and tighten the Socket Cap Screws on the locking collar. This will

damaged during mounting. FIG. 3-6.

Calculate the insertion distance for
Flanged Seal Housing
(If you have a MNPT Seal Housing, proceed to step 9):
Total Insertion Distance (TID) = D1 + Pipe Wall Thi Seal Thi X
Use Table 3-1 to determine "X" value.
Example for D1=19", Pipe WT=3/8", Seal Thickness=1/8", and Pipe Diameter=6" (X=1")
TID=19 + .375 + .125 + 1
TID= 20.5"

Measure the distance (D1) from the outside diameter of main
pipe to the tip of the valve. FIG. 3-7.
8.
Use the calculated TID and mark a second line on the shaft, measuring from first mark. FIG. 3-8. (Do not use
anything sharp to mark the shaft as this will create grooves that will damage the O-rings in the seal housing.)
Proceed to step 11.
