3.2 Tightening torques

EN
Only ever screw in, or unscrew, the instrument via the spanner flats and to the
■
prescribed torque using an appropriate tool.
The correct torque depends on the dimensions of the connection thread and the sealing
■
used (form/material).
When screwing in or unscrewing the instrument, do not use the connection head as
■
contact surface.
When screwing in the instrument, please observe that the threads are not skewed.
■
Assure that the purge gas connection is tighten and no gas can escape, so that there is
■
no carry-through between zones.
