Mounting and Installation

■Installation

•Mount the product so that the fluid flows in the direction indicated by the arrow on the side of the body.
Bracket mounting
•Mount the bracket using the mounting screws supplied.
•The tightening torque of the bracket mounting screws must be 0.63±10% N•m.
•When the product is mounted using a bracket, use M3 screws (4 pcs.) or equivalent.
•For the dimensions of the bracket, refer to page 81.

■Piping

For the metal piping attachments
•Ensure that the metal piping attachments are tightened to the required torque (refer to the table below).
•If the tightening torque is exceeded, the product can be broken. If the tightening torque is insufficient, the
fittings may become loose.
•When connecting piping to the product, a spanner should be used on the metal piping attachment only.
Using a spanner on other parts may damage the product.
Specifically, make sure that the spanner does not damage the connector.
•Avoid any sealing tape from entering inside the piping.
•Ensure that there is no leakage from loose piping.
For one-touch fittings
•Insert the tube until it bottoms out, to ensure it cannot be pulled out.
•Insertion with excessive force can cause damage.
•Ensure that there is no leakage after piping.
