2.4.9: Installation on a PVC pipe using SUS grounding
ring material
The installation methods described in this section are for installation on a PVC pipe
using SUS grounding ring material. For the installation method corresponding to any
other combination of materials, refer to Table 2-5 on page 2-12.
PTFE gaskets are provided for this type of installation. If you supply the gaskets,
Azbil Corporation recommends non-rubber gaskets such as joint sheet or PTFE.
Although rubber gaskets can be used, they are not recommended. See page 2-21 for
installation using rubber gaskets.
CAUTION
The use of rubber gaskets and a lower fastening torque is not recommended and
can cause insucient surface pressure between the lining and the grounding ring,
resulting in leakage.
If tightening the bolts at the specied torque threatens to warp or damage the PVC
pipes, you will need to use a protective plate. See page 2-20 for installation of the
protective plate.
To install a wafer detector on a PVC pipe using SUS grounding ring material
with a specied fastening torque:
• Install the detector as shown in the following illustration. The torque level for
tightening the bolts is not related to the gasket material.
See Table 2-1 on page 2-7 for the appropriate torque.
See Table 2-2 on page 2-10 for the inner diameter of the gasket.
