clamp on the ridge of the housing and the end cap and tighten the 

clamp. Repeat this step for the other end.

and proceed to tighten the center seal.

CENTER SEAL TIGHTENING

• 

(I)  Insert the center seal tool into the center nozzle. Turn the tool until you 

feel the notch in the tool mesh with the nubs of the center nut.

• 

Using a counter clockwise motion, slowly torque the center seal to  

90 ft/lb. (122 Newton/meters). Repeat for other end.

 

PRESSURE TEST

• 

(J)  Bolt blind flanges on both lumen ports and one of the shell ports.

• 

Bolt a flange equipped with a 0-100 psi gauge and hose connection.

• 

Pressurize the housing to 60 psig with clean, oil free, air.

• 

Isolate the pressurized housing and monitor the pressure to verify a leak 

free seal. There should be no pressure decay over 30 minutes.
