ADDITIONAL INSTALLATION NOTES

All Flow Tubes are supplied with integral line connections. The end-user must supply any adapt-
ers, etc. required for line connection.
When connecting a screwed fitting to a Kynar, Teflon (PFA) or CPVC Flow Tube, please start the
thread carefully to avoid cross threading. Hand-tighten only. If necessary, use Teflon tape manufac-
tured for plastic piping to effect a leak-proof seal (see Appendix A- Engineering Drawings for de-
tails).
Whenever possible, use the mounting brackets to support the weight of the flow tube.
Consult the supplied engineering drawing for important dimensional data.
