Chapter 1. Installation
1.6 Mounting the XGF868i Electronics Enclosure
The standard XGF868i electronics package is housed in a Type-4X weather-resistant enclosure suitable for indoor or
outdoor use. Refer to Figure 5 on page 19 for the mounting dimensions and the weight of this enclosure.
The XGF868i electronics enclosure is fitted with a mounting boss that has a single 3/4” NPT-F threaded hole at its
center and four 1/4-20 tapped holes at its corners. By using this mounting boss, the electronics enclosure may be
mounted by any of the typical techniques shown in Figure 6 on page 20 .
1.7 Making the Electrical Connections
This section contains instructions for making all the necessary electrical connections to the XGF868i flow transmitter.
Refer to Figure 7 on page 21 for a complete wiring diagram.
Except for the power connector, all electrical connectors are stored on their terminal blocks during shipment and
may be removed from the enclosure for more convenient wiring. Simply, feed the cables through the conduit holes
on the side of the enclosure, attach the wires to the appropriate connectors and plug the connectors back onto their
terminal blocks.
WARNING!
Proper grounding of the XGF868i chassis is required to prevent possible electric
shock. See Detail A in Figure 6 on page 20 for the location of the chassis grounding
screw.
