2.1 முன் நிறுவல் சரிபார்ப்பு பட்டியல்

• Verify the tank material is compatible with polypropylene and EPDM.
• Ensure the tank wall thickness is suitable for a bulkhead fitting.
• Confirm the hole size in the tank wall matches the fitting's requirements (typically slightly larger than the threaded portion).
• Inspect all fitting components (body, nut, EPDM gasket) for any defects or damage.

2.2. நிறுவல் படிகள்

1. தொட்டியைத் தயாரிக்கவும்: Drill a clean, appropriately sized hole in the tank wall at the desired location. Deburr any sharp edges around the hole.
2. கேஸ்கெட்டை நிலைநிறுத்துங்கள்: Place the EPDM gasket onto the threaded portion of the fitting body. The gasket should be positioned on the side that will be inside the tank, against the tank wall, to ensure a proper seal.
3. Insert the Fitting: Insert the threaded body of the fitting through the prepared hole from the inside of the tank, ensuring the gasket is flush against the inner tank wall.
4. Attach the Nut: From the outside of the tank, thread the hexagonal retaining nut onto the fitting body. The Banjo TF400 features standard NPT (National Pipe Tapered) threads for easy installation.
5. பாதுகாப்பாக இறுக்கு: Hand-tighten the nut until snug. Then, use an appropriate wrench to tighten the nut further, compressing the EPDM gasket against the tank wall. Do not overtighten, as this can damage the fitting or the tank. The goal is a watertight seal.
6. கசிவு சோதனை: After installation, fill the tank with water or a compatible fluid and inspect for any leaks around the fitting. If leaks are detected, tighten the nut slightly more or re-evaluate the installation.

3. இயக்க வழிமுறைகள்

The Banjo TF400 bulkhead fitting is a passive component designed to provide a secure and leak-free connection point for plumbing systems through a tank wall. Once properly installed, its operation is straightforward:

• Ensure all connections to the fitting (e.g., pipes, hoses, valves) are securely attached and properly sealed using appropriate thread sealant if necessary.
• Verify that the fluid being transferred is compatible with polypropylene and EPDM to prevent material degradation.
• Monitor the fitting for any signs of leakage during initial use and periodically thereafter.
• Avoid subjecting the fitting to excessive pressure or vacuum beyond its design limits.

4. பராமரிப்பு

Regular maintenance ensures the continued reliability and performance of your Banjo TF400 bulkhead fitting.

• அவ்வப்போது ஆய்வு: Visually inspect the fitting and surrounding tank area regularly for any signs of wear, cracks, discoloration, or leaks. Pay close attention to the EPDM gasket for signs of degradation or compression set.
• சுத்தம்: If necessary, clean the exterior of the fitting with a mild soap and water solution. Avoid harsh chemicals that may degrade the polypropylene or EPDM.
• கேஸ்கெட் மாற்று: The EPDM gasket is a wear item. If any signs of leakage persist after re-tightening, or if the gasket appears brittle, cracked, or excessively compressed, it should be replaced with an original Banjo replacement gasket.
• இரசாயன இணக்கத்தன்மை: Always ensure that the chemicals or fluids being stored or transferred are compatible with both polypropylene and EPDM. Incompatible chemicals can lead to premature failure of the fitting.
