Appendix: Glove and Sleeve Combination Installation
Terra Universal's Glove and Sleeve Combination allows versatile access to
equipment inside a stainless steel or plastic glove box. This assembly is
designed for use with standard 8"-diameter TUI glove ports, which include a
flange to allow glove connection.
Mounting the Glove and Sleeve Assembly to the Glove Box
Normally, the glove and sleeve combination is installed in the glove box prior to
shipping. If for any reason you need to reinstall the assembly, follow these
instructions:
1.
Insert the glove and sleeve assembly into the glove box, allowing 2" of
sleeve to extend beyond the front edge of the mounting flange.
2.
Fold the outside edge of the sleeve over the flange, so that roughly 2" of
the sleeve cuff is stretched along the outside perimeter of the flange.
3.
The sleeve is held in place by a stainless steel clamp (TUI Cat. No. 1689-40). Position this clamp along the mounting
flange so that about 1" of excess sleeve cuff protrudes on the inside edge of the flange (the edge closest to the front wall
of the glove box). Carefully tighten the clamp just enough to hold the sleeve in place. CAUTION!!!: Overtightening the
clamp could crack or warp the flange and damage the glove box.
4.
Fold back the excess sleeve cuff toward the front edge of the flange to cover the clamp. Repeat procedure for the other
glove and sleeve combination.
Mounting the Glove to the Sleeve
The two-piece design of this assembly permits you to replace the glove without removing the sleeve from the glove box. To replace
the glove,
1.
With the glove and sleeve combination installed inside the glove box, insert your hand fully into the assembly and then
pull it from the glove box to turn the glove and sleeve inside out.
2.
A steel retaining spring holds the glove and sleeve together in position on a retaining ring. Remove this spring.
3.
Peel the cuff of the sleeve from the retaining ring to remove it (still attached to the glove).
4.
To remove the glove, peel its cuff from the retaining ring.
5.
To install a new glove, first turn it inside-out and then stretch the cuff from inside the ring over and around the outside
edge.
6.
Now place the ring (with the glove attached) inside the cuff of the sleeve and stretch the sleeve over the outside perimeter
of the ring.
7.
Reposition the steel retaining spring over the channel of the ring, and reinsert the sleeve and glove combination into the
glove box. Repeat the procedure for the other hand.
