Threaded Penetrator - Installation Pictorial

System consist of a 12 inch length of threaded rigid conduit, (2) large washers, (2) threaded couplings, (2) threaded bushings, a documentation/warning label, and a package of Unique Putty. 

Pre drill the hole in advance.  BE SURE to drill to the Outside Diameter of the System you will be using. A 4 inch System will require a 4 & 1/2 inch hole minimum! Most people will drill a 5 inch hole for the 4 inch Threaded Penetrator.  

Remove the documentation warning label.

Disassemble one side of the system. Adjust the coupling, washer and bushing so that the sleeve will protrude evenly on both sides when installed.  

Feed the System in to the hole you have pre drilled. Go below and install the other half of the hardware.
The vertical application of the Threaded Penetrator requires the sleeve be packed (3 inch depth) with mineral wool batt insulation.   This keeps gravity from having any effect on the intumescent putty. This System used horizontally, needs no wool batt.
When the cables reach their destination, install an min. 1/2 inch thickness of Unique Putty per the vertical application. This System used horizontally, needs a min. 1 inch thickness of putty. See U.L. Systems in the menu above.
Fill out and install the documentation/warning label and take a photo of your completed installation for future reference.
