Installation

2.1 Location and connecting cables

Location
Do not expose the compact flow meter to direct sunlight in hot climates. Install a sunshade if necessary.

Connecting cables
To conform to protection category requirements, observe the following recommendations:
• Fit blanking plug and apply sealant to unused cable entries.
• Do not kink cables directly at cable entries.
• Provide water drip point (U bend in cable).
• Do not connect rigid conduit to cable entries.
• Only cables of diameter 7 to 12 mm or ¼” to ½” can be used.

2.2 Connection

to power


Please ensure that the information about power given on the data plate corresponds to the locally
available mains voltage.

• Note information given on the instrument data plate (voltage, frequency)!
• Electrical connection in conformity with IEC 364 or equivalent national standard. Special regulations

apply to installation in hazardous areas. (See supplementary installation and operating instructions)

• The PE protective ground conductor must be connected to the separate U-clamp terminal in the

terminal box of the signal converter.

• Do not cross or loop the cables in the terminal box of the signal converter. Use separate cable glands

for power and output cables.

• Ensure that the screw thread of the round cover on the terminal box is well greased at all times.

Note:
• The grease used must be non-corrosive to aluminium; typically it must be resin- and acid-free.
• Protect sealing ring from damage.
