Abstract
A cleaning device for installation in a pipeline having a sensor unit which has at least one sensor tip; an elongated housing which has a first longitudinal end and a second longitudinal end and at least partially receives the sensor unit so that the sensor tip, in the measurement mode, protrudes at the second longitudinal end; and a wiping unit which is held in the housing so that it is movable in the longitudinal direction and has a wiping element, which is assigned to the sensor tip in such a way that the wiping element wipes along the sensor tip and thereby cleans it during a movement of the wiping unit.

A cleaning device for installation in a pipeline, comprising:
- a sensor unit which has at least one sensor tip;
- an elongated housing which has a first longitudinal end and a second longitudinal end and at least partially receives the sensor unit so that the sensor tip, in the measurement mode, protrudes at the second longitudinal end;
- and
- a wiping unit which is held in the housing so that it is movable in the longitudinal direction and has a wiping element, which is assigned to the sensor tip in such a way that the wiping element wipes along the sensor tip and thereby cleans it during a movement of the wiping unit;
- wherein the wiping unit has a cylinder space and a piston element provided therein, the piston element being connected to the sensor unit and separating the cylinder space into a first and a second chamber.

- wherein at least one cleaning nozzle, which is aligned in the direction of the sensor tip, is provided, and
- wherein a U-shaped carrier element, which receives the at least one cleaning nozzle on its base, is provided on the wiping unit, the base of the carrier element lying at a distance from the wiping element and a space in which the sensor tip lies, in the measurement mode, is defined between them.
