REPAIR

SCALEPLATE REPLACEMENT

GENERAL

If 

the Humidistat requires replacement, do not remove the

existing mounting plate from the mounting surface, or adjust
or repair any piping.

 REPLACEMENT

Remove the Humidistat cover.
Insert a small screwdriver blade between the 
indicator and the scaleplate assembly (Fig. 7) and pry
the 

 indicator up off the 

 cam and

wheel assembly.
Carefully pry off the two retaining rings from the
scaleplate mounting posts.

Detach the scaleplate locking tab at the right of the
Humidistat base and lift off the scaleplate assembly.
Using the retaining rings included with the new

scaleplate assembly, install the new scaleplate in

reverse order. Be certain to align the flat of the 

pointer with the flat on the hub of the 

 cam and

wheel assembly.
Check calibration of Humidistat and recalibrate if

necessary.

Remove the Humidistat cover.
Remove the old Humidistat, leaving the airhead

connected to the mounting plate.

Discard the new mounting plate.

Align the port holes (Fig. 6) on the back of the
replacement Humidistat with the air connections on the
existing airhead.

Snap the new Humidistat onto the old mounting plate.
Calibrate the new Humidistat.

Reinstall the Humidistat cover.

NOTE: If the gage tap fails to seal itself properly after

Pressure Gage 14003519-001 is removed, bleed off

a small amount of air and insert Gage Tap Plug

 into the gage tap.

Reinstall the Humidistat cover.
