Determining Mag Probe Length
Determining Mag Probe Length
1.
Measure the distance from the bottom of the tank to the top of the probe manway, or the 2-, 3- or 4-inch tank
opening- this is the minimum probe length (ref. Figure 9).
2.
The probe canister must be within the riser pipe (minimum length of 10 inches [254mm]).
Figure 9. Determining the Minimum Mag Probe Length
Determining Mag Probe Length for Installation in a Vapor Extractor Riser
1.
Measure the distance from the top of the riser to the Extractor Cage Cross Pin (see Figure 10). Record this
distance as “D1” (Important - Dimension “D1” must be at least 25 inches).

from the riser.
