OMEGA® self-sealing plugs will
allow you to take pressure and
temperature readings quickly and
eliminate the need for leaving costly
gages or temperature indicators
on the line. The OMEGA® plug is
permanently installed in the line at
recommended test points. The cap
protects the valve and provides an
additional positive seal. After the
cap has been removed, either a test
thermometer or a gage adaptor with
the proper pressure gage attached
can be inserted through the two selfclosing valves in the plug. Readings
are taken, adjustments or tests can
be made, and when the probes are
withdrawn, the two valves close.
The protective cap is then reinstalled.
Neoprene is resistant to deterioration
from waxes, oils, greases, fats,
petroleum products, and most
refrigerants. It can be operated
at a maximum temperature of
95°C (200°F) at 500 psig.
Nordel gives excellent service
in hot or cold water and in some
applications of low pressure steam.
Nordel is resistant to detergents,
phosphates, esters, ketones,
alcohols, and glycols. It is not suitable
for petroleum products. It can be
operated at a maximum temperature
of 135°C (275°F) at 500 psig.
