Housing closing
STEP 1:
Before closing the housing, remove the O-ring seal from its groove and carefully
verify that the O-ring and its groove are free from scratches or foreign matter.
Lubricate the O-ring with a light coat of silicone grease. Also check that the O-
ring mating surface on the housing is clean and free of any physical damage.
WARNING:
For proper handling of O-rings, follow the detailed instructions outlined in the
O-
rings
section (page 28).
STEP 2:
Perform either a Surveyor moisture alarm test or a vacuum check if you are using
a pump. Refer to the
Surveyor sensor
and
Vacuum pump
sections (from page 19)
for a complete procedure.
STEP 3:
Make sure that the housing is free of any foreign object that could interfere
during closing.
STEP 4:
Rotate the closing latch counter-clockwise until its round side is pointed at the
front of the housing. If it is locked in position, press on the latch tab (marked
“PUSH”)
to release it then rotate.
STEP 5:
To close the housing, bring the housing shells together, then rotate the closing
latch clockwise until it clicks in the locked position.
WARNING:
In the event that you should feel any unusual resistance when attempting to close
your housing, do not force closure. Reopen and inspect carefully for any potential
obstruction before trying again.
