Steps for successful installation:
● Before installation of the transmitter or sensor ensure that the fitting has
been tested for leaks and the threads are not damaged or worn. If a
damaged fitting is evident a new fitting should be installed.
● When installing the transmitter or sensor ensure that a proper seal is
obtained between the fitting and transmitter via the use of an appropriate
sealant or gasket.
● When securing the transmitter or sensor to the fitting, only
tighten by hand!
● Be careful not to overtighten the transmitter in the fitting.
