Abstract
A method for cleaning of a measuring element () passed over by a gas flow is arranged on a thin-walled membranous material (). The measuring element () includes at least one heatable element (), which is arranged on the membranous material, the membranous material being capable of vibrating. By means of a control apparatus () or a switching () associated with the measuring element, a periodic delivery of current () in intervals takes place in this manner to at least one heatable element () of the measuring element () and thereby produces vibrations. Alternatively, vibrations of the membranous material () can be produced by special vibration exciters or by means of ultrasonic coupling.
