6.1 Installation of the Field Mount Housing
6.1.1 Inspection
Before installing the converter, check for physical damage due to possible improper handling during ship-
ment. All claims for damage are to be made promptly to the shipper.
6.1.2 Installing the Converter
The installation site for the converter must be essentially vibration free, see Specifications. The specified tem-
perature limits of -20 °C and +60 °C are to be maintained. The max. signal cable length between the con-
verter and the flowmeter primary fo 50 m for the standard design and 200 m for the design with a preamplifier
may not be exceeded.
Field Mount Housing
The housing is designed for Protection Class IP 67 (EN 60529). The housing is mounted using 4 screws see
Fig. 19.
Exchanging a Converter
The converter modules are identical in function for all flowmeter sizes and can be readily exchanged. Assure
that the replacement converter has the same supply power specifications and in- and output options. After
the exchange, the meter location parameters are automatically uploaded into the new converter.
Important!
When selecting the mounting site for a converter, assure that it will not be exposed to direct sunlight. The
ambient temperature limits are to be observed. If exposure to direct sunlight cannot be avoided, a sun shade
should be installed.
