Quick Setup Guide
NOTE: Observe the following safety guidelines before
installing or removing your CLASSIC switch/transmitter:
•
Use proper eye protection and any other safety
equipment as required by your installation site.
•
Check electrical power to ensure that all power has
been disconnected and “locked out.”
•
Ensure the process tank or line pressures
are “zero.”
•
Protect yourself against accidental release of
steam, hot water, acids and other potentially
hazardous media.
•
Follow all safety precautions as specified for your
installation site and local codes.
1.
Before installing your CLASSIC, coat the sensor
threads with plant-approved lubricant or sealant to
prevent threads from binding.
2.
Extra caution should be taken not to over-tighten
the sensor threads while installing.
3.
Install the CLASSIC, taking into account the
orientation of the sensor as described below.
4.
Keep in mind the need for easy access, safety
of personnel and a suitable environment for the
CLASSIC. In general, install the CLASSIC so as
to minimize its exposure to vibration, shock, and
extreme temperature fluctuations.
The CLASSIC sensor is marked with the universal symbol
. This surface should be flat up and level in a
horizontal flow application only. Refer to
Figures 1
and
2
for flow and level applications; this surface of the hex should
be parallel to the direction of change in the process.
