Top Cap Assembly
1. Inspect the transducer and thermocouple ports to make sure that they are
clean and free of cement.
2. Install the thermocouple into one of the ports on the top cap of the SGSM
test cell. Tighten the thermocouple completely then loosen it ¼ of a turn.
The two ports are interchangeable.
3.
Tighten the jaws of the vice on the flats of the cell cap with the threads
faced up.
4. Insert retaining ring into the lower internal ring groove of the cell cap so
the gap clears the thermocouple as shown below.
