-
What are metric port plugs with metric sensor ports used for?
They convert an M22 x 1.50 fluid port into a smaller female metric connection for installing a compatible pressure or temperature sensor.
-
What sensor port sizes are available?
Two female metric sensor port options are available: M10 x 1.00 and M12 x 1.50.
-
How does the M22 x 1.50 connection seal?
The M22 x 1.50 connection uses a straight metric thread for retention and an O-ring to create the fluid seal against a compatible mating port.
-
Is the M22 sealing O-ring included?
Yes. The port plug is supplied with the O-ring required for sealing the M22 x 1.50 connection against a compatible port.
-
What sensors can be installed?
A compatible pressure or temperature sensor can be installed provided its thread matches the selected M10 x 1.00 or M12 x 1.50 female sensor port.
-
How does the sensor seal into the metric sensor port?
The required sealing method depends on the sensor being installed. Follow the sensor manufacturer's specified sealing method and check that both the thread and sealing arrangement are compatible with the selected sensor port.
-
Are these port plugs reusable?
Yes. They can be removed and reused provided the threads and sealing surfaces remain undamaged. Inspect the M22 sealing O-ring before reuse and replace it if necessary.
