NOTE
Each transmitter is marked with a tag indicating the approvals. Install the
transmitter according to all applicable installation codes, and approval and
installation drawings (see Appendix B: Product Certifications). Verify that the
operating atmosphere of the transmitter is consistent with the hazardous
locations certifications. Once a device labeled with multiple approval types is
installed, it should not be reinstalled using any of the other labeled approval
types. To ensure this, the approval label should be permanently marked to
distinguish the approval type(s) used.
Installation
When choosing an installation location and position, take access to the
transmitter into account.
Terminal Side of Electronics Housing
Mount the transmitter so the terminal side is accessible, allowing adequate
clearance for cover removal. Make wiring connections through the conduit
openings on the bottom of the housing.
Circuit Side of Electronics Housing
Mount the transmitter so the circuit side is accessible, providing adequate
clearance for cover removal. Additional room is required for LCD installation.
The transmitter may be mounted directly to or remotely from the sensor.
Using optional mounting brackets, the transmitter may be mounted to a flat
surface or a 2.0 inch (50.8) diameter pipe (see “Mounting” on page A-2).
Software Compatibility
Replacement transmitters may contain revised software that is not fully
compatible with the existing software. The Field Communicator and AMS
software containing device descriptors for the 3144 (before December 2001)
do not fully support the new features of the 3144P. The Device Descriptors
(DD) are available with new communicators or they can be loaded into
existing communicators at any Emerson Process Management Service
Center.
