57-606 ECLIPSE Model 706 Guided Wave Radar Transmitter
2.0
Complete Installation
This section provides detailed procedures for properly
installing, wiring, and configuring the ECLIPSE Model 706
Guided Wave Radar Level Transmitter.
2.1
Unpacking
Unpack the instrument carefully. Make sure all components
have been removed from the packing material. Check all the
contents against the packing slip and report any discrepan-
cies to the factory.
Before proceeding with the installation, do the following:
• Inspect all components for damage. Report any damage to
the carrier within 24 hours.
• Make sure the nameplate model number on the probe and
transmitter agree with the packing slip and purchase order.
• Record the model and serial numbers for future reference
when ordering parts.
Model Number
Serial Number
For optimal performance (and correlation to the Calibration
Certificate included with all units), confirm the model and
serial numbers shown on the nameplates of the ECLIPSE
probe and transmitter are identical.
NOTES: For applications using the Model 7yS Steam Probe, it is
mandatory to keep the transmitter and probe matched as a set.
(Refer to section 3.2.5 for additional information regarding sat-
urated steam applications.)
To avoid moisture ingress in the housing, covers should be fully
tightened at all times. For same reason, conduit entries should
be properly sealed.
2.2
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD)
Handling Procedure
MAGNETROL electronic instruments are manufactured to
the highest quality standards. These instruments use elec-
tronic components that may be damaged by static electricity
present in most work environments.
The following steps are recommended to reduce the risk of
component failure due to electrostatic discharge.
• Ship and store circuit boards in anti-static bags. If an anti-
static bag is not available, wrap the board in aluminum
foil. Do not place boards on foam packing materials.
