ULTRA Series - Hot Tap Assembly
Array
The ULTRA Series Hot Tap assembly provides the most extreme form of protection for sensors that require ease of access in/out of tough applications that require ease of access in/out of an application. Tough applications require more frequent access for cleaning and maintenance, and it’s imperative this can be done easily and safely. Turtle Tough's Hot Tap assembly permits fast and easy insertion and removal of sensors directly into process tanks or pipes at up to 100 PSIG pressures. The Hot Tap assembly is customisable for extreme applications, offering single or double block and bleed configurations, single or dual flush and a wide variety of material selections.
- Safely insert or remove sensors live from the process
- Safely insert or remove sensors live from the process
- Fully encapsulates the sensor for ultimate protection and longevity
- 316 Stainless Steel (Standard material of construction)
Optional materials: Titanium, Super Duplex (SAF) or KYNAR - Single drain or Dual flush
- 2” Configuration Standard
Optional 1.5” - Single or double block and bleed
The Turtle Tough ULTRA Series Hot Tap assembly is our most trusted valve retractable assembly for tough applications. The Hot Tap assembly is designed to work with any Turtle Tough Hot Tap inline sensors that feature the part number (INL). This double-wall thickness sensor with temperature compensation located in the tip and front-end sealing O-rings, is exclusively designed to work with the Inline insertion tube to fully encapsulate the sensor for ultimate protection and longevity. The Hot Tap assembly consists of four main components:
- Ball valve with an adjacent retractable chamber with a drain valve (Main body)
- Insertion Tube
- Inline sensor Holder
- Compression Fitting
Ball Valve - (Main Body)
- Safely operate at pressures up to 100 PSIG
- Standard 2" assembly designed for viscous slurries
- Front-end mating thread 2" MNPT (flange optional)
- Drain valve to flush the retractable chamber or release pressure (Dual Flush optional)
- Supports the use of any Turtle Tough Sanitary Inline (INL) sensor body type with 3/4" rear end threads
- Materials of construction 316 SS. Optional: Titanium (Ti), Super Duplex (SAF), KYNAR

Optional Mating Fittings:
- Flange for process side mating connection. For those requiring a flange for process side connection, this can be supplied. Must be specified at the time of order (POA).
IMPORTANT:
Please review all Turtle Tough guidelines about installation recommendations. Many sensors (particularly pH) are position sensitive and need to be installed at the appropriate angle. Never exceed the stated specifications or physical limits of either the sensor or the hardware, and always apply the lowest limit rating as the maximum threshold. This assembly is not to be used with any 3rd party equipment.
