Included with the Pressure Sensor 400 are accessories to allow you to connect it to a
reaction container or instrument. Check to be sure that each of these items is
included:
Nickel-plated brass push-to-connect connector: To secure this adapter to the
pressure sensor, wrap plumber's tape around the pressure sensor threading, then
use the 1/2" tightening wrench to secure the adapter in place. For additional
security, you may want to use the 22 mm tightening wrench to hold down the
pressure sensor while you tighten the adapter in place.
Two-foot section of nylon tubing: This stiff tubing is designed to fit with the
nickel-plated push-to-connect connector. Its standard 1/4" OD and 0.18" ID size
allows you to connect to a variety of third-party instrumentation or adapters.
Double barb brass connector: To secure this adapter to the pressure sensor, wrap
plumber's tape around the pressure sensor threading, then use the 9/16" tightening
wrench to secure the adapter in place. For additional security, you may want to
use the 22 mm tightening wrench to hold down the pressure sensor while you
tighten the adapter in place.
Two-foot section of plastic tubing: This soft tubing is designed to fit over the
brass barb connector. Its standard size allows you to connect to a variety of thirdparty
instrumentation or adapters.
Two tightening wrenches: The smaller wrench has a 1/2" end and a 9/16" end.
The larger wrench is 22 mm.
Plumber's tape: This 1/2" sealing tape should be wrapped around the threading on
the pressure sensor. Wrap only once and to the right, as the threading runs. This
will help ensure an airtight seal.
