stem housing. Remove the two top stem clamp nuts and loosen two stem
clamp bolts. Slide the stem clamp away to expose the packing gland nuts.
Loosen the two packing gland nuts.

3. Align the sensor head using the sensor alignment pointer. Adjust the

alignment pointer parallel to the pipe and pointing downstream.

downstream, in the

direction of flow.

4. Insert the sensor head into the pipe until insertion length, I, is achieved.

Do not force the stem into the pipe.
