Transfer Tubing Installation

1Connect one end of each piece of transfer tubing to the 444 QuadDilutor. Refer to the 444 QuadDilutor User’s Guide for more information.

2Locate the level sensing cables (LLD cables) supplied with the Z-arm.

3Pass the other end of each transfer tubing through the open end of an LLD cable casing nearest the right-angle connector. The tubing should exit the back of the LLD cable casing approximately 6.5 cm from the end.

4Connect each tubing to the top of the isolation probe holder using a 1/4"-28 nut and ferrule supplied with the tubing. Firmly tighten this fitting using the supplied headless nut extender (part number 49041032) since it holds the probe in place.
