34. Tightening of Evaporator Flask

Evaporator Flask must be sufficiently tightened with large coupling ring (X).

For this purpose the large coupling ring (X) is equipped with a torque indicator. As illustrated below
the coupling ring has to be tightened until the indicator point (Y) is aligned with point „1“ (Z). This is
accompanied by a „click“. For distillation without vacuum the ring has to be tightened until point (Y)
is align

ed with point „2“ (A).

If rule is not followed leakage can occur during operation.
