NSTALLATION
Care must be taken not to damage the thermistor probe
protruding from the sensing head on units so equipped
.
1. Installation
1.1 Site Selection
The E-Scan console can be mounted in any area where ambient conditions allow personnel to
remain for extended periods. The cabinet is Nema 4X rated and should be kept closed.

1.2 Power Requirements
The A.C. power should be supplied from a line which is not
subjected to power interruptions or heavy inductive loads. A.C.
power can be 120/220 VAC at 50 or 60 Hertz.
1.3 Attaching the Sensing Head
The sensing head as received may have a calibration cup
installed, if purchased.
The sensing head is attached to the process line by an adapter
which can be carbon steel, stainless steel (316) or a material
specified by the customer. This adapter must not be placed in an
area where vibration is severe or excessive.
Sensing Head to Adapter
Positioning.
If the sensing head is to be mounted on a horizontal pipe, the head
should be mounted in a horizontal plane (parallel with the ground)
on the side of the pipe (not the top or the bottom).
If the sensing head is to be mounted on a vertical pipe, the fluid
flow should be upward. The arrow on the adapter should point in
the direction of fluid flow. (See Head to Adapter Positioning.)
To facilitate fast thermal response the tip and walls of the probe
are very thin making it somewhat fragile.
