Installation
If using natural gas as the pneumatic supply medium, natural gas will be used in the pressure connections of the unit
to any connected equipment. The unit will vent natural gas into the surrounding atmosphere, unless it is remote
vented.
WARNING
To avoid personal injury or property damage caused by a sudden release of pressure:
Always wear protective clothing, gloves, and eyewear when performing any installation operations.
Personal injury or property damage may result from fire or explosion if natural gas is used as the supply medium and
appropriate preventative measures are not taken. Preventative measures may include, but are not limited to, one or
more of the following: Remote venting of the unit, re‐evaluating the hazardous area classification, ensuring adequate
ventilation, and the removal of any ignition sources. For information on remote venting of the 4660 pressure pilot,
refer to page 10.
Do not exceed the process pressure values in table 4 or the maximum supply pressure values in table 1.
If installing into an existing application, also refer to the WARNING at the beginning of the Maintenance section in this
instruction manual.
Check with your process or safety engineer for any additional measures that must be taken to protect against process
media.
CAUTION
Do not use sealing tape on pneumatic connections. This instrument contains small passages that may become obstructed
by detached sealing tape. Thread sealant paste should be used to seal and lubricate pneumatic threaded connections.
The following instructions describe various mounting and connecting procedures. Pilots may be connected together
to accommodate requirements for single and dual outputs as well as single and dual process pressure lines. Figure 2
shows some typical connections. When a pair of high‐only and low‐only pilots are used to obtain closer set points as
specified by the set point ‐

values in tables 2 and 3 connect the pilots as shown in examples A and D in figure 2.
For a two‐segment flow line configuration that adheres to API Specification RP14C, connect as shown in example B
or C.
