3.5.8 Supplementary installation instructions
Seal
• Deltapilot M with a G 1 1/2 thread:
When screwing the device into the tank, the flat seal has to be positioned on the sealing surface
of the process connection. To avoid additional strain on the process isolating diaphragm, the
thread should never be sealed with hemp or similar materials.
• Deltapilot M with NPT threads:
– Wrap Teflon tape around the thread to seal it.
– Tighten the device at the hexagonal bolt only. Do not turn at the housing.
– Do not overtighten the thread when screwing. Max. torque: 20 to 30 Nm (14.75 to 22.13 lbf ft)
Sealing the probe housing
• Moisture must not penetrate the housing when mounting the device, establishing the electrical
connection and during operation.
• Always firmly tighten the housing cover and the cable entries.
