heated coolant rises by more than a few pounds above at-

mospheric pressure. By this means, the pressure is re-

lieved while at the same time foreign materials are

prevented from entering the tank and contaminating the

dielectric coolant. When these wattmeters leave the fac-

tory, the vent opening is sealed with a shipping plug

which is attached to the vent plug by a length of beaded

chain. Before putting the unit in operation, be sure to re-

move the shipping plug and replace it with the vent plug.

Retain the shipping plug with its O-Ring for future use

should it become necessary to transport the load again.

Models 6734B030, 6736-030A and 6737-030A utilize a

special low frequency line section, P/N 6734-034, which

can also be ordered as an accessory to Models 6734B,

6736A and 6737A. To mount the 6734-034 in place, first

remove the existing line section. Do this by unscrewing

the dc cable from the voltmeter block. Next remove the

four screws from the corners of the flange that is bolted

to the face of the load portion. If the low frequency line

section is not already equipped with its own “QC” connec-

tor, then remove the connector from the existing line sec-

tion. Do this by loosening the four screws from the

corners of the mounting flange and pull the connector

straight out. Install it on the low frequency line section

by carefully inserting the pin on the back end of the con-

nector into the hole on the face of the line section. Then

press the connector into place. Return the four mounting

screws to fasten the connector in position. Now remount

the line section onto the load and fasten it in place with

its four mounting screws. Finally, reattach the dc cable

from the meter to the voltmeter block.

On the Model 6735-300A, an overtemperature

thermoswitch, P/N 2450-056, is available as an accessory.

If ordered as part of the original equipment it is factory

installed. If ordered later it must be field installed; pro-

ceed as follows:
