Ensure that both the Swagelok fitting and the ORS tube are clean and free from any debris or contaminants. Use a clean cloth to wipe the surfaces if necessary.
Connecting the Adapter:
Insert the Adapter 1/2 Swagelok x 1/4 tube into the 1/2 inch Swagelok fitting. Ensure that the adapter is fully seated and properly aligned.
Align the ORS 1/2 with the 1/4 inch tube. The ORS 1/2 should fit snugly into the adapter.
Securing the Connection:
Tighten the Swagelok fitting to secure the adapter. Use appropriate wrenches or pliers to achieve a firm connection, ensuring that the adapter does not shift or misalign during tightening.
Verify that the ORS 1/2 is properly seated and that the O-Ring is in place. The O-Ring is designed to provide a leak-proof seal, so ensure it is not damaged or displaced.
Final Checks:
After the connection is secured, perform a leak test if possible. This can be done by applying a suitable leak detection solution to the connection and checking for any signs of leakage.
Ensure that all connections are firm and that there is no movement or play in the adapter.
