O-ring

Cell Assembly

1. 

Carefully inspect all o-rings. Replace any that show signs of damage or 

wear.

2. 

Place a thin film of silicone grease on all o-rings.

Replace all o-rings after any test above 350°F (176.6°C).

3. 

If the cell caps are not already assembled, refer to page 20 for assem-

bly instructions.

4. 

Set the cell body on the stand with the end marked “IN” pointing up. Place 

an o-ring (#170-13-3) on the shoulder inside the cell body and one in the 

groove around the cell cap.

5. 

Apply grease to the threads of the cell caps.

6.  Screw the inlet cell cap assembly into the cell body.

7. 

Push in the red knob on the heating jacket. This moves the cell rest 

plunger into position to support the cell.

8. 

Place the cell into the heating jacket with the inlet side pointing down.
