1.6 Installation checklist
□ Safety messages are provided throughout this content to protect personnel and
equipment. Read each safety message carefully before proceeding to the next step.
□ When choosing a location for components, refer to the following guidelines:
— See the sensor installation manual for information on locating the sensor with
remote-mount or extended-mount electronics.
— Do not install a component in a location where its temperature, humidity, or
vibration limits will be exceeded.
— Maximum distance between components depends on the wire size, the wire type,
and the power supply. Ensure that sufficient power is supplied to the transmitter
terminals.
□
WARNING
If you plan to mount the transmitter in a hazardous area:
— Verify that the transmitter has the appropriate hazardous area approval. Each
transmitter has a hazardous area approval tag attached to the transmitter housing.
— Ensure that any cable used between the transmitter and the sensor meets the
hazardous area requirements.
— For all hazardous area installations, you must strictly adhere to the safety
instructions documented in the ATEX/IECEx and CSA approvals documentation
available on the product documentation DVD shipped with the product or at
Emerson.com/flowmeasurement, and /or with requirements specified by the local
Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ) over the installation.
□ Verify that you have the appropriate cable and required cable installation parts for your
installation. For wiring between the transmitter and sensor, verify the maximum cable
length does not exceed 60 ft (20 m).
□ The transmitter can be mounted in any orientation as long as the conduit openings do
not point upward.
NOTICE
Installing the transmitter with the conduit openings or transmitter display facing
upward risks condensation moisture entering the transmitter housing, which could
damage the transmitter.
□ Any fittings, adapters, or blanking elements used on either conduit entries or threaded
joints that are a part of flame-proof joints must comply with the requirements of EN/IEC
60079-1 & 60079-14 or CSA C22.2 No 30 & UL 1203 for Europe/International and North
America respectively.
Only qualified personnel can select and install these elements in accordance with
EN/IEC 60079-14 for ATEX/IECEx or to National Electrical Code (NEC)/Canadian Electrical
Code (CEC) for North America.
□ To prevent conduit connectors from seizing in the threads of the conduit openings,
apply a conductive anti-galling compound to the threads.
Any anti-galling compound used on Flamepath threads must comply with the
requirements of EN/IEC 60079-1 & 60079-14 or CSA C22.2 No 30 & UL 1203 for Europe/
International and North America respectively.
