How to Install the XJG-EMT Expansion Joint
This guide provides step-by-step instructions for installing the XJG-EMT Expansion Joint with Electrical Metallic Tubing (EMT). This joint is designed to accommodate longitudinal movement in conduit runs caused by thermal expansion and contraction, providing a continuous electrical conductor without external bonding.
Estimated time: 20m
Tools needed:
Pipe wrench
Supplies needed:
Electrical Metallic Tubing (EMT)
- Insert Electrical Metallic Tubing
Ensure the XJG-EMT Expansion Joint is pre-assembled, as no disassembly is required. The gland nut comes partially tightened from the factory to facilitate easy insertion. Insert the prepared Electrical Metallic Tubing (EMT) into each end of the expansion joint fitting.
- Secure the Gland Nut
Using a pipe wrench, firmly tighten the gland nut at the end of the EMT connector. Refer to the Torque Chart for correct torque specifications: for 3/4” (21) & Smaller, apply 90.4 N•m (800 lbl-in); for 1”, 1-1/4”, & 1-1/2” (27, 35 & 41), apply 113 N•m (1000 lbl-in); and for 2” (53) & Larger, apply 181 N•m (1600 lbl-in). This action will compress the Teflon packing, creating a rain-tight seal around the tubing.
- Center the Internal Bushing
Position the internal bushing in the middle of the expansion joint fitting (XJG-EMT). This crucial step ensures that the conduit can move equally in both directions, allowing for the specified 2 or 4 inches of movement from the center, totaling 4 or 8 inches of overall movement.
