3.8.2.1 Installing the 1/8” NPT Water Cooling
Fittings
Four cooling ports are provided on the dome. Only two will
be used.
•
Remove the cooling port shipping plugs only from the
two ports opposite one another to be used (inlet and
outlet.) The ports are located in the area below the
screws used to mount the dome.
•
Use Teflon tape on the 1/8” NPT stainless
-steel fitting
threads and install the stainless fittings in the positions
where the shipping plugs were removed (positions
marked B in Figure 3.14 below).
•
Connect clean, contaminate-free water to one of the
cooling fittings B via flexible hose or tubing. Connect an
outlet line for the cooling water at the other fitting
labeled B, directly across from the inlet fitting.
•
The supplied cooling water must enter and exit through
flexible tubing or hoses. No stress should be applied to
the transducer from these hoses.
A typical instillation is shown in Figure 3.14.
