Use of tie bands
(Hose connector (Part No. RE-67501) only)
The hose connector (Part No. RE-67501) comes with tie bands as shown in Fig. 6-5.
①
Insert an end of tube onto the nozzle so that the
tube is tightly put on the nozzle.
②
To fasten the tube with the tie band, insert the tip
of the tie band into the slot (Fig. 6-6).
③
While holding the tie band by the part A, pull the
tip (B) of the tie band to tighten it (Fig. 6-7).
④
After tightning the tie band, cut the tie band by
the part C for cutting off the extra (Fig. 6-8).
m
The tie band that were tightened once
cannnot be reused.
For removing the tie band from the tube, cut
it.
For fastening the tube with a tie band again,
use a new tie band.
m
The tie bands are made of plastic. If
measuring chemicals that are corrosive to
plastic, use tie bands made of an alternative
material.

(2) Installation of the main unit without the sample inlet unit (optional):
Please note the following when installing the main unit to piping or equipment without
using a sample inlet unit (optional):
•
The size of the prism stage of the main unit is a 3S ferrule.
The ferrule connection is recommended for installation.
•
Install the main unit so that the prism surface is at a right angle to the ground.
•
Connect the unit to the piping so that the sample flow directly contacts the prism
surface.
The direct flow of samples (and self cleaning solutions) in contact with the prism will
keep substances from adhering to the prism surface.
•
When installation to a solution tank is preferred, allow the sample flow to directly
contact the prism surface.
•
The sample solution must remain in the temperature range of 5 to 100˚C.
•
During operation, build up of solids, dirt and/or grease may form on the prism surface.
When this occurs, the prism surface must be manually cleaned (
C
"17.Cleaning the
Prism" page 36).
For ease of cleaning, the main unit should be installed in such a manner so that the
unit can be easily removed from the piping or solution tank.
