NOTE: If your PT-500 has a vent tube, do not seal, cover, or close the vent tube with anything other than an APG-provided venting cap or desiccant drying cartridge (See Fig- ure 3.3 and 3.4). Unapproved seals or covers will prevent proper sensor operation.
• Removal Instructions Removing your PT-500 from service must be done with care. It’s easy to create an unsafe situation, or damage your sensor, if you are not careful to follow these guidelines: • For sensors installed via NPT process connection, make sure the pressure is completely removed from the line or vessel.
• Vent Tube Drying Condensation in the vent tube can damage the electronics in your sensor, resulting in unreliable readings. APG offers two methods of preventing vent tube condensation: a venting cap, and a desiccant drying cartridge. The venting cap is a PVC tube with a hydrophobic patch that allows moisture to pass out of the tube without allowing water in (See Figure 3.3).
Figure 3.3 Figure 3.4 NOTE: Desiccant crystals change from blue to pink as they become saturated. Car- tridge must be replaced when all crystals have saturated. IMPORTANT: Do NOT use desiccant cartridge in the presence of vapors or liquids con- ...
