Before installing the P8WT, check that the threaded con-
nector and the thread in its mating component are sound
and without burrs. The parts must be easy to screw
together.
The transducer can be screwed in in any position
required. If the transducer is used to measure dynamic
pressure characteristics in liquids, it should be installed
with the pressure connection pointing upward, so that it is
not possible for an air cushion to build up in the measure-
ment tube. This would hinder the measurement of
dynamic signals and cause the transducer to heat up to
unpermitted levels.
Mounting
"
Coat the threaded connector of the hydraulic connec-
tion with sealant.
"
Before electrical connection, screw the transducer
onto the hydraulic connector and tighten the connec-
tion.
