Assembly: Installing the 

End Caps

1.  Hold the inner diameter corner radius side of the 

backing ring towards you and link two backing 

ring sections together at the puzzle joint as 

shown in figure 4. 

2. 

On the contactor vessel side of the flange with 

the gas port pointing up, assemble the linked 

sections of backing ring. 

3. 

Add the remaining two backing ring sections to 

complete the full backing ring assembly.

4. 

As shown in figure 5, install two metallic tie bars 

and two lifting rings over the indicated puzzle 

joints. 

NOTICE: 

The position of the lifting rings, tie bars, 

and puzzle joints are critical to product strength. Do 

not deviate from the positions shown in figure 5.

Notes: 

•  Orient the lifting ring of the second end cap 

180˚ from the first lifting ring. 

• 

When adding the tie bar, make sure it curves 

the same way as the backing ring and 

contactor vessel flange.

• 

Nozzle orientation should be the same as the 

original.

5. 

Insert bolts with large flat washers completely 

through the bolt holes to hold the backing rings 

in place.

6. 

Place the gasket over the bolts with the 

contoured side of the gasket facing the 

contactor vessel.
