2-5 Transit Precautions
To safeguard against damage during transit, transport the instrument to the
installation site in the same container used for transportation from the factory
if circumstances permit.
2-6 Fluid Connections
General Mounting Practices
Use good piping practices to minimize transmitting any torque or bending
loads onto the process connections on the Quantim. Always verify there
are no leaks prior to starting Quantim on process fluid. The instrument is
delivered from the factory with a rigid surface mounting plate. For optimum
performance, this mounting plate should be used to mount Quantim to a
rigid surface. If panel mounting is required, the bottom of the instrument
is provided with two M4 and M6 (see dimensional drawings, Section A)
mounting holes to properly install the instrument on a rigid flat plate. Panel
mounting is not recommended for Quantim flow controllers with remote
valve configuration.
Any rotation of the inlet or outlet fitting during installation of a metal
seal device may result in a leak. Always use two (2) wrenches when
attaching gas lines to prevent rotation.
WARNING
!
Prior to installation:
a. Verify that tube fittings match the fitting type and size supplied with
your Quantim instrument.
b. Make certain that all piping and fittings are clean and free of
obstructions for the instrument and filter.
c. Assure that the final installation permits easy access to the
instrument.
