3.3.2. LX Piping Adapter Sealing Mechanism – HI Modules (BSP Female)
The female threads in the LX HI module endblock are BSP parallel threads. They are
NOT TAPERED pipe threads and the threads DO NOT CREATE the seal, they allow the
sealing surfaces to move towards each other and they hold the piping adapter in place.
The seal comes from a separate flat silicone gasket inserted in the endblock. See Figure
3-4, below.

tape or any other pipe sealant (such as pipe dope) on the
BSP thread adapters, whether male or female. The use of these products on the BSP
threads will prevent proper sealing of the adapters.
