Wiring cable through flameproof packing adapter. • Apply a non-hardening sealant to the terminal box connection port and to the threads on the flameproof packing adapter for waterproofing.
6. OPERATION OPERATION 6.1 Preparation for Starting Op- eration This section describes the operation procedure for the EJX118A as shown in Figure 6.1 when measuring liquid level in a closed tank, and EJX438A as shown in Figure 6.2 when measuring pressure in a tank. (a) Confirm that there is no leak in the connecting part of each diaphragm seal mounting flange.
