Model SLA7810 & SLA7820

2-8 Installation Procedures

Installation Procedures

a. The Model SLA7810/SLA7820 should be located in a clean, dry

atmosphere relatively free from shock and vibration.

b. Leave sufficient room for access to the electrical components.
c. Install in such a manner that permits easy removal if the instrument

requires cleaning.

d. The Model SLA7810/SLA7820 pressure controller may be installed in

any position.

Note: The control valve in the Model SLA7810/SLA7820 provides precision control and
is not designed for positive shut-off. If positive shut-off is required, it is

recommended that a separate shut-off valve be installed in-line.

2-7 Gas Connections

Standard inlet and outlet connections supplied on the Model SLA7810 and
Model SLA7820 are 1/4"(M) VCR. Prior to installation ensure all piping is
clean and free from obstructions. Install piping in such a manner that
permits easy access to the instrument if removal becomes necessary.

With the pressure controller upstream of the vessel (downstream pressure
controller), the most likely application is controlling a subatmospheric
pressure in the vessel. The inlet of the pressure controller can be at
atmospheric gas pressure or at vapor pressure of a liquid source. The flow
in this situation is usually determined by the characteristics of a vacuum
pump.
