Sealing Air Accessory Kit
The sealing air pressure kit (catalog number MPS-AIR-PURGE) is available for field
installation.
The kit provides a quick-release female air fitting. Positive air pressure applied to the IDM unit
creates an additional level of protection against the ingress of foreign substances and moisture.
Sealing Air Accessory Kit Guidelines
You must supply these items, to connect to the sealing plug:
•
Plastic air tubing must be 4 mm (5/32 in.) OD Teflon FEP tubing.
•
Air supplied to an IDM unit must not exceed 0.1 bar (1.45 psi).
Sealing Air Accessory Kit Installation
1. Remove the 5 mm (0.20 in.) sealing plug with a Phillips screwdriver.
2. Inspect the air fitting and the opening to verify the surface area is undamaged and the
contact area is clean.
3. Install the air tubing by using a 2.5 mm hex bit and torque the air fitting to 1.1…1.2 N•m
(10…12 lb•in).
4. Visually inspect the circumference of the connection for proper seating.
ATTENTION: Air supplied to the IDM unit must be clean, dry, and of instrument quality.
Maximum air pressure is 0.1 bar (1.45 psi). Excessive air pressure or improper filtering of air
can result in damage to the IDM unit.
IMPORTANT Be careful while rotating the hybrid connectors when a sealing air fitting is installed.
The minimal clearance between the air fitting and the connectors can result in a pinch
point.
