Installing the Chemical-Resistant Models
The sensor may be threaded directly into
the side of a tank (see dimensions for hole
diameter and thread specifications), or
into a non-threaded hole, using the
included threaded nut. Recommended
through-hole size: 56.5 ± 0.5 mm
For a non-threaded hole, install an o-ring
onto the flange, and insert the flange
completely into the hole until the sensor's
front surface is against the tank’s exterior
surface. Place the second o-ring into the
groove on the PTFE nut. Thread the nut
onto the flange and tighten enough to
eliminate gaps between the flange and the
tank surface. This ensures that the o-rings
are fully compressed.
