Table 5-3. Bolt installation torque values
Note
If you replaced the PTFE sensor module o-rings, re-torque the flange bolts after installation to
compensate for cold flow.
Note
After replacing o-rings on Range 1 transmitters and re-installing the process flange, expose the
transmitter to a temperature of 185 °F (85 °C) for two hours. Then re-tighten the flange bolts in
a cross pattern, and again expose the transmitter to a temperature of 185 °F (85 °C) for two
hours before calibration.
5.5.4 Install the drain/vent valve
1. Apply sealing tape to the threads on the seat. Starting at the base of the valve with the
threaded end pointing toward the installer, apply two clockwise turns of sealing tape.
2. Tighten the drain/vent valve to 250 in-lb. (28.25 N-m).
3. Take care to place the opening on the valve so that process fluid will drain toward the
ground and away from human contact when the valve is opened.
