4. Installation
4.1 Precautions
Before installing the transmitter, read the cautionary
notes in section 2.4, “Selecting the Installation
Location.” For additional informations and
limitations according to the selected model, suffix
and option codes, please find information in each
General Specifications sheet.
IMPORTANT
• When welding piping during construction,
take care not to allow welding currents to
flow through the transmitter.
• Do not step on this instrument after
installation.
• For the EJ
430
and EJ
440
, the
atmospheric opening is located on the low
pressure side cover flange. The opening
must not face upward.
• When installing a process connector, make
sure that no foreign matter has adhered to
the seal surface of the gasket (or O-ring)
before assembly. If foreign matter adheres,
it may lead to leaks. In the case of O-rings,
it is known that the sealing performance can
be improved by applying grease. If grease is
not used, make sure that no foreign matter is
attached.
4.2 Mounting
■ The transmitter is shipped with the process
connection, according to the ordering
specifications. To change the orientation of the
process connections, refer to section 4.3.
■ With differential pressure transmitters,
the distance between the impulse piping
connection ports is usually 54 mm (figure 4.1).
By changing the orientation of the process
connector, the dimension can be changed to 51
mm or 57 mm.
■
The transmitter can be mounted on a nominal
50 mm (2-inch) pipe using the mounting
bracket supplied, as shown in figure 4.2 and
4.3 The transmitter can be mounted on either a
horizontal or a vertical pipe.
■
When mounting the bracket on the transmitter,
tighten the (four) bolts that hold the transmitter
with a torque of approximately 39 N·m {4kgf·m}.

Figure 4.1 and 4.2 shows the mounting of the
transmitter for horizontal piping and vertical piping
with using the mounting bracket. The transmitters
with the installation code -U (Universal flange) can
be used for either type of mounting.
