Weld the Mounting Hardware Onto the Pipe

Threaded Flo-tap Flanged Flo-tap

Tack Weld the Mounting Hardware with 4 Equal Length Tacks Tack weld anywhere on

the mounting hardware Then again directly across

from the first tack weld Then on the other 2 sides

Check to See that the Mounting Hardware is Level and Square If it’s not, use a

rubber mallet to lightly adjust the hardware and recheck

Verify that the ODF Dimension Matches What is Listed in the QIG The ODF is the dimension from outside pipe diameter to face of flange

Verify that the ODF Dimension Matches What is Listed in the QIG The ODF is the dimension from outside pipe diameter to face of flange

For Threaded Flo-tap the dimension from the pipe OD to the top of the threadolet is called LMH:485 Sensor Size 1: 1.38-in. (35 mm)485 Sensor Size 2: 1.56-in. (40 mm)485 Sensor Size 3: 2.06-in. (52 mm)

Complete a Continuous Weld Around the Perimeter of the Unit

Attached the Full Port Valve to the Mounting HardwareThreaded Flo-tapFirst, thread the guide nipple into the mounting then thread the valve

Flanged Flo-tap

The valve stem should be in-line with the pipe so it will not interfere with the insertion rods

The valve must be a full port valve to allow the Annubar to pass through the valve into the pipe

Drill the Hole by Using a Hot Tap Drilling Machine

Tag with correct drill hole size attached to the Annubar

Guide Ring in Rosemount Supplied Mounting Hardware

After the Hole is Drilled, Retract the Drill Past the Valve and Close the ValveVent drilling machine and remove the per manufacturers

and site proceduresThreaded Flo-tap Flanged Flo-tap

Remember that the hot tap drilling machine is under pressure and exposed to the process fluid

Attach the Fully Retracted Flo-tap Assembly to the Valve

Threaded Flo-tap

Attach the Fully Retracted Flo-tap Assembly to the Valve

Flanged Flo-tap – Use a hoist strap and crane if needed

Quickly Open and Close the Valve to Pressurize the Annubar, Check for Leaks

If Leaks are Present, Tighten the Packing Gland Nuts

Loosen the Insertion Limiting Nuts

Simultaneously Tighten the Insertion Drive Nuts to Insert the Annubar

Lower the Head Plate Lock and Full Insertion Marking Nuts to the Head Plate

Head Plate Lock Nut

Full Insertion Marking Nuts

To Retract the Annubar – Loosen the Retraction Limiting Nuts

Retraction Limiting Nuts (Same as Insertion Drive Nuts)

Loosen the Retraction Drive Nuts to Retract the Annubar

Other Installation Considerations During insertion, the rods can twist and the top

plate and support can come out of alignment.– Makes insertion difficult– Hit the top plate with a rubber to put them back in-line
