Installing the Basic System
Mounting the Enclosure onto the Transducer
3-2 AutoPILOT PRO Flow Computer User Guide
Thermo Fisher Scientific
This section provides instructions on mounting the flow computer
enclosure onto a transducer (direct mounting). If you do not need to do
to mount the enclosure onto a 2-inch
pole.
Mounting the enclosure directly onto a transducer requires the direct
mounting kit for the enclosure and a transducer kit. The instructions below
combine the documentation provided with both kits. Refer to the
individual kit documentation for additional details.
Warning
Ensure that power is off and the area is non-hazardous before
performing this procedure.
Warning
Installation must be carried out in accordance with local site
requirements and regulations.
Caution
To prevent the heavier liquid components from entering into the
process heads of the flow transducer, mount the transducer above the
process lines and have the impulse lines from the process slope up to the
transducer or go directly up from the process lines to the transducer.
Tip
The instructions for mounting metal and fiberglass enclosures onto a
transducer are the same.
1. From the rear of the enclosure, align the direct mounting bracket with
the enclosure’s bottom set of mounting tabs.
2. Facing the enclosure, place a washer over one of the bottom mounting
tabs. Insert the cap screw through the mounting and bracket holes. Do
the same for the other side.
3. Secure the direct mounting bracket to the enclosure by placing a washer
and split lock washer over the cap screw and fastening everything with a
nut.
