Figure 15 Tightening the Clasp Nut
Installing the HMP368 Probe Through a Ball Valve
Assembly
The ball valve installation kit (Vaisala order code: BALLVALVE-1) is
preferred when connecting the probe to a pressurized process or pipeline.
Use the ball valve set or a 1/2" ball valve assembly with a ball hole of ø14
mm or more. If you install the probe (ø12 mm) in a process pipe, please
note that the nominal size of the pipe must be at least 1 inch (2.54 cm). Use
the manual press handle to press the probe into the pressurized (< 10 bar)
process or pipeline.
The following numbers refer to Figure 15 on page 32:
1 = Probe
2 = Clasp nut
3 = Fitting screw
4=Pen
NOTE
Take care not to tighten the clasp nut more than 60° to avoid difficulties
when opening it.
