Seal handling and installation
3.1.1
Diaphragm
The remote seal diaphragm is designed to withstand pressure and wear from process, but
outside of process connection conditions, remote seals are delicate and should be handled
with care.
The protective cover should remain on the seal until the moment before installation. Try
to avoid touching the diaphragm with fingers or objects and refrain from setting the
diaphragm side of the seal down on a hard surface.
Even minor dents or scratches in the diaphragm material may impair the performance of
the seal system assembly. Care should be taken to ensure the seal diaphragm is not
dented or damaged during seal installation.
3.1.2
Capillary
When unpacking or handling seal system assemblies, do not lift the seal or transmitter by
gripping the capillaries. Avoid sharply bending or crimping the capillary tubing. The
minimum bending radius of the capillary tubing is 3-in. (8 cm).
3.1.3
Rosemount Thermal Range Expander
The Rosemount Thermal Range Expander system uses the heat from the process in order
to keep both fluids within the system functioning properly; therefore insulation is not
always required. However, it is always best practice to insulate systems to keep them
functioning with optimum performance. The Rosemount Thermal Range Expander should
never be insulated above the line marked on the seal itself.
