2.6 Environmental seal for housing
Thread sealing (PTFE) tape or paste on male threads of conduit is required to
provide a water/dust tight conduit seal and meets requirements of NEMA
®
Type 4X, IP66, and IP68. Consult factory if other Ingress Protection ratings are
required.
For M20 threads, install conduit plugs to full thread engagement or until
mechanical resistance is met.

The low side pressure port (atmospheric reference) on the in-line gage
transmitter is located in the neck of the transmitter, behind the housing. The
