(4) Tightening Nuts
Tighten the nuts according to the torque values for
metal piping in Table 3.3.4. For PVC piping, select
an optional code of GA, GC, or GD, use rubber
gaskets and tighten the nuts to the torque values for
PVC piping in Table 3.3.5.
For permeable fluids (such as nitric acid,
hydrofluoric acid, or sodium hydrate at high
temperatures), tighten the nuts according to the
torque values in Table 3.3.6.
CAUTION
For a flowmeter with fluorocarbon PFA lining,
it is possible that the nuts may loosen as time
passes, so tighten them regularly. Be sure to
tighten the nuts according to the prescribed
torque values. Tighten them diagonally with
the same torque values, step by step up to the
prescribed torque value.
