Installation & Usage Tips
- Mounting Position: It may be installed in any orientation, but avoid mounting with diaphragm facing downward if particulate materials are present.
- Piping & Plumbing: Use ¼″ NPSF female coupling; ensure clean threads, use appropriate thread sealant.
- Electrical Wiring: Use appropriate gauge wire, tighten screw clamps securely but avoid over-torquing.
- Adjustment (if needed): Only adjust within manufacturer’s limits. Do not set beyond safe operating pressures.
- Regular Inspection: Periodically check for corrosion, diaphragm wear, or contact degradation, especially in water applications.
