2. Installation
ProcessPro transmitters are available in two styles: panel mount and fi eld mount. The panel mount is supplied with the necessary
hardware to install the transmitter. This manual includes complete panel mounting instructions.
Field mounting requires one of two separate mounting kits. The 3-8051 Integral Mounting Kit joins the sensor and instrument together
into a single package. The 3-8050 Universal Mounting Kit enables the transmitter to be installed virtually anywhere.
Detailed instructions for integral mounting or other fi eld installation options are included with the 3-8051 Integral Mounting Kit or the
3-8050 Universal Mounting Kit (see Ordering Information).
