RPI SERVICE TIPS

Timers & Gauges

by Jim Wisniewski

An RPI Tech Help document.

Service Tip 1: If the timer sticks, try loosening the panel nut. If the timer sticks, the panel nut may have been over-tightened when installed. Before ordering a new timer, try loosening the panel nut and then re-test the timer. That may be all that it needs. Also, keep this in mind when installing a new timer – don’t over-tighten the panel nut or it may result in a timer that sticks.

Service Tip 2: Use two wrenches when mounting a gauge. Carefully place the body of the new pressure gauge through the mounting hole in the front panel. When reattaching the pressure line to the new gauge, use one wrench to secure the bulk fitting on the gauge and another wrench to tighten the compression fit-tings. By holding the bulk fitting in place, the internal seal will be protected from damage and eliminate steam entering the face plate.
