Mounting
The PD6830 has two slotted mounting flanges that may be used for pipe mounting or 
wall mounting. Alternatively, the unit may be supported by the conduit using the 
conduit holes provided. 
Refer to Mounting Dimensions, page 52 for details.
WARNING
Do not attempt to loosen or remove flange bolts while the meter is 
in service. 
Cover Jam Screw
The cover jam screw should be properly installed once the meter has been wired and 
tested in a safe environment. The cover jam screw is intended to prevent the removal 
of the meter cover in a flameproof environment without the use of tools. Using a M2 
hex wrench, turn the screw clockwise until the screw contacts the meter. Turn the 
screw an additional 1/4 to 1/2 turn to secure the cover. Caution: Excess torque may 
damage the threads and/or wrench. 
Connections
WARNINGS
 Static electricity can damage sensitive components. 
 Observe safe handling precautions for static-sensitive components. 
 Use proper grounding procedures/codes. 
 If the meter is installed in a high voltage environment and a fault or 
installation error occurs, high voltage may be present on any lead or 
terminal. 
To access the connectors, loosen the cover jam screw (if tightened) with an M2 hex 
wrench, remove the enclosure cover and unscrew the two captive screws that fasten 
the display module into the enclosure. Disconnect the ribbon cable and remove the 
display module. Power and signal connections are made to a barrier terminal 
connector in the base of the enclosure. Grounding connections are made to the two 
ground screws provided on the base – one internal and one external. Use proper 
grounding techniques for explosion-proof areas and observe all local and national 
electric codes.
