IMPORTANT
•  Conrm that there is no gap between the ring 
and the process-detector section after they 
are mounted on the process ange. A gap 
can lead to a sudden, explosive release of 
process uids.
•  When mounting or removing the ring, 
take care not to tilt the pressure detector 
downward as the ring can slip off and cause 
injury.
•  When re-mounting the ring, use the new 
spiral gasket as shown in below table.

4.5  Afxing the Teon Film
The FEP Teon option includes a teon lm and 
uorinated oil. 
Before mounting the diaphragm seal to the process 
ange, afx the teon lm as follows:
IMPORTANT
1)  Position the diaphragm seal so that the 
diaphragm is in a upward position.
2)  Pour the uorinated oil on the diaphragm 
and gasket area covering it completely 
and evenly. Be careful not to scratch the 
diaphragm or change the its shape.
3)  Afx the teon lm over the diaphragm and 
gasket area.
4)  Next, carefully inspect the cover and try 
to identify any entrapped air between 
the diaphragm and the teon lm. The 
air must be removed to ensure optimum 
performance. If air pockets are present, use 
your ngers to remove the air by starting at 
the center of the diaphragm and work your 
way out.
5)  Position the gasket on the Teon lm.
6)  Mount the transmitter onto the process 
ange.

4.6  Rotating Transmitter Section
WARNING
Intrinsic safe type transmitters must be, as a rule, 
do not rotate transmitter section if it is powered.
In case you need to rotate when the transmitter 
is powered, using gas detector and conrm no 
existence of explosive gas before rotating.
