I have a CX-1050-SD-HT-1.4L sensor calibrated in 2015 where the silver-coloured substance (which I presumed was standard 60/40 tin/lead solder) forming the connection at the sensor leads has cracked. I am aware self-repairs are at user's own risk, but I am having trouble melting this substance at the relatively low temperatures required to prevent shifts in the sensor's calibration. Before I spend too long trying to remedy this, is it possible to confirm that it is indeed solder and not, for example, a silver-based epoxy?
Many thanks

Unless the sensor was modified after it was purchased, the Gold plated copper leads are attached using 60/40 SnPb solder.
