HOT TAP INSTALLATION DETAIL FOR THERMOWELL
In Welded Pipe
***CAUTION***
SYSTEM MAY BE UNDER HIGH PRESSURE. When adjusting the thermowell position or removing it, be sure to hold
the conduit box firmly by hand before SLOWLY loosening the positioning clamping nut. Failure to do this will allow the
pressure to suddenly and rapidly force the thermowell from the pipe and someone could be seriously injured if struck by
the thermowell. The thermowell could also be damaged or break apart causing a break in the water seal with the resultant
loss of large amounts of water.
