To install a probe:
x
Attach the weight or anchor assembly to the end of
the probe. Insert the probe through the vessel’s
mounting connection, and feed the cable into the
vessel. Do not allow the probe to scrape against the
connection threads.
y
Secure the anchor assembly (if used), to the bottom of
the vessel.
z
Apply thread sealant to the mounting nut. Screw the
mounting nut into the mounting connection until tight.
{
Remove the Mylar housing insulator located over the
clamp. DO NOT DISCARD.
|
Loosen both socket head screws from the clamp. Pull
the clamp and Teflon retaining bushing off of the probe.
}
While holding on to the probe cable, loosen the upper
packing gland nut. DO NOT ALLOW THE PROBE
CABLE TO FALL INTO THE VESSEL.
~
Pull the excess cable up through the packing gland nut
until the cable is taut. Tighten the packing gland nut.
Cut the cable 1.35" (34 mm) above the packing gland
nut and strip off 1.25" (32 mm) of insulation.
Slide the Teflon retaining bushing onto the cable and
seat it into the packing gland nut. Slide the clamp
onto the cable and seat it against the Teflon retaining
bushing.
Tighten both socket head screws, on the clamp, to
approximately 35 in/lbs of torque. Slip the Mylar
insulator over the clamp.
