Installation
2.1 INTRODUCTION
2.1.1 General.
The DXp-10/15 is designed to 'installed within the
length of the load cell(s) cable which is normally
35 ft or less. The standard NEMA 4 or optional
NEMA 4X enclosures are suitable for an outdoor
or wash down type environment. Both enclosures
are provided with pre-punched holes for
installation of conduit or cable fittings and holes for
mounting to a bracket or wall.
2.2 MOUNTING
2.2.1 Standard Units.
The NEMA 4 and NEMA 4X enclosures are
equipped with four pre-punched holes for
mounting to a wall or bracket. A U-bolt can be
used for mounting to a pipe support. The
instrument should be installed in a vibration-free
location within the normal length of the load cell
cables. If conduit is used, drains should be
provided to reduce the possibility of condensate
entering the enclosure. Outline dimensions for the
standard DXp¬10/15 transmitter are presented in
Figure 2-1.
2.2.2 Explosion-Proof and Division 2
Options.
DXp units may be ordered with an optional
explosion-proof enclosure for use in Division I
hazardous locations. Dimensions for the optional
explosion-proof enclosure are provided in
Appendix C.
For Division 2 applications, FM approved units are
available as non-incendive devices in NEMA 4/4X
enclosures with dimensions identical to those
