For 2" MNPT Seal Housing
TID cannot be calculated until the Seal Housing is screwed into place. Bolt or Screw the E-IAS™ Sampler to the
Valve or designated installation location. (KAM CONTROLS recommends liquid thread sealant and not teflon tape
for the threaded E-IAS™ Sampler.)
You must then measure the Threaded Depth (TD) into the Valve or connection in order to calculate TID. You can do
this by measuring the distance from the edge of the Valve or female connection to the top of the Seal Housing
body and subtracting that distance from 5.25". Fig 3-6.
Total Insertion Distance (TID)= D1 + WT + 7/16 Pipe ID -Threaded Depth (TD)
For example: If the measured distance from the top of the Valve and the top of the Seal Housing body is 4.65"
you should calculate the threaded depth (TD) by subtracting 4.65" from 5.25". (5.25-4.65=0.6)
You are now ready to calculate the TID.
TID= D1 + WT + (Pipe ID x 7/16) - TD (from page 8)
Example:
D1= 14"
WT=
.25"
ID = 8.125"
TD=.6"
TID=14 + .25 + 3.55 - .6=17.2
