CAUTION
VERIFY CONTACT SURFACE OF THE
CONSERVATOR. IT MUST BE WELL LEVELED
WITH A GOOD DEGREE OF ROUGHNESS (RA=3.2
MICROMETER).
VERIFY AND IN CASE REMOVE ALL WELDING
BURRS TO ENSURE THAT THE WELDING WILL
NOT INTERFERE WITH THE HOUSING FLANGE
HOLES.
DURING THE FLANGE ASSEMBLY, ABB ADVICE
TO APPLY A FEW DROPS OF CYANOACRYLATE
GLUE ON THE GASKET TO FIX IT AT THE OIL
LEVEL FLANGE. THIS ACTION GUARANTEES A
GOOD GASKET POSITIONING AND IT
FACILITATES THE ASSEMBLY
APPLY A SPECIFIC TIGHTENING TORQUE (MAX
20 NM) ON THE NUTS FOLLOWING A CROSS
SEQUENCE.
NOTE
FOR THE LB CONFIGURATION ABB ADVICE TO FIT
IT IN THE CENTER OF THE CONSERVATOR (S=0
