4. INSTALLATION
4.3 Transmitter Mounting
The transmitter can be mounted on a nominal 50
mm (2-inch) pipe using the mounting bracket
supplied, as shown in Figure 4.3.1. The transmitter
can be mounted on either a horizontal or a vertical
pipe.
When mounting the bracket on the transmitter,
tighten the (four) bolts that hold the transmitter to a
torque of approximately 39 N·m {4 kgf·m}.

IMPORTANT
Never loosen the four screws securing the cover
flange or the screws at the joints between the
capillary tube and cover flanges (if the seal liquid
leaks, the transmitter cannot be used).
IMPORTANT
The transmitter should be installed at least 600
mm below the high pressure (HP) process
connection to ensure a positive head pressure of
fill fluid. Pay special attention to vacuum applica-
tions. If it can not be installed at least 600 mm
below the HP process connection, please use
