Abstract
Methods of inserting a sensor assembly into a flow pipe are disclosed. The methods may include fastening a preload nut into a hot tap housing, applying force to at least one handle connected to a stem to insert the sensor assembly into the flow pipe, and fastening a collar onto the stem. In one example, the collar is between the preload nut and the hot tap housing. And, in one example, the methods may include tightening the preload nut into the hot tap housing until the preload nut bottoms out at a hard stop.
