Location and Mounting
Select a location that is recommended by equipment manufacter and reasonably
free from vibration caused by reciprocating or rotating machinery. Where excessive
vibration occurs, use a remote connection and mount by means of a mounting bracket
or separable flange (available on order). When in doubt about excessive vibration,
use a remote connection. Where pulsations, pres-sure surges, or water hammer
are present, protect the control with a surge tank or scrubber.
Mount all controls
vertically and level.
General Purpose Controls:
Install controls prefixed by the let-ters DA, DAF, DRF, DL,
DS, DSF, firmly in a level position. Do not mount the control by twisting the case; use
a wrench on the square part of the 1/4˝ bottom pipe connection. To level, sight across
the two cover screws or check the lower end of the glass opening in the cover to see
that the control is lined up horizontal-ly. On general purpose controls provided with a
flange, mount by means of the three holes in the flange.
