved out of the medium and a process position moved into the medium, the dip tube being positioned in the service chamber in the service position, the sensor being receivable in the dip tube, wherein at least one optical window is arranged in the housing wall in the region of the service chamber.
