FAQ

What size NPT thread does the vent cap require?

The 60002 model is sized for a 2 NPT thread, which is the most common size for flow switch vent ports in industrial applications.

Can the vent cap be used with both hydraulic and pneumatic systems?

Yes, the cap’s material composition and sealing mechanism are suitable for both hydraulic fluids and pneumatic gases, making it a versatile choice for mixed‑media installations.

Is the powder‑coated finish safe for contact with fuel?

The powder coating is a non‑reactive, inert layer that does not leach chemicals into the fluid stream, ensuring fuel quality remains uncompromised.

How does the locking mechanism work?

When the cap is pressed onto the NPT opening, the internal locking tabs engage with the thread profile, creating a mechanical lock that resists vibration‑induced loosening.

What warranty does Cim‑Tek provide for this product?

Cim‑Tek offers a standard one‑year limited warranty covering manufacturing defects, along with access to technical support for installation guidance and troubleshooting.
