4. Torque all air pressure fittings to 25 ft/lbs (34 Nm). Do not over tighten.
5. Pressurize the air suspension system and check for leaks.
Mount the Transmitter
See “Service Notes” on page 15 for correct model number transmitters to be used with Air Pressure Transducers.
Important
Air pressure transducers are much higher output devices than Rice Lake Weighing Systems load cells
and load pins, therefore transmitter models used with load cells and load pins will not function correctly
with air pressure transducers.
Mount the single or dual lead transmitter within 3 feet (1 m) of the location selected for mounting the air transducer
(dual lead transmitters have cable leads that are 48 and 60 inches long (122 and 152 cm L). Select a location that is
protected from all road hazards, handling equipment, branches, moving parts, pivoting parts, petrochemicals,
corrosives and other machinery, but is accessible for inspection and testing. Cabling should never be taut.
