5.4. Port tube - ASM1487
The port tube is an accessory that can be secured to the base of the probe. This is designed
for installation into pipelines for continuous analysis of your process. The port tube has two
positions to weld onto either the pipe or a flange.
It is fixed in place using a tri clamp that locates over the rear of the port tube and two semi-
circular collars that fit around the probe; the clamp does not need to be tightened with
significant force. A blanking plug is also provided to seal the end if the spectrometer is
withdrawn from the pipeline. For technical drawings, contact Keit at enquiries@keit.co.uk.

5.4.1. Safety
WARNING
The port tube forms a seal with the process pipework and as such
are safety critical to prevent an accidental discharge of the
process media. Keit recommends regular inspection of the
integrity of the welds in line with local safety procedures.
CAUTION
The spectrometer weighs ~18kg. The port tube must not be used
to support the instrument on process pipework. Doing so risks
damage to the spectrometer and excess stress on the piping
system.
