RP970A PNEUMATIC CAPACITY RELAY
Piping
Fig. 3 shows adaptation piping. Port 1 (Main, Supply)
sharp barb for 1/4-in. (6 mm) O.D. tubing. Ports 2, 3, and 4
(Branch, Output; Pilot, Input; and Exhaust, respectively),
sharp barb for 5/32-in (4 mm) O.D. tubing.
CAUTION
To prevent damage to the sharp barb connections,
do not attempt to cut or pull tubing. To remove the
tubing from the barb connections, cut tubing a few
inches from the control device. Use a coupling to
reconnect tubing.
NOTE: If the system is other than copper or polyethylene
tubing, adapt as shown in Fig. 3. Some models
provide parts for adapting.
